Neocon = Neo-Nazi con-man?
Probably the most idiotic, misunderstood word in all political discussions is the word neocon. The way that liberals use it, you end up being surprised it wasn’t prefixed by the f word. Most liberals think this picture is a bulls-eye representation of President Bush, but think its mean to say bad things about Saddam or Iranian president Ahmadinejad.
Neo- means new, and obviously -con is conservative. Irving Kristol described a neoconservative as a “liberal mugged by reality.” By this definition, President Bush is not a neo-con, while Senator Joseph Lieberman is a perfect example. A liberal in all ways until 9/11, but thereafter subscribed to conservative stances on national defense.
Many of the other definition of neoconservatism do apply to President Bush, but the reference to this in present-day politics is almost entirely in reference to national security/defense policy. It has gotten to the point where I am thoroughly convinced the word has lost all actual meaning and now, to liberals, just means evil Bush person. The word neocon sounds evil, conjuring up the words neo-Nazi and con-man. Since President Bush has been called both a Nazi and a liar, it is not much of a stretch for some ignorant liberal kool-aid drinkers to use this term in this context without having the slightest clue what they are saying.

If it walks like a duck…..
Only a blinded by right wing propaganda fool wouldn’t notice what the Neo-cons have been doing for the last thirty eight years.
Only a liberal who bases their politics on Fahrenheit 9/11 could think the short little post above is a rebuttal to my analysis. Come back when you have some substance.
