How come all you neocons that are so busy rationalizing a moral base for

All neocons? Painting with a rather wide brush here, yes?

What *exactly* is a "neocon"?

I'd prefer a definition that will endure more than 24 hours. I've
seen too many times when "fighting fundamentalists" and political
liberals would change a definition to fit their own preferance at a
given time.

IE the fundamentalists' use of the word "New-Evangelical". Follow
that word from 1957 till now as defined by Bob Jones and David Cloud.
What it amounts to is that anyone who disagrees with their
narrow-minded ideology is a "new-evangelical".

I'm seeing the same narrow-mindedness from political liberals. Anyone
who is not a political liberal is a neocon.

Neo indicates "new". I'm not new to conservatism. Been here forever.
Till the "other side" can produce something better than Clintons and
Gores and Kerrys and Kennedys, I'll be right here.
