While I agree with him that disagreeing with the statement "the US Constitution is an irrelevant, ineffective mistake" is a Republican position, and while it is probably true that neo-conservatives also would disagree with him on it, I don't think that disagreeing with that asinine comment by him makes one a Republican nor a neoconservative.

It doesn't get any more succint than that.
