A blatant lie, and an incredibly stupid thing to say. Some of that is happening, but it is not because of conservative philosophy. The main difference between Paleocons and Neocons is that Neocons have evolved to recognize that in a world with ICBMs, Terrorism, etc. that an isolationist National Security policy does not and cannot work. We also recognize the communications revolution has made the world smaller and that the economy must adapt to it. Any Paleocon who disagrees demonstrates hypocrisy by actively participating in this by using things such as the internet and cell phones which have greatly contributed to this reality.
Nothing like a straw man argument to put one's mind at ease. So I suppose the only "paleo" conservatives are Amish?
Neocons are not conservatives. They are the globalists who will move to the left (Democrats) in a blink if it they find it expedient.
That, and Buchanan and his ilk keep finding ways of joining in on the anti-Israel discourse among the Left...a Left that USED to pat themselves on the back for being so horrified over Nazi treatment, but are perfectly willing to be apologists for Muslims and Palestinians who want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. And Israel has done nothing but support America whenever we needed them. When Buchanan becomes the perfect poster boy for the Leftist propoganda that conservatives are nothing but White Crackers under Hoods ready to kick a Jew when he's down, the LAST thing Im going to do as a REAL conservative is listen to him.
My take (and I find myself edging ever closer to traditional populists every year) is that what you call "paleos" are not so much nationalist as Ameerica Firsters. I don't mind at all putting the interests of Americans first.
Neos want also to avoid the nasty truth about the Balkan turnover to the radical Islamists. It was the doing of the neo intellectuals. Kristol, Krauthammer, Barnes, McCain, Biden and Albright joined up to prod Clinton into sending the US into the Balkan war. Clinton would never have done it without cover from "conservatives".
Don't believe me? Google these keywords "Neoconservative Balkans" and "Neoconservative Kristol Balkans" and read all your hegemonic heart desires from the American Prospect.
Neos have a lot to answer for. Now they want to hand over US sovereignty to Mexico, and with that--you've just lost Joe Sixpack. And there's a lot more Joes than elitist Fred Barnes out there.
9/11 proved how well open borders work.
BLATANT lie? Then, why do you in your next sentence say that "SOME" of it is true? There is nothing true about a blatant lie.
You are obviously a NEOCON!
The principles which constitute freedom are intrinsically connected to national identity and security. REMEMBER, 9/11, heck, both World Trade Center bombings never happened until we started compromising national security for open border trade policies. YOU KNOW as well as I that the greed of the financial/industrial cartels have created these policies and the NEOCONS are the puppets compromising long-held principles of Liberty, which has provided a purdy darn secure American until the STUPID Neocons took over.
Ah heck....you are not worth my time...
