Most people tell me I'm wise beyond my years.
Google "Paul Gottfried Irving Kristol" and see what you find.
I know who Kristol is, but I'm really not concerned with things like that. There's no solid truth on how man and his thinking have evolved over the years, only people perceptions and theories of them.
Lol. Seeing your indifference to broadening your knowledge, I'd say you would be wiser if you didn't listen to such flattery.
Kristol is the 'godfather' of the movement and Paul Gottfried one of neoconservatism's more perceptive critics- contra sinkspur who obviously believes neocon = Jew, which would be news to the good Mr Gottfried.
