I’m gonna take a wild guess here. Max Boot is the LAT’s token conservative or token Republican, right?
Max Boot is a Neoconservative or NeoCon and he doesn't work for LAT, its an editorial.
Does anyone remember the last big NeoCon event? Just a few weeks ago. Bill Kristol, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Paul Bremmer, and others making the rounds wanting to re-invade Iraq.
The NeoCons don't like Obama's foreign policy, except for Libya. Back there in 2011 when Obama made the decision to intervene the NeoCons were very pleased. At that time Bill Kristol proclaimed Obama to be a "Born Again NeoCon"
