I may be labeled a "neocon," but at least I can't be referred to as a "neo-Nazi" (hint-hint).

Actually, neo-con and paleo-con have these days entered into the code-speech set of the neo-nazis. Some of them have found that the old "88" and "14 words" is too crude and sounds unintellectual, not to mention that everyone are on to it.

Decoded:

Paleo-con: good nazi.
Neo-con: Race-traitor.

Useful knowledge when reading certain "libertarian" screeds.

Finally, where is your evidence that www.adlwatch.org is anti-semitic? That's a pretty serious charge to make based on nothing

Here ya go. Example Google entry for "adlwatch", from the grand falloon of NaziFeathers, "The Birdman" (you know, the guy with the dove constantly sh*tting in his air, perhaps as an anti-dandruff thing). Your site passes muster with flying clors.

Birdman Bryant: The Jewish Question
... Holocaust controversy (eg, the Zundelsite, CODOH and IHR), and while there are a few others devoted to digging up the ugly facts on Jews (eg, jewwatch, adlwatch ...

I am a proud neo-conservative. First of all I grew up and was raised in the birthplace of neo-conservatism: New York City. I am a huge fan of the Kristols and the Podhoretzes. Neoconservatism is the best of our movement. It is the one that is most open minded and receptive to beneficial change. It is the part of our movement that puts the individual and his/her rights above all else. Libertarianism is much more in agreement with the neocons than the paleocons. Speaking of paleocons, how are they devoted to Chicago school economics when they are overwhelmingly against free trade and skilled immigration not to mention foreign influences and technology? Which brings me to my beef with paleoconservatism. Most paleos ( not all) are incredibly narrow minded and ultra-nationalistic. Like it or not we are not going to return the U.S. to 19th Century values. And charges of bigotry against many paleos are legitimate. Joe Sobran for example recently spoke in front of an orgaization that denies the Holocaust. Sam Francis has repeatedly expressed his low opinion of ethnic minorities and Chilton Williamson still thinks that Eastern European immigrants should not have been allowed to come in the early 1900s. I am sorry but people who idolize the likes of De Maistre and Gobineau are not going to recieve any kind words from me. Yes neoconservatives were liberals back when being a liberal meant support for equal opportunity, freedom and anti-communism. Yes we even supported and still support some aspects of the Great Society. Well some of the social programs made problems worse and Civil Rights was turned into affirmative action so now we are fighting against the liberals not mugged by reality. Ronald Reagan was the original neo-conservative politican, a former liberal who became a conservative when he did not change but liberalism did. Finally neoconservatism is triumphant. Soon we will be able to drop our prefix and call ourselves conservatives just like Norman Podhoretz stated we should.

Gottfried is a big schmuck. He allies himself with white supremicists and other hate mongers. He idolizes the people who kept Jews out of Harvard and Yale in the old days. Well back in those days he would not had the opportunity to be a college professor at all.

Since when was protectionism an element of libertarian economics?

Dual loyalty. Nothing angers me more than when a person's loyalty to our nation is questioned because of their ethnic background. I am an American of Chinese descent so I am a little familiar with this type of bigotry as are many of my Asian and Jewish American friends.

As much as I disagree with the neocons, I have to say I appreciate your post. It's comprehensive, thorough, and honest.

I've always thought neocons were basically trying to "conserve" the status quo of the last 30 or 40 years, that status quo being a liberal one based on this country's recent electoral history. Neoconservatives are basically liberals who believe in a strong military (used for overseas adventures) and lower taxes, and they reject the excesses of the Hard Left.

Ditto. I call myself that every chance I get. I think it has done some good around here in doing that. Most mainstream conservatives, including the majority of folks here, have more neo in them than paleo. Cheers.

Actually we ARE conservatives. We do recognize a place for a limited welfare state but we also acknowledge the importance of reviving the dormant republican virtue tradition in this country and the necessity of taking the cultural high ground away from the liberals. Our signal contribution was to make conservatism intellectually respectable. Almost all the best ideas have come from conservatives in the last 20 years or so. One is hard pressed to name one original idea from the Left since that time. There is therefore absolutely no reason to beware of us. The only people who need to tremble are liberals and that is since we came from the Left we are familiar with how they think and are equipped with the means to paint them into a corner. I used to think we needed a pre-fix but in view of the changes since the Cold War, its unnecessary. The last thing conservatives need are internal divisions and let's concentrate our fire on our real adversary instead of on each other.

Who chooses to visit and link a site doesn't affect the character of the site one iota. That would be a logical fallacy. Try harder.

True. Your site, adlwatch, is Nazi filth no matter who visits.

I see google gives it pretty high marks in the Hate site cathegory. In fact, you seem to "outshine" David Duke :).

So, we have a Swiss nazi bumping around here. What do you think you're doing here, exactly?

Whether it's war with Iraq, overturning the Saudis, or inevitable conflict with China, neo-cons have been promoting foreign adventures for years

True enough. And for an equal number of years (actually, about 14 or so -- since Reagan left office), the paleos have been whining about foreign "adventures."

The simple fact is that we are the only true superpower in the world. If we do not take a leadership role, the resulting power vacuum will simply encourage the Husseins and bin Ladens of the world to pull their shenanigans. The alternative is not tenable -- like it or not, we are simply not self-sufficient enough in raw materials and manufactured goods to maintain the standard of living to which we have become accustomed. We need world markets to both buy in and sell in. We cannot go stick our heads in the sand anymore (or in any other place, especially the orifices that the paleos prefer.)

Lol. I'm just poking around a bit based on your site, adlwatch. You're into quite a few interesting things, DiP.

"Labor Committee on the Middle East"? A call for resuming the Hebron intifada???

No wonder Mr. Lied thought you'd be a good dance partner ;).

Sure Reagan was neocon-influenced, but to what degree relative to paleo-con influenced? I'd say da Gippa was 99% Paleo and 1% Neo.

Reagan was "99% paleocon influenced" eh? Wow. That explains why Pat Buchanan was his Sec. of Commerce, Samuel Francis his Attorney General, and Robert Novack his speechwriter. His favorite paper was "Stormfront" and his favorite magazine "The New American."

I guess I just dreamed about all those neocons in his adminstration, like Jeanne Kirkpatrick and Richard Pearle.

Every time I see that term "paleoconservative" I think of dinosaurs, large lumbering bodies, very small brains. :)

I think I will start a website. Anti-Semite WingnutWatch. ;)

Actually, the dinosaurs were alive during the Mesozoic Era and were quite advanced compared to the life forms of the Paleozoic, which consisted mostly of brachiopods (little, clam-like mollusks) and trilobites (scurrying, roach-like, bottom-feeders).

Make of that what you will.... :-)

Well the reason some of us are a little sensitive to ethnic accusations is because they have been thrown at us. I apologize if you never intended an ethnic implication but plenty of paleocons do. Especially when they talk about Zionist domination of neoconservatism or foreign students and engineers stealing our technology.
