It's rather simple; do you wish to conserve your local idenity (your state, your county, your town, your neighborhood) or do wish to 'conserve' some national identity which is currently defined by centralized government, foreign wars, heavily regulated Consitutional rights, federal police forces, July 4, Walmart and McDonalds.

It's rather simple; do you wish to conserve your local idenity...

No, it isn't simple at all, since no one can agree on what "neo-con" even means. Ergo, the term itself has been rendered meaningless through misuse.

Just look at the comments on this thread. One person thinks the term describes the McCainiacs, while another thinks it defines anti-McCainiacs. Some thinks it refers to William F. Buckley while others think it refers to any conservative who is also a Jew (I've heard that explanation on FR). To some it means hard right, to others it means religious right, to others it means leftists, or moderates or Marxists... etc., etc.

Until we all agree on a brief but accurate definition, it is impossible to say what any of us are. And I'm not holding my breath on any agreement. :-)

I'll add something - just because a statute or program is not good policy from an ideological point of view does not automatically make it unconstitutional.

There are plenty of liberal programs, statutes and policies which are perfectly appropriate under the documents set forth by the founding fathers, and your job is to convince people otherwise without hyperbole.
