big govt-Welfare state-internationalists

Really??

[Destro]

A Freudian slip on your part?? - So are you saying our current Iraq mission is really linked to preserving the state of Israel? Because I read this article and I saw no mention of the state of Israel.

[Destro]

In 1979, Irving Kristol wrote in favour of "a conservative welfare state", because, for him, it was "perfectly consistent with the neoconservative principles".

[nopardons]

You have NO idea what the neo-con "agenda" is,nor even IF they have one;yet you don't like them,don't even really know who is a neo-con,nor what that term means.

Some people use neo-con as a pejorative,to slur Jews.Some people on FR,use it as a slur,to smear anyone and everyone who doesn't agree 100% with them.

Tell me,do neo-cons,such as Ronald Reagan,spout "drivel"?

Though admittedly Reagan was still singing FDR's praises,when Reagan was in the White House,just what part of his "AGENDA" was the new and improved,newly repackaged, dangerous leftist inspired drivel you talk of?

[nopardons]

Then,quite simply,you really are NOT a Conservative at all.

[Joe Hadenuf]

He was Laura Bush's guest at the State of the Union. He had enough access that we paid him several million dollars.

Oh man........

[nopardons]

I just looked.You may be correct...re his age.

[Joe Hadenuf]

But I would trust a libertarian and a paleo over a neocon ANY DAY.

That makes two of us.

[DonaldDuke]

Democrats like Richard Perle

Perle is a Democrat?? Would he happen to be Jewish too?

[Texasforever]

That makes two of us.

Dang you can count.

[Joe Hadenuf]

you lefty cum neocons like to throw out the anti-semite charge like Al Sharpton throws out the charge of "racist" every time he was exposed and why not?

Yes they do, like clock work....

[Destro]

Neocons: new and improved, newly repackaged, dangerous leftist inspired drivel.

Nice way of putting it.

I would also add - when challenged hide behind the smear of 'anti-semite' - a new and improved version of Al Sharpton's tactics.

[Texasforever]

How old are you?

[Joe Hadenuf]

Hey, it's neopardons!

[Joe Hadenuf]

He was Laura Bush's guest at the State of the Union. He had enough access that we paid him several million dollars.

Down right scary stuff.....

[Destro]

Old enough to vote.

[Cold Heat]

Clinton was the one who brought him into the fold.

he was used, paid and now is asked to leave.

I think he should go to Jordan where they have a nice comfy room waiting for him with the rent paid for some 22 years.

[Texasforever]

Old enough to vote.

Mores the pity. You do realize that the arming of the Muhajdin in Afghanistan thet led the Soviets to defeat was the single most important element of the downfall of the USSR?

[Destro]

A popular revisionits myth. The Soviet backed Afghanis stayed on in power in Kabul 10 plus years after the Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan and then remained as the Northern Alliance after.

What caused the fall of the Soviet Union was not Afghanistan - but cheap oil and gas prices which deprived the USSR of hard currency via oil and gas exports.

Clinton was the one who brought him into the fold.

LOL! One of these day, you guys are going to have to give up blaming Clinton for everything. Last I checked, that idiot hasn't been President for several years now. Hehehe.
