Yes, the term neo-liberal is very fashionable with all you liberal Republicans, aka. "new" liberals.

[from Wikipedia, yet again]
The term neoliberalism does not mean a new version of the "liberalism"

I disagree with you on that point. Neo means new or recent. The modern political meaning for liberalism is quite clear. Big taxes, big spending, big government and social liberalism running wild.

The original meaning for classic liberal of the 18th&19th centuries, is pretty much dead in the contemporary world. It is not part of the American lexicon either.
