Senior conservatives fought the good fight for decades, before it was popular, before communication ever favored free ideas.
Bunch of spoiled unruly freshmen showed up in 2001, melded 9-11 into a weapon for their leftist views, and now proceed to insult and dismiss the work of champions like Buckley and others.
It's cool to wear a varsity jacket -- but Neocons represent the airheaded girlfriends who stole them off the backs conservative athletes who earned them. (And then they go and cheat on them, naturally...)
This comment reminded me of a thread here the other night where people we getting all gushy about our new best friend Allen Derschowitz because he blasted the dismissal of Larry Summers.
When I see people who have lived their lives on the left suddenly rush to the conservative side, that concerns me. I wish to embrace all people who are animated by broadly conservative sentiments but I am concerned that some have come to us over one and only one issue.
Best analogy I've seen for the neocons.
That was one of the most creative analogies (Neocons as airheaded girlfriends, varsity jackets) that I have EVER read!
