Absolutely. Somebody could wright a lengthy and probably interesting book about the position swaps the competing political ideologies have taken the last 300 years.

Just think, less than 50 years ago, Jack Kennedy campaigned on a platform of the (nuclear) missile deficit. By today's standards in the Democratic party, Kennedy was an ultra-hawk - and a supply-sider, but that's another conversation.
