Rush, here's some sources.
George Will is a DemocRAT who got SO OFFENDED by the DemocRATS, that he couldn't tolerate being associated with all those "CRAZIES" .
Now for a deeper understanding of just WHO George Will IS:
The word "neocons" is ONLY used by LIBERALS, trying to insult Conservatives.
The is no such thing as a "NEW" Conservative.
Conservatives ARE Conservative, plain and simple.
But read this"Liberals, Conservatives, and Neocons Learn the Difference!
March 12, 2014
Almost everybody is confused about the word "neoconservative" and its shortened form, "neocon."
I find that liberals/Democrats seem to use it as a sort of disrespectful form of "conservative,"and probably have no idea the the words have distinct meanings.
On the other hand, I know of some conservatives who define it as "new conservatives,"meaning people who were formerly something else, but have converted to conservatism.
Both are wrong.
As near as I can tell, "neo-" doesn't apply to any other word that way formerly not X, but having become X.
No, "neo-" almost always refers to an ideology that is different from the root word in a significant way.Neoconfederates are not people who want to secede and become a separate country.
They want the ideals of the Confederacy to be applied to modern politics, more or less, but not all of them.
Neoliberal is a more vague term,but it specifically applies to people who may have SOME of the attributes of liberals,
but who contradict liberalism in their advocacy of free trade and privatization
and other ideas usually thought of as conservative.
And, finally, neoconservatives are mostly those moderate cold war LIBERALS who defected to the Republican party when the Democrats got totally flaky with McGovern and his ilk.
Their ultimate origin, however, is not the Democratic party but the Trotskyite movement.
Jack Kerwick elaborates.
Read this: Most "Conservatives" Are Secretly Neoconservatives
12 March, 2014, by Jack Kerwick, Ph.D.
A colleague of mine has drawn my attention to a Washington Post blog post Why Most Conservatives Are Secretly Liberals by a Professor John Sides, a political scientist at Georgetown University.
Sides agrees with fellow political scientists Christopher Ellis and James Stimson, co-authors of Ideology in America.
Ellis and Stimson CONTEND thatAmerica is, at bottom, a center-left nation,
for while 30 percent of self-described liberals are consistent in endorsing liberal policy prescriptions,
the same sort of consistency can be ascribed to only 15 percent of conservatives.
And another 30 percent of conservatives actually advance liberal positions.
In short, Americans may TALK the talk of conservatism, but they WALK the walk of liberalism.
That is, they favor Big Government.
Sides, Ellis, and Stimson, it seems clear to me, are liberals.
It doesnt require much reading between the lines to discern this.
That they associate liberals, and liberals ALONE, with such virtues as consistency and such lofty ideals as a cleaner environment and a stronger safety net is enough to bear this out.
Yet in peddling the ridiculous, patently absurd notion thatconservatives see the media as PROMOTING conservatism,
the verdict regarding their liberalism is seen for the NO-BRAINER that it is.
There is, though, another CLUE that unveils Sides, Ellis, and Stimsons ideological PREJUDICES:They equate the term liberalism with a robust affirmation of Big Government.
They treat liberalism synonymously with its modern, Welfare-Statist incarnation.
There is no mention here of the fact that, originally, liberalism referred toa vision that attached supreme value to individual liberty,
a vision in which government played, and had to play, a minimal role in the lives of its citizens.
And there is no mention of the fact that, if liberalism is now an ugly word,
it is because the very same socialists who made socialism an ugly word hijacked liberalism when it enjoyed a favorable reception
and visited upon it the same fate that they secured for socialism.
In other words, if Sides himself wanted to be bluntly honest, hed have to admit that liberals are secretly socialists.
Still, though their premises are bogus, Sides and his colleagues draw the correct conclusion thatmost conservatives are NOTHING OF THE KIND.
The truth of the matter is thatthe vast majority of contemporary conservatives are neoconservatives.
Now, neoconservatism is a term that hasnt the best reputation.
It has ALWAYS BEEN CONTROVERSIAL,
and most of its proponents have DISAVOWED IT to the point of, preposterously, condemning it as an anti-Semitic SLUR.
But George W. Bush and his party inflicted potentially irrevocable damage upon the label.
Conservatism is a more marketable label.
Nevertheless, the reality is that neoconservatism is indeed a distinct school of political thought.
Beyond this, it is fundamentally different in kind from classical conservatism.
Irving Kristol, the so-called Godfather of neoconservatism, an appellation that he readily endorsed, ADMITS this in noting boththat neoconservatism exists
and that conservative can be misleading when used to describe it.
Neoconservatism, you see, is THE INVENTION OF LEFTISTS like Kristol himself.
When the Democratic Party began veering too far to the Left in the 1960s, Kristol and more moderate leftists began turning toward the Republican Party.
So as TO DISTINGUISH THEMSELVES FROM traditional conservatives, they coined the term neoconservatism.
Neoconservatives, Kristol asserts, are not at all hostile to the idea of a welfare state even if they reject the vast and energetic bureaucracies created by the Great Society.
Neoconservatives ENDORSE social security, unemployment insurance, and some kind of family assistance plan, among other measures.
But whats most interesting, particularly at a time when ObamaCare has DIVIDED the country, is that Kristol reminds us thatneoconservatives SUPPORT some form of national health insurance.
In all truthfulness, however, neither a degree in political science nor an IQ above four is required to know thatneoconservatism has always championed Big Government
for it is its foreign policy vision more than anything else that distinguishes it from its competitors.
For neoconservatives, America is exceptional in being, as Kristol puts it, a creedal nation,the only nation in all of human history to have been founded upon an ideology of equality, of natural rights.
The U.S.A., then, has a responsibility to promote this ideology throughout the world.
And it is by way of a potentially boundless military i.e. Big Government that this ideological patriotism is to be executed.
Had the foregoing political scientists been looking in the right places, they would BE FORCED TO CONCLUDE that most conservatives are secretly neoconservatives.
So, you see that those WHO THEY CALL
"neoconservatives", are really nothing more than
the old moderate side of the DemocRATS.
It's just THAT SIMPLE .

I don’t think Establishment types understand that tearing down Trump won’t give their candidate a better chance to be heard.
It’s the message, not the candidate.
To: thouworm
FU George Will! You could make the “separation of powers” claim if the GOP leadership actually acted like an opposition party instead of a bunch of Obama psychophants!

George Will, going back to James Madison ?
Who is more out of touch? George Will, or Donald Trump?
And blaming James Madison has already been done, by lefties who cited the Constitution+Madison as being “outdated” thinking.
