Reminds me of a NeoCon - denys Santa

Since "NeoCon" seems to have become you favorite pejorative buzzword of
late, perhaps you should learn a bit about its connotation. I rather like
Howard Crystal's definition--"'Con' as in conservative; 'Neo' as in

Jewish."

Needless to say, your statement above is a bit off the mark.

No, Mr Crystal is "a bit off them mark." Ronnie Reagan was argueably the
first NeoCon: a social ultraconservative who spent like a liberal and
believed that we could borrow ourselves rich. Neither he nor the Bushs who
followed him are Jewish even though Christian NeoCons seem to believe that
"God" created and blessed the USA so it could defend and support Israel.

I suppose NeoCon has beome my favorite perjorative, but for excellent
reasons.
