He got you!

Managed to divert attention away from the point of the post to which he responded. A "neocon" in present, common usage is a person convinced that America can do no wrong in pursuit of corporation profits, that any means justify this end, and that dividends are more important that people.

Such means can and include abrogation of the Constitution, human and civil rights, justified solely by American ambition.

That people below a certain income level exist for the purpose of the State in it's desire to expand American imperialism and markets. Said people should preferably serve in the military. It is not necessary to provide health insurance for them, as that makes the military more attractive.

Piety and the Old Testament is used to justify such behavior, and neocons are as pious as they are cruel.

There are a lot of them around here. Ain't hard to find them - simply look for folks who can wrap their heads around the statement "Bush hasn't and doesn't lie as President."
