Bruce, I think the term you are looking for is "conservative."

Maybe not...the imperialist socialists running the federal government today just think they're a new kind of "conservative"

After all, Fred Barnes once wrote in the neocon house organ The Weekly Standard:

Sure, some conservatives are upset because he has tolerated a surge in federal spending, downplayed swollen deficits, failed to use his veto, created a vast Department of Homeland Security, and fashioned an alliance of sorts with Teddy Kennedy on education and Medicare.

Then, he went on to dismiss these trivial concerns of what Barnes calls "small-government conservatives"...you see, according to Barnes, the Bush Administration is a "big-government conservative" administration

Like the old Soviets or 1984...change the name of something and you change its very nature...call a liberal socialist a "conservative"...and voila...he is
