Anyone who dismisses FrontPage as "neo-con" is obviously coming from a leftist slant. The liberals hate David Horowitz because he was once one of them and now exposes all of their tricks and tactics. So what is their defintion of conservative?

I have taken the same journey as Horowitz and love his work. I started on the radical left. A few years ago I sat with a friend over a pint of beer and he said to me "you know all the things we fought for have turned out to be wrong"

Example standing ovation for Mugabe the hero of Rhodesia!

So now I lurk on FR because UK conservatism finds me a bit too 'extreme' in my views. On FR I look a bit liberal compared to some, but I find the company very good.

You have to understand conservatism in the UK is very different from the States. Margaret Thatcher for instance is better loved over there than at home. Neo-con is pretty much a dirty word in most circles, not just left, luvvie, liberal.
