Define “neo-con”.

If you mean someone wholly dedicated to the protection and exportation of the American way of life, by force if necessary ... then count me among them. This is the definition used by most liberals — and it includes most of the great conservative minds of the last 50 years.

If you mean a shallow, big-government, free-spending “new conservative” — then I am not among them. This is the definition used by some conservatives.

If you think they are one-in-the-same, then you are mistaken.

When we argue with vauge terminology, people read into your cryptic labels whatever they want.
