The most popular political slur of our time is the term "neocon." Politically engaged people of several ideologies use the term regularly and although they mean different things when they use it, the term is always intended to be an insult, like the terms "neo-Nazi," and "fascist," also favorite slurs of the same ilk using "neocon." I was first called a “neocon” by known Democratic Socialists upset by my writings in favor of America’s founding principles, Life, individual Liberty and the right to pursue Happiness in a free market society where all things are possible through individual achievement and reward.
Since Democratic Socialists believe in and support Death not Life (abortion), a Greater Communal Good - not Individual Rights and the right to take from achievers via progressive taxation - not the right to live free, earn and retain wealth by the sweat of one’s own brow, I took the term “neocon” as a compliment.

The hate mail I have received from Ron Paul supporters reads just like the hate mail I have always received from Marxists around the globe and across the aisle. It’s hate-filled overtly angry foul mouthed and threatening rhetoric that reads like it was written by anti-Semitic skin-heads on crack. I doubt that even Ron Paul would be proud of how his supporters behave…

More evidence of insanity in the Ron Paul camp!

If Ron Paul ran as an independent, he would take more votes away from Hillary than from Fred.

I "Neo" was code for Jew?

I tend to find the usage of “neo-con” as an epithet from the left is an anti-Semitic slur.

There are about as many definitions for “neo-cons” as there are for “true conservative”.

Well, I suppose I must be one. I was a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat until that Abe Lincoln kid came along.

A "neo-conservative" is a closet leftist whose infatuation with big-government, nanny-state Marxism extends beyond the borders of the United States.
There isn't very much about these people that meets any objective definition of the word "conservative."

That’s why he should run as an Independent Libertarian, as he is, instead of playing conservative Republican, which he ain’t!
To: fieldmarshaldj
Exactly! It is the Left's own version of "The N Word."

Oh you're from the Republican establishment? Oh well carry on, no proof needed we'll just take your word for it....

“A “neo-conservative” is a closet leftist whose infatuation with big-government, nanny-state Marxism extends beyond the borders of the United States.”
I call that a Neo-coMmunist. Hillary and most of the Democrats in the house and Senate are Neo-coms.
