I agree.

However, I’d like to point out that neocon has no agreed definition, and most of those accused of being neocons don’t define themselves as such. As used, it tends to just mean anyone more in favor of intervention than I am.

So being opposed to neocons is pretty much a straw man situation.

I fully concur.

It's the most overused yet totally meaningless term used.
