We need a word to describe Neo-Cons that is distastefull
to the general public... Repukes have made liberal into a "Bad" word so we need one that can become a brand on their fore-head

2. I sometimes call them The PNAC Gallery. You have to remember...
the Howdy Doodie Show to 'get' it. Not distasteful; just dismissive.

3. I just use Right-Wing or Right-Winger and say it like
I'm spitting out something godawful tasting. I use it always in a bad context and usually coupled with something like "Crazy, " loony" "stupid," "corrupt," "rat""chickenshit" "gutless," "coward" and so on. I always us it with the word with "anti" as well. Such as:"Our nutbag legislature is full of anti-education Right-Wingers." Never use pro-life either. Anti-choice. Stuff like that.

7. "Radical right wing," and repeat it. Then shorten it to "radicals."
And the term "radical" does fit -- these people are **not** conservative in any way.

Is that because they are so far right they've met up with the other side?

13. Exactly, or vice versa, if you consider the neocons' roots in Liberalism.
It doesn't really matter if they call themselves neoconservatives or neoliberals. If you use a clock as a metaphor for political ideologies, you can see that, whether you move to the extreme right or to the extreme left, you end up at the same place.

The word "con" has such bad associations.

26. Yup
And that's why they've resorted to saying that NEOCON is being used as a RACIAL epithet, coded language for "JEW".....wha....wha....

It just happens that a lot of the high ranking NEOCONS are jewish and have dual citizenship (Israel), like Richard Perl, Wolfowitz.

Just like criticizing Israeli occupation is anti-jewish, criticizing Neo-con foreign policy is becoming anti-jewish. Amazing!

Most of these guys were Trotskyites (far-left) before they switched teams, infiltrated, and conquered the Peleoconservatives to dominate the Republican party.

32. Just plain conservative...
If the goal is to do to them what they did to us, we need to make 'conservative' the bad word. If we use another word, conservatives can distance themselves from extremists by saying "i'm not one of those extreme right-wing neo fascist conservative hillbilly radical bible thumping nazis!"

To hurt them, we need to hit their base.

One of the best things about law school was any student who admitted to being conservative or was caught arguing a conservative talking point was made to explain how they could possibly be conservative.

People were embarassed to admit that they were conservative because they knew they'd be shunned. We need to make the rest of the country like that, not just law schools.

40. Neocon-spirators!
It is a conspiracy to rob America of what it "could have been" under Gore!

Imagine all those monies we have pissed down the drain fighting in Iraq.
$300 Billion and counting.

Think of the hospitals we could have built.
Think of the freeways we could have built.
Think of the infrastructure we could have repaired.
Think of the free healthcare system we could have designed.
Think of the education system we could have had.
Think of the improvement in housing conditions for the poor we could have had.

Instead, they conspired to steal our America away from us and what we "could have had".

Think of all the lives that have been lost for oil.
Think of all the lives that have been damaged for this experiment in "nation building."
Not just ours, but theirs as well, and everyone else's that has been affected by these, these traitors, these neocon-spirators.

If George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, or Alexander Hamilton were alive today they would rise up and join the Army.
And fight the neocon-spirators.
For trading peace for war.
For trading blood for oil.
For trading our future for their dreams of conquest.

"Give me liberty or give me death" means just as much today as it did 229 years ago.
The Patriot Act is an abomination to everything our forefathers stood up and fought for. Stood up and died for.
Stood up and created a new nation free from tyranny.
