Will Neo-Cons Still Be Believers When The TIde Is Turned?
Can't help but wonder if, when the time comes and there is, say a President Clinton again....just for arguments sake...will the neo-conservative fascist feel playing loose and free with the Constitution be such a good idea, when the possibility of removing GUNS from the average guy is deemed necessary, because they could be stolen by TERRORISTS and USED TO HIJACK a bus load of nuns, who since they have had contact with terrorists, will now be required to have their phones tapped?

1. Yes. They will believe Bush never did anything wrong.
And they will vilify even the smallest of infractions by the next Democrat President, if in fact there ever is one.

2. some don't believe Nixon did anything wrong.
for some people, everything will always be somebody else's fault.

7. Yes. Even now, they're mewling that they've been "right" all along,
but it's simply problems in the execution. It wasn't done correctly, so the results weren't as they predicted. Yet ANOTHER one from the "yeah, SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURE" file.

3. Don't you understand we're at war?!
My favorite are all the pundit hacks who kept berating war protesters for being unpatriotic in a time of war by not buying everything the president said and did hook line and sinker, while these very same freaks were the ones criticizing Clinton over military action.

4. depends of the definition of neocons
if you mean Wolfowitz et al they'll adapt : after all they went from trotskyism to neo-imperialism (btw I do wonder if there is an evolution in essence or only in rethorics)

Freepers don't evolve. It's against the Bible. So they rot.

8. And if you stretch the Contitutution for ONE right, then you open....
.....the future of the executive branch to stretch it toward another. Like I said. The second amendment comes to mind. Once precedent is set, then "Katie-Bar-The-Door"!!

10. They'll never believe it's turned. It will be someone else's fault.
Or it will be one of their leaders fault. Or it will be the ignorant public (us) refusing to accept their version of the revealed truth. Or it will be a conspiracy of those who represent all the problems the neocons decry.

Essentially, their argument is the argument of all true believers in the face of overwhelming evidence that their position is wrong. It reduces to this: the response of a petulant child who has been caught red handed in a huge lie.
