Neo-cons: Bush foreign policy too weak

[AmericanErrorist]

...Conservative intellectuals and commentators who once lauded Bush for what they saw as a willingness to aggressively confront threats and advance U.S. interests said in interviews that they perceive timidity and confusion about long-standing problems including Iran and North Korea, as well as urgent new ones such as the latest crisis between Israel and Hezbollah...

...Conservatives complain that the United States is hunkered down in Iraq without enough troops or a strategy to crush the insurgency. They see autocrats in Egypt and Russia cracking down on dissenters with scant comment from Washington, North Korea firing missiles without consequence, and Iran playing for time to develop nuclear weapons while the Bush administration engages in fruitless diplomacy with European allies. They believe that a perception that the administration is weak and without options is emboldening Syria and Iran and the Hezbollah radicals they help sponsor in Lebanon.

2. Conservative intellectual????

Isn't that an oxymoron at this point in time? (rhetorical question, of course).

3. When was the last time a neocon served in the military

or had a family member do so? It's something they don't do, at all.

4. Doesn't it occur to Repubs why they are all alone in their idealism?

Enslavement & Colonialism are no longer acceptable forms of
behavior to the rest of the world. Nukes are a poor excuse
for occupation of sovereign countries.

I wish our soldiers would just walk off the job and come home.
