Bush and the neo-cons are NOT conservatives but rather very much the opposite, that is to say, they are probably the most radical group of men who have held power in Washington since the days of Reconstruction. They are not conserving anything --- not our laws, not the lives of our young men, not our traditions of limited government, not our finances, not our long tradition of mutually beneficial relations with the important governments and peoples of Europe, not even the truth, which they view with contempt when it stands in their way, and NOT EVEN our independence as a sovereign government.

I have to agree with you, but my dilemma is that they don't know that. I'm not comfortable that "radical" does them justice. "Irrational radicals" is better. "Fascists" is a pretty good word, but it's so overused, it's misinterpreted as a generic insult.
