OK, He said Neocons not Republicans. I realize that most people see that as synonymous these days but it isn't. Neoconism is an ideology not a party. When it was developed, it was loosely connected to some 'liberal turned conservative' social change strategies. Now it has just become an anti-political label that is rapidly losing its relevance.

For the record I suspect he meant the comment to be a slam on Republicans but I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt and to be fair minded.

I am sorry, I got the point in earlier discussions that neocons felt "American" meant only them, I did not realize that "Neocon" is also synonymous with "Republican"...and by the way, feel free to insult the Dem leadership all you want. They are not much better than RNC's.
