I am happy to afford you such amusement, ian. Of course, the offending posts were along the lines of defending Henry Hyde against mischaracterization, since I know him to be courtly in demeanor, or mentioning that I know Bill Kristol when Daniel asked me what I thought of something he had written. I am not quite sure why such things should tickle you so, but "a chacun son gout"....

Oh, I find Neocon as amusing as everybody here. But you're quite mistaken, he doesn't drop names. He told me so himself. He didn't exactly explain what this little bit was, though: By the end of college, I was what came to be called a "neoliberal" (Charles Peters, Martin Peretz, The Washington Monthly, The New Republic--- ring a bell?). By '80, I was what had come to be called a neoconservate, although since it included lots of anti- Communist social democrats, it was a misnomer (Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Jeanne Kirkpatrick, Commentary, The New Criterion--- ring a bell?). So many names in the pantheon, so little time. St. Ronbo didn't even make it into that one, though Neocon has professed his personal love of old Mr. Family Values here. "Family values" via shipping your kids off to boarding school at the earliest opportunity is something that Neocon might want to consult Orwell on.
