neoconservatives were okay by me until after the first half of the Cold war ended (Russia down, China to go), then they went overboard.

Took far too long, but I'll still take it.

The statement below sums up perfectly why the GOP is now so full of RINOS!

"Neoconservatives first gained influence in the GOP during the Reagan administration when most of them were still Democrats. Many of the neoconservatives were "Jackson Democrats" — that's Henry "Scoop" Jackson, perhaps the country's leading Cold Warrior and one of the few leading Democrats who did not sit out the end of the Cold War in the 1970s and '80s. In 1980, fed up with the weakness of the Carter administration, many neoconservatives supported Ronald Reagan for president, and some of them joined the administration and, to their great credit, helped win the Cold War."

Interesting article. I do not agree that neoconservatism Is out of sync with the founder's principles.

They had a brief resurgence when they found common cause with the dem virtue-signalers over Ukraine.....Looks like it's dying down some now that the dems are all hot and bothered that their hold on Twitter might be going away.
