Newsweek magazine has a very interesting and lengthy article, entitled “The Return of the Neocons” by David Margolick.
Here’s a short excerpt: “One prominent activist on the libertarian end of the party – who hates what he sees as their costly foreign – policy adventurism and the GOP electoral losses (i.e., the presidency and both houses of Congress) he attributes to them – calls them ‘parasites’: with little electoral power of their own, he claims, they have had to attach themselves to others, like George W. Bush. Comfortably ensconced behind a cloak of anonymity, he bristles, but also marvels, at their endurance and effectiveness, comparing them to ‘an infection that keeps coming back.’ “They’ve perfected this absolutely incredible thing: they announce who they are, how powerful they are, how influential they are, and get people to write articles about them,” he says. “But when their policies are perceived to have caused mass chaos, they don’t exist, they didn’t have anything to do with it, they weren’t there, and they get really snotty. And anyone who attacks them is anti-Semitic.”
Worth a read we think.

There is an unmistakable “odor trace” of a few of these boys lingering in the failed Supreme Court. As of right now, we’re not sure they can hide behind anything or anyone else. This last trick they’ve pulled is so outrageous that is a beacon all by itself — the price must have been quite high and it must have been paid.
Yeah, it stinks right now, but the poop landed under the autocrat’s “poop packing” of his own special tribe of medieval neo-con Justices. Of course MeanMesa was on the job (even after the geriatric humiliation of having to call MeanMesa’s I.T. guy to break into the Supreme Court’s PDF content…)
These two are a quick read and address the neo-con expertise at reframing what should be obvious into something else entirely…then selling it as sensible.
