The Neos Strike Back

He advocated military solutions in, among other places, Afghanistan and Nicaragua, and had a foreign policy explicitly focused on doing good. Remember Zbignew Brezinski? Zbig probably sounded more like today's neocons than anyone else in the 70s and 80s.

The point was not that Carter was a neocon (I wouldn't consider him such), but that the definition was ridiculous. FDR and JFK easily meet it as well.

So how would people define neocon in a meaningful way? Looking back at the last six years, just what have they contributed to the discussion that is both new and useful and stands up to six years of experience?

Ty@50 might answer, "Our ultimate victoury in Iraq! Freedom and democracy! Mission accomplished!"
