Many of the names mentioned are often seen on Fox news (heh). He points out what Neo-Cons believe in.

This is NOT what a real conservative is. There are very few actual Conservatives left....

So what exactly do you consider as the determining factor behind what a "Neo-Con" truly is? The term itself means nothing more than a "Modern
Conservative", and I fail to see how it thus results in some form of negative connotation.
Some of the points made in this video are in fact quite interesting, but some of them emanate from a naive understanding of the World, as well as
History. Point Number 10 is a prime example of such, as TIME, and TIME again Isolationism has proven to run completely astray of logic and peace.
Simply remaining "Neutral" allows for nothing less than for Evil to organize itself, make a stand, and in the process create massive amounts of
destruction before it can be halted. Point Number 3 is also ill thought out in this manner as well, seeing as how it directly relates to the
aforementioned.
I completely agree with limiting the centralization of Power within the Federal Government, and I am also a Strict Constructionist in the fullest
sense of the term, but I do believe in the necessity of projection in regards to our MIL Power around the Globe.
BTW, as a side note, I feel that I must stand up for Charles Krauthammer. He was a matter of focus within this video, but he is a brilliant and common
sense filled individual. I have quite a bit of respect for the guy.
