I hate the term neoconservative, because it makes it sound like the old conservatives weren't ****ed up too.

The original neocons seem to be burned on democracy promotion (see Pakistan, Egypt, and Palestine for instance). I don't know if it really means anything anymore besides more war against miscellaneous political entities that they loop together under the umbrella of "Islamofascism.""Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

Even when not used pejoratively it doesn't mean what it originally did.
I want to know if the book to which the OP refers deals with this confuscation of the term or not. If it doesn't, reading about a political philosophy that no longer means what it used to mean isn't going to give much insight into U.S. foreign policy.

I remember the deathwishing post.
Che, it may surprise you, but I think you had Patroklos pegged wrong. That's far from the first intelligent (non-blindly ideological) post he's made.
Neo conservatives are just liberals in disguise.
