There's no "liberal" in there, therefore, you don't subscribe to
their
belief. You are a liberal who hates liberals, therefore, you are a
neoclown.
A neo-conservative (abbreviated as neo-con or neocon) is part of a
U.S. based political movement rooted in liberal Cold War
anticommunism
and a backlash to the social liberation movements of the 1960s and
1970s. These liberals drifted toward conservatism: thus they are new
(neo) conservatives. They favor an aggressive unilateral U.S. foreign
policy. They generally believe that elites protect democracy from mob
rule.
Look at Joe Lieberman to get an idea of what neocon is. It is the
case where you no longer care about the government growing infinite
size or deficits, and want to use the government to restrict what you
see as "excesses" of freedom. These big governmentites got tired of
the moral relativism of the 60s and ended up drifting over the the
Republican party, to do the who neocon bit.
Lieberman is not what I would call a neocon. He's simply a mouthpiece
for Israel. He presently agrees with neocons because neocons are
focused on the middle east right now.
