The last Neocon standing -Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15896208/site/newsweek/from/RS.5/<snip>
Kristol acknowledges the neoconservatives are turning on each other. Francis Fukuyama, the "End of History" sage, has broken with the neocons publicly and believes that they are discredited. Richard Perle, the former Pentagon adviser, now says he probably wouldn't have invaded Iraq at all (Perle refused to talk to NEWSWEEK). Kristol dismisses what he calls the "confessional mode" of his old friend Perle. But Kristol also believes the infighting is natural. "Every intellectual group, every political group, goes through a period of mini crackup and reassembles in slightly different ways," he told NEWSWEEK. "For a group that's discredited, an awful lot of people are spending an awful lot of time discrediting us." Kristol's allies are looking to Abrams to pick up the pieces.

1. Well, when a group has been giving presidents bad advice for 30 years...
...and had near-absolute control over national policy for the last six, AND its turned out to be a case of the blind leading the blind, people want to make sure that your name is so thoroughly in the toilet that your harebrained notions won't be taken seriously for at least another century (or more, if we can manage).

8. Yes...
the neocon rats jump the PNAC ship. Excerpts were published a couple of weeks ago- right before the election.

3. Those idiots got their way one time & got their invasion of Iraq.
The only thing on their list they accomplished is an utter all time historic failure. Imagine what the world would be like if they were able to do the rest of their agenda?
