Bio
I am a reformed neoconservative who finally woke up when I saw the unwarranted rabid dogpile on Bill Clinton (whom I disliked intensely) -- the final straw of idiocy, duplicity, and mendacity that I was unable to rationalize. Impeachment?!? Unfounded, no matter how much I (without real cause) hated the man. My denial and rationalization came up hard against my sense of honor and principle. Denial and rationalization lost. (The political denial regarding the environment had already driven a wedge in -- I knew too much science to accept that party line.)

Once I started seriously and honestly questioning *one* Neoconservative "belief," I found myself questioning others. One by one, bereft of Unquestioning Loyalty and subject to Honest Evaluation, they fell. I had to face the fact that I had been politically "wrong." *Very* wrong. Finally free of labels and upbringing, I have now embraced my Inner Liberal. My abject apologies for almost four decades of being a knee-jerk Neoconservative ass.
