The onset of the holidays seemed to have inspired a couple of my favorite bloggers to do analyses of the "neoconservatives" (aka "neocons" for short). Here are two from Billmon: Twilight of the Neocons? 12/23/03; What is a Neocon? 12/24/03
The first of these has a particularly memorable phrase. He says of the Goldwater conservatives of 1964 that their foreign policy was "one long howl of rage."
Kevin "CalPundit" Drum also tackled the subject: Neocon Singlemindedness 12/24/03
The Christian Science Monitor has a helpful site giving brief profiles of the leading "neoconservatives": Empire Builders: Neoconservatives and their blueprint for US power
A recent article in the liberal American Prospect challenges the neocon view of the Cold War: The -Ism That Failed 12/01/03 issue
