Summary: THE CONSUMATE INSIDER TAPE ON QUESTIONABLE NEO-CONSERVATISM
Review: This tape is a must for every serious student of political science. BLUNTLY, the disturbing fact is that this tape reveals how an intellectual leftist insider could not "leave it all behind". Mr. Podhoretz trys to convince the listener that he has turned his back on his liberal past...but has he? After listening to this tape one must ask if a former liberal can EVER become a true conservative! Can he ever know what real conservatism is? Or are socialism and other leftist ideas so engrained that it still spills forth! Mr. Podhoretz did not accept conservatism as he found it. This tape demonstrates that he set out to CHANGE conservatism into a Global new-age construct more suitable to his thought process and background. Thus the fallacy of neo-conservatism is born. Just because it is wraped in intellectual language does not make it correct or in keeping with the long history of traditional conservatism. This tape answers the question of why most traditional and social conservatives feel uncomfortable with the liberal's "step child", NEO-CONSERVATISM!
