Doesn't make sense does it? Lies usually don't. The truth does make sense, but they don't want you to hear it.

No yeah, "But, whatever, Neocons never met an ugly stick that they didn’t want to use to beat someone over the head with. Too bad all they’re doing is hitting a rubber tire." sounds like the least biased sentence ever.

it's not a conspiracy, neocons are widely known to be war hawks- or are you asserting that 'neocon' is an unreasonable characterization?

Ah yes, the shadowy, nebulous "they" that are suppressing the "real truth". Not surprising the linked post reads with a serious undercurrent of conspiracy theory.
