Morally idealistic conservatatives. neocon is short for neo-conservative. Neocons separate themselves from Republicans that are traditionally fiscal conservative.
Slang - Crusading republican.
Slang - Neocons exist separated into two very distinct groups. The largest, group one, are the people below the 99th income percentile. They are religous and/or war-mongering blowhard lemmings who follow the second group; The second group is made up of the top one percent. They cut taxes for themselves, borrow trillions (second term pending), and their behavior is largely the subject of this blog. Of necessity, they pay Rove to pipe tabloid for the Rats. Lemmings rather. Whichever, they both work.
Vlugar - White bible thumping trash.

Republican 1: George Bush? But that old liar is completely unelectable!
Republican 2: No, this is his son, George "W" Bush.
Republican 1: A neocon! You think they'll fall for it?
Republican 2: Like Dick Cheney's hunting partner.

Liberal: 'To stop international terrorism we need to work with other countries and foster a spirit of peace and understanding between different cultures and ideology. We should stop burning up our finite resources and use a little of our vast wealth to aid the third world'.
Neocon: 'MORE SHOOTING!'.

2. A person who attempts to destroy a country by driving its economy into the ground through war mongering and constant spending
3. A President who should be shot for treason for not listening to the people.

the "con" is just that - a con artist. Neocons claim that they stand for morality, Christian standards, and "family values" when they cheat on their wives, steal money and lust for power and influence so that can swindle the citizenry and control every aspect of their lives. A neocon is described by Rage Against the Machine as a "snake charmer". A neocon can be a Republican, Democrat or something else entirely. They are, as RATM has put it "you, interested in you". A complete bonehead.
Check out "Sweet Neocon" on the recent album "A Bigger Bang" by the Rolling Stones.
"You say you're a Christian
Well I say you're a hypocrite
You call yourself a patriot
Well I think you're a crock of shit...
... how can you be so wrong
my sweet neocon ...

A combination of "Neo"(new) and "Con"(conservative).
"Neocon" is the term for both a new and old (reborn) form of Conservativism. A break from the Reublican party and return to more traditional Conservative values. This represents a fracturing of the Right. Neocons tend to be young, idealistic, and even dogmatic activists. They tend to have above-average intelligence and education. They are very similar to the movements of the 1960s, but with different core values. They are both pessimistic about the current system, and optimistic about the difference they can make.
It is difficult to lock Neocons down to a specific set of values, because they come from a wide variety of backgrounds (including minorities and gays) and have a wide variance in their ideals. Overall, Neocons are pro-life and support the death penalty. Many neocons are religious or "spiritual" in one way or another. They are not necessarily Christian, although that is the religion to which most of them subscribe. Neocons preach tolerance and coexistence without political correctness. They tend to strongly support both the First and Second Amendments of the Constitution. Neocons support Capitalism, but view being beholden to corporate interests with great distaste. And while compromise is a necessary evil in politics, when in doubt, neocons will stick to their guns. Too much compromise is the hallmark of selling out. They believe that the current political process has become so corrupt that no politician can get anywhere without selling out to various interests.
Neocons view the increasingly centrist philosophy of Republican politicians with the same distaste that their radically Liberal opponents feel for the Democrats. Both of the Big Two parties have been migrating towards the center for some time now, leaving behind many on either side. This is manifested by the power wielded by third-party candidates, which was decisive in determining the outcomes of the 1992, 2000 and 2004 Presidential elections. (And resulting in much backbiting on either the Left or the Right afterwards)
This is a new age in American politics. The rise of neoconservativism was one of the more unforseen and underestimated political developments in the last two decades. With similar fracturing on the Liberal side of the political divide, the power-hold of the Big Two parties (Republican and Democrat) is being shaken, and voting for a third-party candidate no longer means you are just "throwing your vote away." The future may be a very interesting time for all of us, Liberal or Conservative.
