Neo-Conservatism is both a virulent political psychosis and a political theology based solely on belief.The demonstrable, the empirical are irrelevant issues; so that Bolton speaks from a belief system based on a disordered perception of political reality wedded to an ideology steeped in Schmitt’s friend/enemy concept of the ‘political’.

About stephenkmacksd

Rootless cosmopolitan,down at heels intellectual;would be writer. 'Polemic is a discourse of conflict, whose effect depends on a delicate balance between the requirements of truth and the enticements of anger, the duty to argue and the zest to inflame. Its rhetoric allows, even enforces, a certain figurative licence. Like epitaphs in Johnson’s adage, it is not under oath.' https://www.lrb.co.uk/v15/n20/perry-anderson/diary
