The term has been morphed to mean "somebody whose foreign policy views are more hawkish than mine". It really doesn't have much real meaning anymore, having merely becoming a pejorative.
Exactly. It's pathetic; the term used to actually mean something, representing a good, legitimate ideology. Now it's just describing someone liberals/wackjob libertarians don't like.
Are you implying that the only people with a "legitimate ideology" support an interventionist foreign policy? Because if so, you've reached the pinnacle of arrogant hackery right there.
Of course, didn't you get Ben's memo? If you don't support nuking all those dirty Moslems, you are an isolationist appeaser who loves Hitler.
