Derbyshire is a disgruntled fellow, and if he's any "sub-class" of conservative it is a paleoconservative of sorts. He ascribes to not one idea that would distinguish someone as a "neo-con" (he thinks bringing democracy to the world is insanity and nonsense, rather likes Islam, and loathes the "open borders" crowd, as he'd call them, at the Wall Street Journal).

I do wonder how a stately old conservative rag like National Review went from a reasoned viewpoint as seen in my link, to your fine example of whiny neo-con brattiness.
