Great point. I don't know, but my geuss is that there aren't that many people in the U.S with neocon sentiments. Maybe in the tens of thousands? And yet they took over the country's foreign policy. Like what you see in the movies or TV shows depicting a U.S. Govt. coup. Bush didn't seem to be one of them, just fell under their spell. Luckily, they ran into too much failure to take it up another notch.
Thanks for the reading suggestion.
