Question: When did the neocons separate themselves into 2 separate groups?

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.

Answer: You've ignored the massive amounts of corporate welfare which the Neo-Cons give to themselves (such as having the fed cut interest rates, meaning to inflate/devalue/debase the dollar, to bail out billionaires on Wall Street at the expense of the poor and middle class; there's also Medicare Part D and all the handouts given to the Military-Industrial Complex war profiteers).

The biggest mistake most liberals make is assuming that Neo-Cons actually believe in Capitalism or the Free Market. They've merely stolen the rhetoric of the people who do believe in those things (ie. libertarians) and applied it to their Corporatist (well, Fascist is the proper word, but its meaning has become so distorted over 70-80 years that people no longer recognize the original definition of fascism; Mercantilist would also work as a label, it refers to the corporate welfare policies of European monarchs from the 18th century and is very similar) policies. Nor do the Neo-Cons believe in limited government (as their No Child Left Behind and Medicare Part D have proven) or in personal responsibility (if they believed in personal responsibility, they wouldn't be waging a war on people who use drugs peacefully).
