#1 Spengler is right that the neocon brand is dead, but I think he's off the mark blaming neocons for the Arab Spring. The neocons bet on democracy in Iraq. I'm not sure what to call the folks that bet on democracy in Libya and Syria before the Iraq test was complete. Fools is a term that comes to mind.

#2 They didn't bet on Democracy, they bet on a couple of putsches by the Moslem Brotherhood, and they did it without any help from Bush, Cheney, or Rumsfeld.
