Do neoconservatives care about democracy and freedom?

Is your idea of having a conversation to bludgeon people with insults, so either they stop communicating with you or end up firing barbs back?  Remind me here exactly WHAT is obtained by saying to someone "every view point you have is border line retarded"? 

I guess I kind of brought that on myself with my "stupid as fuck" comment. Maybe that was over the line (at least zexen says it was!) but I honestly don't know how else to characterize it when someone's idea of critiquing conservatism is to alternate between calling conservatives Nazis and terrorists.

Hard to have a beneficial discussion or debate when those you (you is a general you, not specifically pointing at yourself here) disagree with are seen not only as wrong, but evil.  This seems to become increasingly the norm.  I am not going to go into who started it, because it doesn't matter.
