Neocon

Obviously, mocking neoconservatives.

"Who the hell do you think fought against British control and against slavery? It wasn't some peace-supporting sign-holding liberal."

And I'm sure it was some trigger-happy, homophobic conservative, right? Don't assume that all liberals do nothing to protest than sit around and hold signs. A lot of libs will resort to violence, but usually as a last resort.

Or just a normal us against them attitude.

Wander if they will make a longer Version of this and put it on the next rock against bush album.

yeah well it seems from the title its attacking neoconservatives If so the lyrics are pretty silly: who is the you referring to? terrorists? in which case who would want to lose to them? and if its political oponents then that could apply to either side of politics

Liberals will only use violence as a last resort. This sounds like it was written by someone who doesn't really take a hard left or right stance.

Not all liberals use violence as a last resort. I'm pretty liberal, and also pretty quick to threaten violence.

I'm a liberal, and I've killed insurgents in Baghdad. Flag waving, ok. Wuss, tell that to kill number 3.

Well, Z1z, in the 1800s, it was the Republican party that advocated ending slavery, but that was nearly 150 years ago; the purpose of the name "Neo-Conservative" is to refer to the newer, modern day conservatives and Republicans, not necessarily Abe Lincoln, or any of the pro-abolition politicians from the 1860s.

Oh, about what I think the song means: Really, I think it was meant to be a different interpretation for each listener. Maybe there was some specific meaning in the band members' heads. Either way, I think it's more of an anti-neocon anthem, but that's just my judgement based on the title. I don't really know.
