Toby's Neo-Con Rant

Conservatives consider the West Wing to be a liberal show, but there are plenty of times when its leftist characters give conservative rants. Here is Toby Ziegler’s neo-conservative speech, in which he says that he doesn’t want the Islamic extremists to like America, after America sucks up to them. Rather, Toby says, they’ll like America when it wins and spreads its values of freedom and democracy throughout the world. Toby later backs off from his neo-con rhetoric.



This was on when George W. Bush was President. Nowadays, there are prominent conservatives who were gun-ho for the neo-cons during the Bush years, but aren’t so much now. See Ann Coulter’s latest column here.
