They're basically people who call themselves "Conservative" but have abandoned most of the basic, traditional principles of conservatism, such as fiscal responsibility and isolationism, and have only global dominence as their basic agenda and goal. Members of the current administration who are Neocons include Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, and Douglas Feith. Of those people, Dick Cheney is the only elected official. The rest are appointees.
