      7. 1st generation of neo-cons were Jewish & Catholic in 1950/1960s who welcomed loosening of WASP elite to people like them.

      8. Many early neo-cons were cultural Anglophiles (Kristol/Himmelfarb, Podhoretz at Cambridge, Neuhaus)

      9. For proto-neo-cons in early 1960s, next logical step of history is that they'd be admitted into the WASP elite.

      10. Instead, with Vietnam WASP elite suffered both attacks from outside and inner crisis of confidence.

      11. Neo-cons were furious at WASP elite for it's alleged "failure of nerve" and development of inner doubts. Dean Rusk particularly hated.

      12. Envy and anger at an elite that is no more is very much a part of the emotional gestalt of neo-conservatism.

      13. All of this might seem odd since the neo-cons are themselves now part of the American elite.

      14. But I think neo-con anger comes from sense that they'll never have the full authority, confidence & cultural legitimacy of old elite.

      15. Perry Anderson's essay on American foreign policy in latest New Left Review is a good corrective to anyone nostalgic for WASP elite.

      16. Among other things, Anderson is devastating in pricking the inflated reputation of George Kennan.

      @HeerJeet That is delicious. Kennan, usually put forth as a pasteboard Prospero, gets recast as the Leporello or Renwick of American empire.

          @ChMadar I always wanted to write essay on myth of Kennan. Don't mind that Anderson beat me to the punch.
