Answer 5

E.  None of the above.

Real Republicans stand for less government.  So if there are neoconservatives who stand for tyranny and oppression (which should come under the guise of fighting a foreign enemy, according to Mr. James Madison), I don't think you can use "Republican" as a blanket statement.
