"Even the Liberal New Republic..."
Google's description of tnr.com reads:
"Description: A journal of politics and the arts. Liberal tradition though more recently has developed a neo-liberal bent."

What the hell is a "neo-liberal bent?" Most descriptions in Google entries, as you may know, are supplied by the Url's owners. So presumably TNR has belatedly acknowledged they're not running a liberal magazine any more-- well, sort of acknowleded.You just have to supply the translation to "neo-liberal" yourself..."we're not liberal-- we're neo-liberal."
