Your man Howe got on Lew Rockwell:

On Obama:
he talks regularly about how he intends to put an end to everything dysfunctional about Boomer politics: the polarization, the culture wars, the scorched-earth rhetoric, the identity politics, all of that. I understand a lot of people do not believe he can actually do this, but it’s interesting that this is the rhetoric he chooses. That rhetoric is one reason why the vast majority of Millennials voted for him.
That caught my eye early on in the campaign as possible evidence of generational shift. Then again, that he's continuing so many of Bush's policies makes me wonder if it was only rhetoric.

Good to see that Howe is still beating the drum even tho Strauss is dead.

Man, those Lew Rockwell guys are eating this Stauss-Howe shit up. You sure you aren't a closet neo-confederate Austro-libertarian? Do you keep a copy of Hoppe's Democracy: The God That Failed under your mattress?

I'll read that piece tonight. I recall that their original book earned blurbs from both Al Gore and Newt Gingrich. Which means … something, perhaps.

Addendum: Fourgy, I suppose.

Man, imagine dirty talk in Al Gore's monotone.

While my attitudes differ from my generation, you can't prove that any of those kids are mine.

Man, all generations are so fucking lame in their own horrible ways.
Made that sentiment a little more even-handed for ya.

Addendum: But Millenials do suck and being judgemental about promiscuity is laaaaaaaaaaaame.
