That seems to be what jbor and Terrance have been
suggesting. Read back through the VLVL2 archives and
you'll find that their critique of the counter-culture
in Vineland merely amplifies and extends the critique
of the counter-culture offered by Nixon/Reagan/Bush. 
Chances are, however, they'll leap at the opportunity
to explain it once again.

Pretty darn thin, convincing only to their fellow
neocons.
