Where's the American Edict of Nantes?

I gotta say, I outdid myself on this one. In response to this David Brooks editorial:

To the Editor--

Mr. Brooks takes the current debate over Alito into the context of the great divide of the Democratic party that happened in post-FDR, civil rights-era America. I'm tired of this conversation. The Democratic party of Ted Kennedy has little to no relationship with the concerns of today's young people. I'm taking a bold step and speaking for the many people under 40 that I know who long for the days of Republicans who wanted smaller government and fiscal responsibility, who made the odd tip of the hat to the right wing lunatic fringe to grab some extra votes. I'd take 80's Republicans over 00's (naughties?) Democrats any day -- at least they had a governing policy for me to agree or disagree with.

Most people would characterize my views, much like my idol Foucault's, as ranging from the highly radical to the highly reactionary. Many of my peers share this characteristic. We are university educated white collar professionals, and we feel that reality TV has more substance and depth than today's Washington, D.C. We are totally disenfranchised. We're sick of baby boomers rehashing the struggles of the 60's and passing that off as political debate. We see right through all the song and dance, the dog and pony show. We show our interest in this 2 party system quite plainly: we don't vote. Whether you're talking about the Clinton White House, Bush II (who'll never write this country's much-needed Edict of Nantes), or Reagan, the White House has been driven by pure cash money politics since at least 1980, while all the conversation has covered low-impact wedge issues that make a poor substitute for real policy. I for one am sick of it. I'm sick of baby boomers with their stupid culture wars while the country goes to hell. I'm sick of living in an empire where the legislature consists of ineffective knee-jerk whiners and bellicose imperial servants. Most of all, I'm sick of the never ending self-centeredness of baby boomers who are all yelling at each other in the kitchen, soccer mom vs. liberal elite, while the terrorists set-up base camp in our frontlawn, using all the toys and techniques we gave them and taught them for the last 20 years. Is it going to take 9/11 part 2 for this country to wake up and get real?
