Around 2010-2020, we are going to be in hell. Combine baby boomer narcissism, with being senior citizens. Oh man will it be ugly. Free Prune Juice and hip replacements as constitutional rights.

I always challenge the baby boomer lefties who brag about their generation stopping Vietnam, that it took 10 years after Gulf of Tonkin for the war to actually end. Even if you accept their self inflated egos and they did stop the war, taking 10 years to do it, is really not something to write home to mom about.

I'm amazed at people who actually believe that cutting the South Vietnamese off at the knees and leaving them to their fate while we bugged out was a GOOD thing?!

That's my fear, too.

Yeah, I really look forward to the day when baby boomers demand Viagra be included in the Prescription drug benefit.

The Vietnam war sent a the boomer generation's prospects for economic success down the toilet. If someone is to be thanked for ending the war, that should be Nixon. If someone is to be blamed for starting it, that should be the democRats. Right now, boomers just want to get some modicum of economic security, before they are forced out of the job market. It's not a lot to ask for. The fact that so many boomers are leftists is an indictment of their/our sanity.

Good for you! In fact NVA officials have admitted for years that the great unwashed,
anti-war, pinko-commies in the USA gave them "strength" to keep the war going.
Semper Fi...

Yes, the leftists did stop the Vietnam war, eventually, with the help of the USSR communists who spent tons of money supporting the anti-war movement in the US.

Well, I say we elect a veteran from the first Gulf War for President in 2008. We need to get the ball rolling.
