You're a pastor and you don't even understand the meaning of Matthew 7:1 and Luke 6:37??
It's bad enough when laypeople misuse those.
You disagree that most boomers are strongly opposed to the young people having economic freedom?
Do not attack the lady on a personal level.
I understand disrespect. And I've experienced it here this morning. I've said NOTHING that compromises my ideals or faith. Can you say the same?
Therein lies our difference. I do not believe the Republican party will hear me. I do not believe they are interested in reform. I do not believe helping them get elected is helping our country. I voted for GWB and I feel betrayed because of it.
Huzzah! I have no argument with you. Just with others I've come across who find the idea as repugnant as they find the Democrats.
I am not criticizing those of you who support us, just those who don't, which is the vast majority of older folks.
Get used to it. It's the government's money. It's the government's land.
I think I'll write a new song. "This land is Uncle Sam's. This land is Uncle Sam's. From California to the New York Islands. From the redwood forests to the . . . This land was made for Uncle Sam."
It is not the vast majority. It is the left and the poor planners. Sure a 60 year old expects something back. They have 40+ years of theft by the government.
However, insults, disrespect of your elders and shrill name calling won't solve anything. More of a liberal response. In fact, it might sway the vote the other way....
I have not, not one time, disagreed with the premise that something needs to be done, that resolution is needed now. My objection is to be called names, accused of "ripping" off the next generation, insults about my faith, etc. Want the vote to go against you? Just keep that up. Debate is two adults presenting points, not this. I'll pass.
Just don't use phrases like "All Baby Boomers" etc and you'll see less fighting
Who just voted themselves a Prescription Drug Benefit (including free Viagra) knowing full well SS & Medicare are going broke?
Just like regular taxes, kids...about time you noticed, suckers.
Anyone that shows up 'uninvited' on my 70th birthday will be 'humanely euthanized' by Smith and Wesson, or perhaps Mossberg.
That is mere piling on. The system was broken when I was in my teens. They dems fought fixing it for years and just looked for ways to give more people money from it.
I didn't get to vote on the prescription drug deal so I am not among the WE here.
Are you one of those generalizationists? I am ripping you off because I am on the tail end of the baby boom Born in 54 and ALL BABY BOOMERs like the Socialist Security plan.
If not for tax penalties I could retire now and live better than I do working. My SS Benefit is projected to be $2,000 per month at 65 which is a drop in the bucket. If I could stop paying now add that to my holdings every month and forget about 35 years of paying into a system that sends fatherless children to college I could add more than $2000 per month to my projected private account income.
So leave me out of WE. Hope you're planning now or you'll be hoping SS lives on.
So. Who DID vote for that? Cuz Boomers haven't retired yet for the most part. FYI.
Broad brush=narrow mind IMHO.
And no I didn't get to vote and I don't need Viagra.
All the Boomers in congress. It was none other than Rick Santorum (b. May 10, 1958) who sponsored the bill in the senate.
Cuz Boomers haven't retired yet for the most part. FYI.
Well when they do real soon they get a nice benefit courtesy of their children & grand children. But hey, the boomer's deserve it, they lived through the 1960's
Broad brush=narrow mind IMHO.
Tell that to Rush

So, this might happen, so let me insult in ADVANCE? That's productive.

Delighted. Maybe you two can do lunch.
