Great post. Best critique of PC I've read in quite awhile.

But, as is usually the case in political criticism, the criticism is better than the proferred solutions.

The author is a little light on criticism of the Right. When it is dominant - although it begins with the idea of meritocracy - it usually slides into the mistaken identification of wealth as proof of merit and abandons the idea of noblesse oblige - which is necessary in any decent society - in favor of unfettered greed.

At that point the Left rises and the cycle begins anew.

Just goes to show that truth never becomes outdated.

bump for the Hope of a brighter American Future. (where Socialism is relegated to history's unmarked graveyard of discarded lies).

Many if not most of the Americans who perished on Sept 11 were in their '30s.'
Everyone who perished was 'doing' something that Tuesday morning.
They were not at home watching MTV. They were contributing to the GNP.
I am greatly consoled for the trauma our country has suffered, by the fact that these Gen-Xers seem quite ready to challenge the Clintonesque boomers (who have been running things for so long) for the reins of leadership for our country.

The Gen-Xers can see the world 'more clearly.' And that means more conservatively.

"We "Gen-Xer's" understand Marx and Lenin- we had Marxism shoved down our throats."

A nonsensical statement. Did they, for example, have to put their names on a waiting list and then wait 15 years to get an apartment? Did they have to stand on line for 2 hours to get toilet paper? Where they ever interrogated by the KGB? Where they sent to gulags because they where Jews?

Next we'll hear how they lived through a depression.

Thoughtful commentary from a "GenX'er" and hope for the future. I'm hopeful that the events of the last 3 months have provoked thought in our fellow citizens that voted for Gore rather than GWB by 500,000 plus.

This retired Chief is now *almost* convinced the light at the end of the tunnel isn't an oncoming truck.

Just another slap in the face to me.

Were they ever interrogated by the KGB?

You have confused communism with the Soviet Union.

Over the past 40 years we've had lots of "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need". Look at the social programs in the US. Look at the class envy politics of the Democrats. Look at the slippery slide toward an ever bigger government. The fingerprints of Karl Marx are everywhere.

Thanks for the ping....it does sound promising doesn't it?
