I am one of those baby boomers you speak of.....

I have always said my generation was the worse, but I don't mean that the entire generation is bad....its just that the few limosine liberal baby boomers control virtually everything from media to schools to the goverment and it just SEEMS like the entire generation is bad....

there is a huge dicotomy in my generation....

even while the Viet Nam war was going on, most people my age did not protest, did not burn flags or cars or bras or anything....most people like me were in school or working, just getting by....

people like myself and my friends had nothing to do with the leftist criminal element...we were too busy and too involved and evidently too poor to be out there protesting....

perhaps we are an antique in today's society, but we have been married for a long time, go to church, paid our taxes, and saved our money...

we are paying a heavy burden of taxation for the elderly and yet we still are spending the money for college, and even help a little with our grown son, so we get it from both ends...

MY parents were/are the best....but there are many selfish people from that generation when you think about it....

many never paid any social security taxes yet all of them are recieving much more than they ever put in, and now they want me to pay for all there drugs....geesh....
