		<description>It's so evident that our schools are failing our kids. They are not learning history (even basic stuff) and it's showing in their behavior and poor decision-making abillty. The longer this goes on and the older the uneducated get, the more it will affect society. And reporters and other media personalities haven't helped - I've heard some make  reference (gleefully) to the age of baby boomer rule being over now with Obama as president. 

The U.S. Census Bureau considers a baby boomer to be someone born during the demographic birth boom between 1946 and 1964. These uneducated youngsters probably think baby boomers are all those born before the birth control pill was invented!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;They do have the benefit of longer experience, but that’s only helpful when people have learned from it. We seem to have a way of repeating our past mistakes. 

For me, voting for Obama was voting for the possibility of something new and different. I didn’t like where we were headed.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

By voting for the Anointed One, you just demonstrated you haven't learned a thing from life, much less history. A conman is a conman, irrespective of the scale.

I think you should change your moniker to credulous. As the phrase goes, "Just sayin'".</description>

		<description>The hatred of baby boomers is in itself nasty and divisive. And it is .wide spread We keep hearing all about the "greatest generation" with no mention that they were the ones that got us mired in Vietnam and got thousands of boomers killed and maimed. No one trashes them. Not to mention the vast majority of baby boomers never participated in things like Woodstock. Heck, most never even went to college. 
As for divisiveness over the past 16 years, that has been coming from the right. Clinton made serious efforts to govern in a bipartisan manner and appointed Republicans to his government. In fact one of his biggest mistakes was to choose Louie Freeh to head the FBI, a position Freeh used to investigate and trash Clinton in order to suck up to the right wing crazies. His bipartisan moves were slammed as triangulating, while Obama is praised for being bipartisan.

Conservatives like to portray all liberal baby boomers as Bill Ayers wanna be's, which is completely ridiculous, but has worked well for them. But I suspect the real motive is to pave the way for drastically reducing our Social Security and destroying the whole system. Conservatives constantly talk about how we boomers are going to ruin the country, neglecting to mention that we have been overpaying into the system since the early 80's to help pay our own way. In effect they are saying the government is going to default on the Treasury bonds those overpayments have been invested in.

These kids need to have someone point out that the pilot of the US Air plane that went into the Hudson last week was a baby boomer. Those people survived because he had YEARS of experience under his belt. Being young is not always what is needed.</description>

		<description>THANK YOU Steve for a great Post. I only wish I could make this into an icon and hang it on a Wall in my office so everyone over 40 will have to read it! Tell it like it is....

The spoiled Obamabrats need a good spanking to get their heads straight. Wait till the bad times hit 'em on their dainty perceptions of reality. Maybe they can start praying to Saint Obadrama. We sure as hell don't have pity for them! They destroyed the election of Hillary and then attacked like rabid rats Gov Palin's motherhood...Nothing's sacred for these presumptuous, spoiled sexist rats...</description>

		<description>Heh. That's a good point. If Obama is so kewl and the boomers so passé, then why'd Obie set up an entire administration of boomer Clintonites? Those "millenials" had better wake up and smell their Mom's morning coffee. ;-)</description>

		<description>Thinking about it now, I think it was unfortunate that they chose Beyonce to sing Etta James' signature song "At Last," for the inaugural ball:

&lt;blockquote&gt;At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over,
And life is like a song!  
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I don't mean to denigrate Beyonce: she's gorgeous, and she did a good job (she does play Etta James in the new flick &lt;em&gt;Cadillac Records&lt;/em&gt;).  But they could have had 70 year old Etta there singing that song.  The lyrics express the fulfillment of a dream after a long period of waiting and longing.  Those words would have meant so much more coming from Etta.  "At Last!"  They really did blow an opportunity by having the young unwrinkled beauty take the song that Etta James earned through blood, sweat, and tears:  the song from the boomer generation.  Having Etta James sing the song could have helped to close the generational rift the O fans seem to exemplify.

And besides, Beyonce made Michelle look just a tad less gorgeous.</description>

		<description>Gee whiz Steve, don't you know that being called a racist is an accolade.  Also denigrating women is the new compliment.  The Obots' have been so nice I just can't understand why you're not satisfied.</description>

		<description>One need only look at the music the "millenials" are producing - empty, completely forgettable crap. And no cool women bands like the nineties - this is the age of Obama when sexism is cool.

These poor kids have no substance and so are perfect for the fraud messiah Obama. They think they've really accomplished something but they just can't say what.

Even their look is terrible - hair pulled forward with little spikey places sticking up. The males that is.

They are unfortunately the bamboozled generation - Generation Obama - Gen "O".

Maybe if some of them wake up, they'll be able to create some good rock and roll.</description>

		<description>"We’re the generation of 9/11, of Hurricane Katrina, of the Iraq War,” said Stephanie Young"


Wow, and here I thought we are coming through these events together because as living Americans, these tragedies affected and still affect our fellow citizens even if we weren't physically in the actual events. Her choice of language is meant to exclude people as if their feelings and struggles are meaningless.

		<description>EG, kind of the same with the hard right -- everything they accuse Obama of doing, Cheney did, too, but they refuse to admit it. 

Maybe they dont' even see it. 

Either way, not a good sign when  the poeple with ostensible power are so self deluded, so self unaware. 

Obama is a crook, no doubt about, but so is Cheney, if you can't admit to both, or defend one over the other, I have to wonder about you.</description>

		<description>As the mother of 5 'millenials' I will say that not one of them voted for BO but their voices will never be heard and isn't it ironic that we have to remember the past when it comes to BO's race speech and all of that horror but we "have to move forward" when it comes to his corrupt takeover of the Democratic party and his sexist treatment of Palin adn Clinton. We will never forget what happened this past year and we will not forget the totalitarian regimes that have existed in the 20th and 21st century and remind us that the "greatest good for the greatest number" is the foundation of totalitarianism and that is the crap this guy is shoveling.</description>

		<description>Yes,

Frankly I have....

And I am very happy and content with the caliber of person that I see. 

I am objectively able to take stock of my own imperfections and foibles.  I am able to criticize my generation without icing over the vacuous, MTV generation parts.

Why can you not address any criticism to those segments of the Baby Boom generation that vilified and tried to destroy the Clintons? Why?

Every response you have made to one of my postings I have clearly addressed point for point.

Glad you had a very nice day yesterday. I hope it continues as it seems to suit you very well.
There are good and bad in every generation and no generation is free of sellouts and opportunists.</description>

		<description>The young are an easy target, but many Americans of my own age don't seem to be particularly well-educated or well-informed either.  They &lt;em&gt;do&lt;/em&gt; have the benefit of longer experience, but that's only helpful when people have learned from it.  We seem to have a way of repeating our past mistakes.  

For me, voting for Obama was voting for the possibility of something new and different.  I didn't like where we were headed.  I thought I was seeing that place quite clearly.  McCain/Palin looked like a repetition of past errors.  It was a question of piling up on the rocks I could see ahead, or turning into unknown waters.  

It's way too soon for me to have an opinion about the Obama presidency.  This will only be Day One.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The young are an easy target, but many Americans of my own age don&#8217;t seem to be particularly well-educated or well-informed either.

		<description>So does that make the "youth" of today more informed and educated?  Think not.

Does it make them susceptible to advertising and chicanery?  Hey, they voted for Obama .  They'll have to take up  any disappointment in Obama to the Better Business Bureau.

If Obama is so media savvy, why won't he do town hall meetings and why does he need a teleprompter to be coherent?

Obama is the perfect example of a talking head.  Empty and bereft of any true knowledge, wisdom, or believable intellect.

Face it, America (s)elected a lemon.</description>

		<description>If you want to communicate to today's young people 
you've first got to grab and hold their attention.  That's the reason for the spectacle and theater.  It's why our new  president is both politician and pop culture personality.  This doesn't necessarily mean that he lacks substance.  Only that he understands young people and 21st Century media.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I laugh at the so called millenials when they tout their superiority. &lt;strong&gt;I tell them that maybe Obama IS the best thing that’s ever happened to THEM.&lt;/&lt;/strong&gt;blockquote&gt;



Exactly.



With Obama, those brats have hot dogs, yet think they're steaks.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>
