You do know that Nixon promised to end the war in Vietnam?

Gosh. That was easy.

So even though the age group was the strongest supporters for the war, and they voted for Nixon instead of the guy that would have ended the war for sure, and instantly, you see those facts as just the opposite.

For a guy that never served you sure are weird about war, does it occur to you to ask why the older generations were so against the war after more than 1.4 million military deaths and more than a million civilian deaths, and American involvement for almost a generation, and heavy combat for 8 years, and an American political leadership of WWII vets that seemed to have no goal or interest in winning a victory, or taking the war to the enemy?

Bommers are responsible for the mess we are in. No two ways about it. This mess started way before Obama. He just pushed it over the cliff sooner than expected.

Your generation was raised by boomers, so you probably ought to dismount your high horse before you hurt yourself.:)
