Give yourself a 2 minute pat on the back...if you're reading Free Republic - YOU MADE IT!
bttt for later
Child from the 60’s. Made it.
Yeah....we need a pat on the back? Can’t we wait until we’ve completely F’d up the country before we celebrate. Can we do anything right?
In retrospect, we didn't make it. We forgot the lessons of our youth and took the easy way out way too often. As long as we had jobs and money, we looked the other way at the fall of our country. Meanwhile, those who hate us used our good nature and freedom against us. And now we are shackled by them. There is no way to untangle this Gordian knot, save one.
A man I know who is about 90 years old told me that he cringes every time he hears the term “Greatest Generation” applied to he and his WWII generation. He says that a generation should be measured on the children they produce. He says that HIS PARENTS, the WWI generation, were the greatest generation because they produced the WWII generation. But the WWII generation produced Woodstock.
What did us baby boomers produce? Disco?
