I am waiting, too. My son is Generation X. I invite him to post his comments here.

As for myself, as a Boomer, I can say that I never attended a demonstration until the 2000 election fiasco, was an Air Force wife, never collected welfare or unemployment, didn't join a commune, free love church, or environmental group. I didn't smoke dope. I worked hard, honored my parents, raised my children the best way I knew, and have been married for over 25 years.

There a lot of us Boomers who are being tarred with the liberal brush because of the media.

my gripe here is using the birthyear as a relevant variable, when political ideology is what is relevant, and crosses generational lines.

I think everyone needs to take a deep breath, and then read The Fourth Turning. We're not as "responsible" as we think we are, IMO.
