Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social (and sometimes nostalgic) aspects that directly effects Generation Reagan / Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations (i.e. The Baby Boomers) are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.

BUMP.
I believe more people of my generation are seeing this...a fight is necessary to preserve my own future and my kids; and it starts in the home, keeping the BS liberal psychology, smut, and propaganda out; and instilling good, old fashioned values, common sense, and a sense of responsibility in our kids. I believe there is a shred of hope.
HUH? How did Gen-X get in there?
The Boomers are in charge right now and due to demographics they will be for at least another decade. We only have a handful of members in House, None in the Senate and only 1 Governor (Matt Blunt of Missouri and he is doing a dam fine job BTW).
You World War II veterans, you World War II nurses, and you Korean War veterans ... you all have one last job to do in the fight for freedom.
Yeah right! The only thing this group is fighting for, is the right to steal more money from us for things like free Viagra.
There was a book out awhile ago that I read the review on (called the fourth Generation) or something similar. Sadi ho "the greatest generation" that fought WWII was the fourth generation in a cycle. They went back hundreds and hundreds of years showing this. Said that the generation coming of age (16 to 24 or so I think) in 2000 was the next "Fourth Generation". Talked about how they were achievers and builders and go-getters and VERY self-centered.......unless something catastrophic on a nation leval happened which would bring them together to use their drive for the common good.
The book was written before 9/11/2001.
I think our young men and women in the military have shown that they are the next "greastest generation".
Also - I'm encouraged by the increasing number of teens that have taken a real stand for Christ and some of the moral issues of the day.
