Well said! Thank you. Some of us also busted our a$$es sitting in missile silos, on alert, on submarines, in the air flying, in early warning stations, etc. 24 hours a day, seven days of the week so these whiny ungrateful twerps can blame us for all their problems.
Thanks to you both for your kind comments...
Sometime next year, me and the hubby are going to close up the house, jump into the RV, and just drive until we drop dead...we do plan to return home to our house, from time to time to rest, but we do plan to spend most of our time in the Rv, seeing the USA, and we also plan to visit every microbrewery and brewpub that we can find(we live in the Pacific Northwest, so it may take some time, before we sample all of them in Washington, Oregon and California)...
Beer tasting our way across America, seeing the sights and hearing the sounds and meeting the people in America, and all done at our own speed and in our own leisure time, is what we plan...
My son says, "have a grand time", spend all your money, I want you two to die penniless"...You see, we raised him well enough to provide for himself, and he believes it would be horrible for us to die, with a big bank account to pass along to him...he wants nothing to do with it...
Life is grand...
These whiny ungrateful twerps are out in the deserts of Iraq, and the mountains of Afganistan dying for the mistakes of your generation's first president. I don't see too many Boomers out there in the bush with us Gen X'ers. But I certainly see alot of you riding desks happy to have us do your dirty work. Spare me the "We won the Cold War" attitude, most of the people that did that are worm food now. Your challenge was always Islamofacism, and you settled for peace and prosperity. 1979? Osama Bin Laden? The Kobar Towers? USS Cole? Ring any bells? Don't get on your high horse, it just hurts more when you get knocked off.
Cheers,

You are the minority of your generation. Most of your fellows proteststed the Vietnam War and campaigned insanely for a "Sane Freeze." Deny it though you may, the Worst Generation moved the US to the Left further in 20 years than it had moved in the previous 150.
The whiny, ungrateful twerps have NEVER experienced the need to sacrifice a comfortable life. They are terrified at the thought of any responsibility beyond playing video games and watching TV while mom and dad keep the cupboard full of food and do their laundry.
