Gun rights are stronger and ascendant, people are MUCH more aware, abortion is declining, there is a huge national movement of FR-type conservatives who are shaping events at a national level.

Some people are too easy to forget how bad things were under Clinton. Things were easily this bad.

You haven’t spent enough time outside the US either. If you had, you would realize the fact that 50% of Americans still vote republican despite this media is a bulwark that cannot be defeated. And the fact that 20%+ of Americans are FR-type Rush-listening-type aware conservatives is undefeatable.

Don’t EVER tell me my generation is the problem. It’s my parents’ generation and their parents’ generation with their head-in-the-sand attitude that has given my generation such a hard fight to fight.

I'll probably say what I want, as often as I want. Hope you can adjust.

BTW, you ought to be more appreciative of the life of magic and luxury into which you were born. Of course, again.. kids.

Kudos! There’s more to be said, but no generation is perfect, and no generation is the “greatest”. Even in the time of Jonathan Edwards, Sam Adams, Washington and Madison, the “great” were balanced with the “vile”.

Homeschooling continues its rapid growth. More conservtives are abandoning the government schools. There is push back on the unions ( especially the biggie: the NEA). Charters, vouchers, and on-line educations expanding.

It’s my parents’ generation and their parents’ generation with their head-in-the-sand attitude that has given my generation such a hard fight to fight.

Our parents and grandparents were indoctrinated in socialist-funded, compulsory, and voter mob collectivist managed schools. They were fed non-stop godless secularism with a sprinkle of prayer. No one should be surprised that they voted for Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon Johnson. If children attend socialist, compulsory, godless, and voter mob controlled schools they will learn to be comfortable with godlessness, socialism, collectivism, voter mobs, and government compulsion.
