If these dopes are true genX'ers, it will be fun to watch. That generation is all air and nothing behind it.

It would be hard to do worse than the baby boomers.

X'ers - Chris Ward, Joe Hune(I know both of them), etc.
Boomers - Bill Klinton, Jennifer Granholm.

We X'ers have to clean up the mess.

Nothing against boomers, but I would suggest that the "protest" generation make sure that their pensions and retirement savings are in good shape. I doubt they are. I recall in the early 90s when many companies moved to 401k plans from defined benefit pensions that boat sales went through the roof as the boomers took the cash from their retirement and spent it. Then, the grasshoppers tried to make up for their lack of savings through tech stocks.

Of course many of my cohort are lazy slackers as with any generation, but those who know how to work have more potential than any of our ancestors. I guess we'll see when the boomers come hat in hand asking for us to pay for their retirement.

Mmm, sure. My dope smoking, hippy, left wing socialist-Democrat, boomer parents are SUCH a great example of your generation. What? They don't represent all Boomers? Oh.

As someone else here said, living well is the best revenge. I'm an X'er, have lots of money I EARNED myself, NEVER took government handouts, and I even paid my own way through college. I've voted conservative since I was 18, haven't been unemployed more than a few months since I was 15, and am raising my own children with the morals that my parents seem to have forgotten about. Wow, what a shiftless, lazy, uninspired loser I am.

Did I mention that my parent's don't like me either?

Why thank you for bashing what polls show is the most pro-life generation in America.

Why thank you for bashing me and many fellow conservatives on this site.

/sarcasm

Get a life.
