Is this the generation that allowed the leftist plague? The generation of abortion? The generation Free Sex and godless leftism? They voted for LBJ, HST, JFK, LBJ and any other SOB that promised something for nothing,they are not the greatest generation That distinction belongs to those who fought in the revolution

The same generation that allowed a bunch of Spoiled Brat Baby Boomers to grow up and seize power here with the goals of:

1) Disarming the military and civilians
2) Flooding the country with Illegals (albeit with GOP help)
3) Run up a $20T debt
4) Destroy Education
5) Create a virtual race war

What, exactly, did they do to “save this country”, again?

Is this the generation that came back from the war alcoholic, evaded their problems, cheated on their wives, ignored their kids and help pass and liberal gibs me dat legislation?

This was not the greatest generation. They had one significant accomplishment and thats it.

I recall my grandfather (who was pre-WW2 generation) sometimes uttering some quiet criticisms of the “greatest generation.” He obviously appreciated their sacrifices, and wasn’t very vehement in his negativity. But I do distinctly remember him commenting on how a lot of the guys coming back from the war ‘played around too much,’ and didn’t really honor their family or job obligations to the extent he thought appropriate. A certain laxness towards things he felt important.

Anyway, it was just interesting to hear his perspective, because it wasn’t one you commonly heard, as nobody really wanted to say anything bad about all those who sacrificed and endured so much.
