Mitt is the leader of the spiteful generation who still complain that longhairs got all the action.

This is just a grudge match going back to the 60's. This fight has been pasted down to their offspring who believe if they worked hard and go along to get along, the overlord would treat them right.

Now they are confused and angry and Obama is caught in the middle. His mom is who they really hate and remind them of what they think they lost.

Something they never had and were too timid to laugh, have fun, and enjoy life.

2. I've been convinced of that for years.

They needed to eat the acid more than anyone, but were too afraid.

They couldn't get laid during the 'Summer Of Love'.

4. "confused and angry"

key words... but they still can't really figure out why, so they take it out on anyone not like them

5. Hey,. Hey!! this is my generation.

Don't tar us all with that feather.

I used to drink some back then, but never ever did drugs. They were illegal. I was also not rich and appreciated the state scholarships that were easy to get and parlayed my affordable education into a long IT career - until I was outsourced at 59. But , being the ant of the ant and grasshopper story, I had enough to retire then.

I never dressed as a policeman, was taught to be polite, never bullied anyone. You can be a straight arrow and still be a good person. I also marched for woman's rights, marched on Washington, protested the war in Vietnam, etc.

Most of the liberals I know now are in their 60's. It is the ones in their 40's where I find conservatism rampant.

6. Didn't mean to imply everyone, just spiteful portion still carrying a grudge for longhairs.

7. I have long hair. FUCK YOU MITTENS!

You can quote me on that. If I ever see him in person he's going to get a full moon complete with the package.
