This is the "Draft" generation they are talking about who very likely will not have SS and Medicare and if they do will have significantly reduced benefits than we have. This is the generation who grew up seeing war and violence on TV since they were 8 years old. And this is the generation of your grandkids and my kids.

I really feel very bad for them. I pray for them. After all, where is that value where we said that our next generation should be better than us and it is our responsibility to ensure that we do so. I watched Colin Powel's interview yesterday. He was so down to earth. Particularly when he spoke about his father's generation and the values they held. And this was the man that they shunned and ridiculed, a true patriot. And what is shocking is that the ridicule was led by a duo, one of which had his brain fried due to alcoholism and t he other was a crook who hid in his bunker and devised all sorts of sinister plans to destroy good people like the ex-CIA agent etc.

God bless America
