To Our Children's Children's Children, On the Threshold of aNightmare
 
Our parents have been referred to as “The Greatest Generation” for
saving the world from Nazis and Fascists, sending people to the moon
and their delayed gratification in the interests of their children.
Their children, the boomers, meanwhile embraced the corpse of
Communism while their elders were busy driving a stake in its heart.
Not content to thumb their noses at their parents sacrifices, the
boomers chose to embrace immediate gratification via massive debt to
fuel their every whim. Now that the bill has come due, in true boomer
fashion they are now trying to pass the bill onto their great
grandchildren via Obama’s “Stimulus Plan” that will be paid by
successive generations. Obama is the ultimate boomer having never
held a real job or done any honest days work he now thinks he is
qualified to spend our grandchildren’s money.

He's of a different generation than the boomers, rendering your whole
diatribe absurd. It didn't need much help.


"Generations" do not have sharp cut-off dates but are more of a mind
set. Obama is clearly of the boomer mindset.

Up until Reagan, according to Dick Cheney, "proved deficits don't
matter", there were only two reasons for deficit spending, fighting a
war, and fighting a recession. There were 55,000 announced job cuts on
Monday alone. Frankly, I'm praying Obama's "Stimulus Plan" is enough.
This is already going to be a severe recession, without Obama's plan, it
could very well be a depression. Oh, and if something like the Great
Depression were to hit today, it would cost this country upwards of $20
trillion.

I'm not sure what the raving lunatic means by "having never held a real
job..." Being a lawyer is not a real job? Being a teacher of
constitutional law is not a real job? Being a community organizer is not
a real job? Being a U.S. Senator is not a real job?

Is being in the military a real job?

Baloney. You obviously have no idea what you are babbling about.


Clearly going into debt via massive spending on credit was a bad idea



Reagan did it.

Obama's stimulus plan could go a long way, if he wasn't using it as a power
play. What percent of his plan is actually going to infrastructure, which
was the big selling point around here?
