And as if to rub salt into this wound are the consequences flowing from 9/11: a grateful nation suddenly learned that there has arisen from the ashes of ground zero, phoenix-like, the very qualities of character, courage, self sacrifice, compassion, honor, nobility and heroism of the great WWII generation -- qualities that skipped over the vast majority of their privileged, pampered, precious, post war children -- that have landed squarely amidst the ranks of their grandchildren and even great grandchildren. These are the magnificent young troops of the ALL VOLUNTEER FORCE -- and those who support those troops -- whom George W. Bush has sent into harm's way to defend our Freedom by taking our fight into the teeth of the terrorists.

In short America is in the process of SURVIVING the Cry Baby Boomers' bitter and sustained assault on the values of their parents (whom they bitterly resent), a counter culture assault that has consumed the last four decades.

No wonder the wilting flower children are in such a snit.

Their time is O*V*E*R! (And they know it.)

Dare I say it?

p>Hallelujah! br> -- Thomas E. Stuart br> Kapa'au, Hawaii /p> p> Mr. Lord has been a great addition to your business, and as usual (to my thinking) he has hit the nail squarely on the head in regards to Borking Rush. It seems what the left doesn't understand is that it is difficult, if not impossible, to bork Rush because he, and so many other conservatives they try to "Bork," are not before them trying to obtain something which the left may have control over. They control their own radio dial and that is all when it comes to Rush, and Lynn Cheney et al. Consistency, honesty, and an understanding of what they have and want without needing the left to deliver it seems to be a pretty fine antidote to getting Borked to me. br> -- Roger Ross br> Tomahawk, Wisconsin (talk about flyover country!) /p>
