Seriously, if you really liked her, you would care enough to get her name wrong correctly.

I mean his. His name.

The anti-union oligarchs that have moved manufacturing offshore, that have reduced public education opportunities to nil, who have conspired to reduce wages and benefits to record low levels ...

Not on your polling list ...

Trick question?
As I see it, at least in the past 35 years, it's been the rethugs who're at fault.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

??? These Statistics Pitting Questional Statistics of "Generation Pitted Against Generation" are nothing but Right Wing Memes put out there by folks who want to Influence Opinion and Create Discord.

Shameful!

We are ALL PEOPLE suffering under AUSTERITY! Caused by the Banking Implosion and Manipulation of Average Americans caught up in Real Estate Ramp Up and Debt trying to Live a Lifestyle Promised which Did Not Deliver!

Disgusting that you'd do a Poll that would ask Questions about "Whose Fault Is It" when you ignore the REAL FAULT!

the invasion of Poland, King Leopold's atrocities in the Congo, the mafia, '20s bootlegging, slavery, Lucretia Borgia's poison potions, you name it, it's all our fault.

none other than the "greatest generation." As a baby boomer, I've been paying double for my social security since Reagan, to pay for the "greatest generation" and supposedly "save" to cover my own. Meanwhile the money was pretty much purloined by the rethugs in gov't to pay for their tax cuts for the CEO/Investor class.

If you're going to get generational, don't leave one out of the equation.

Between them they voted Reagan in, most Boomers still weren't all that political by then, it was the previous generations who put the has been B movie actor in the White House.

It's no mere coincidence that Reagan's last paid acting gig was the narrator on Death Valley Days, Shining City on a Hill my corroded metal ass.

Robb if you are still here my apologies...... had to do it.

My sister SmileyRose loved your posts and picked "Robb is a dingbat" in polls every time it was offered.

Hope you are well.....
