So....all boomers and hippies were republicans?

I'm confuzed. Stlolen elections only started in 2000? Womens lib, anti-war, pro-education,environmental issues and so forth are republican values?


:rofl:

We also assassinated Garfield and sank the Titanic.

me too. all I know is that when the war finally ended, I got busy having babies and living peacefully deep in the forest. When I returned to civilization, Raygun had just been shot and there were Republicans everywhere! the hippies were driving bmw's and called themselves yuppies. Plastic was Kool and women wore makeup, and kids wore clothing advertizing corporate logos. boys called their girlfriends their bitches, and the girls wore dog collars.

It was a shock, I tell you.

A lot changed after Lennon was taken out and Reagan was ushered in. Carter would have been relected if it hadn't been for Iran/Contra. More treason that they got away with.

Great post!:rofl: :thumbsup:

Certainly Manson was bad news for the hippy image, but if anything created a chilling affect it was when the National Guard shot and killed peaceful students at Kent State.

Pretty much the same guy.

There were real people who followed a path of enlightenment...and then there were those
who hung out in and around a tree just off campus to make their parents squirm.

Walking and chewing gum at the same time.

"Hippie" for example. I know Deadheads that are repubs, and one was even a birther. That's the paradox of the "hippie" thing. Some "hippies" went on to become drug addicts and wasted away, some had families and were absorbed into the status quo pretty much by force, hell,ya gotta get a job and fed your kids. The Liberals continued on being liberals, and the yuppies never were "hippies", just kids who were havin a good time listening to music and when the fun was over went on to become bankers at daddies bank. I knew lots of posers back then, but I actually stayed true to the course. Sure, I had to work and earn a living, but I'm still a "hippie" at heart, still drive 2 VW buses, and stand for peace, saving whales and old growth forests. The kids I see today at concerts and festivals are all wearing tye-dye, and pretending that they are at Woodstock, but when they leave their campsite, there is trash and empty beer bottles everywhere, and they drive off in their SUV and put on their Armani and go back to work. The term "hippie" was a state of mind, and it's hard to drop out of a society that is all present and demands that you work and pay taxes, but you can hang on to your beliefs and practice them.

:hippie: :hi: Peace.

never let facts get in the way

While the independents turn repub...interesting.

a progression over time, which is not a good assumption. You would need a lot more data to make that case.

You know what they say about Libertarians; they're weed-smoking republicans./

:shrug:

were all different types. Some are still very liberal and some are very conservative. Not all of them went the way of voting for Ronnie and being a Republican.
