people brag up the greatest generation.........in fact they overwhelmingly voted in LBJ and kept congressional democrat majorities in power year after year........creating the welfare state and Vietnam
us Boomers , we voted in Reagan .......
Boomers fell for the Great Society BS, but it was LBJ, Humphry, McNamara and their generation that birthed it and then sold the snake oil for votes....
However, few things sadder or funnier than an old hippy who can't escape.....
horse pucky.............the voters in LBJ and McNamara s day were mostly the older generation or maybe Korean war era
most of the boomers in that day were still school children....and you had to be 21 to vote up until 1970
true that a bullet put LBJ in office at first , but the older folks had a chance to rid themselves of the bastid in 64 and get a really good man in Goldwater , but they overwhelmingly chose the bastid
remember , the greatest generation grew up with the New Deal , and massive govt during WW2
they were no strangers to big govt.
