Edward Good:

MY GENERATION:

I was born in 1946 and I am a Baby Boomer. We were the Hippies, rock and roll and we will change the world. We listen to JFK and joined the Peace Corps, we saw man walk on the Moon the world was ours to make better.

"My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."
John F. Kennedy

"Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals"
Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation."
Robert Kennedy

John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Robert Kennedy all died so we would have a better country and now we see a extremest Republican Party wanting to end all hard earned victories that made America the envy of the World.

I call this my generation and I wrote this Quote of the Day about it:

My generation, where are we taking this country?

My parents generation was called the "Greatest":

They gave us so many things:
**They fought to give us unions: --- 40 hour work week --- Benefits --- Vacations --- Safety at the work place and many, many other wonderful things that improve the quality of our worker’s and family’s lives.
**They gave us women's rights that gave women the right to vote.
**They ended children being exploited in the work force.
**They gave us a education system better than any in the world.
**They fought a war that kept the world free.
**They gave us Social Security.
**They gave us Medicare and many safety nets.
**They gave us Civil Rights.
**They gave us the science and technology to go to the moon.
**They gave us technology for the Internet and Freedom to express ourselves.
**They gave us laws to protect the air and the water.

My Generation will be called "The Greediest Generation" The Baby Boomers.

We have a party called the Republicans that is run by people from My Generation,
I call them the Party of Scrooge:

**They want to control women at every level from jobs to contraception
**They want to destroy the unions.
**They want to suppress as many voters and they can.
**They want to end child labor laws and again exploit children.
**They want to end the Public Education System.
**They want to start a WAR in IRAN after they started a illegal war in IRAQ
**They want to Privatize Social Security
**They want to destroy Medicare and all the Safety Nets.
**They want to roll back Civil Rights.
**They want to end real Science and use right wing ideology
**They want to end the freedom of the Internet.
**They want to end the EPA and protection of the Air and water.

Please help me in 2012 and save my Generation from themselves by Voting Democratic.

Many times I have heard that there is no difference in the parties to this I came up with this Quote:

"When we encounter those that say there is no difference in the Parties, one simply puts that nothing that the Democrats support hurts or tries to control people, everything that the GOP supports hurts or tries to control people"
Jeff Carlson.
