12967....."dang the poor kids now never knew...." amen to that, Cherokeee....as was just proven to me about an hour or so ago when a young man (he was 19) knocked on our door to solicit my vote for some left-wing Democrat running for the state senate this year....I stopped him mid-speil, to ask him about his age, his current background, etc. He was attending a community college with asperations of transferring to a major university to study....political science.....which more or less explained his door-to-door promotional gig....I had him stop for a moment and sit down on the top step while I grilled him as to what the Democratic party had done for our country over the past year, or earlier...He rattled off a few "whoop-te-do" types of 'achievements' that primarily benefited the upper echelons more than us peons, which, as I pointed out to him were virtually worthless....I had to ask him what he thought of his current "president", at which time he stumbled for an answer....Nancy Peliso or maybe Maxine Waters, or even our own state's governor....He hemmed and hawed and categorized all of them as "good leaders"....he had no comment, either, on the rising costs of everything from gas to food to services to...you-name-it....as he was still living at home and his parents paid for his enrollment and books and all educational supplies....and here he was, at the ripe old age of 19 (but, nearly 20, he said!) campaigning for some dildo Democrat because the guy was promising to eliminate tuition costs for these community colleges and provide for construction of 'tiny houses' to shelter the homeless, among other pie-in-the-sky promises.....I got off his back after a while as I could see he'd taken the bait, hook, line, and sinker and pointing out those problems that meant little to him were wheel-spinning.....How many more 18-20 year olds are as brainwashed, as gullible, as clueless? God help us!
