Like a massive black hole the boomers' mass twists the light of history around their soulless self center. King, Kennedy, Obama not boomers! Boomer ideals?!? Botox and Viagra (read screwing future generations). George W. Bush *is* the culmination of boomer history -- a drug addled coward who sent "his" children to die in another Vietnam, soiled the nest for future generations, and when confronted with indisputable failure compared himself to Lincoln. It will take generations to erase the stain of the boomers. History will be corrected once academia is pried from their cold dead hands.

A Princeton and Harvard Law School graduate and all Kaplan can do is talk about her ass?!? Does Salon have to print every black person's opinion on the future first lady no matter how asinine?

With Botox, Viagra, and stimulus packages that’ll suck the life out the young and future generations the love affair with vampires is probably some kind of daddy fantasy. Besides the dead faced guy sitting across the dinner table who just raided your college fund to buy a new sports car is literally closer to a vampire than syphilis ever was.

Mr. Koppelman and Mr. Madden are full of crap. I dislike Republicans as much as the next guy, but the bottom line is that Nissan, Toyota, Honda, VW, etc. employ Americans, pay decent wages, have good benefits, and make better cars. Most Americans know this and could care less if GM, Ford and Chrysler went out of business. Yeah unemployment is not fun, but instead of throwing money into the sinkhole that is the domestic auto industry we should invest in a decent safety net that would make *all* unemployed American’s life less miserable.

Anyone with a brain can see that the real problem is the *me* generation sucking up everything in sight when they retire. It is tragic. Gen X is a blip in the demographic landscape. Not only can we not contend with your numerical majority, but once retired you will have lots of free time to pester politicians and get what you want.

Fitting end really, when young, you were too cowardly to fight and die in enough numbers to help the future. When you entered the workplace you advocated for tax cuts, saved next to nothing, and let the infrastructure crumble.

Now that you are about to retire, you want to us to pay for your Viagra, so that you can continue to screw us until you die.

Soylent Green is starting to look more Utopian every day. How about it, if you *really* want to help, you should go home early.
