Could very well be that the younger generation is a bit more conservative and not so willing to accept the bull**** from the media. Whenever I see anti-war pickets on street corners here in Fresno, it is a bunch of old phuking hippies.

Having taught college for the past decade, I see folks ready to get off their asses and go to work. They don't ***** and whine. They aren't impressed with bull****.

We have a volunteer military...and the younger generation signs up knowing full well where they might be going.

I also enjoy much of the music from the younger generation, some of which is a bit critical of our generation. Listen to some Linkin Park and you'll realize they are more mature than we were (at least compared to the stuff I heard at the CSN&Y concert I attended a few months ago).

Thank god for these kids.
