National Tea Party Convention to Present a Special Screening: ‘Generation Zero’ — The Truth About the Financial Meltdown

Featuring more than 40 leading experts, authors, and pundits from across the political spectrum, “Generation Zero” exposes how the mindset of the “Greatest Generation” — to not let their children suffer through the same economic hardships that they did during the Great Depression and WWII — led to the “Me Generation” and ultimately the Clinton/Bush era of trading campaign contributions for government “cover” in the form of guaranteed bailouts of Wall Street’s speculative investments, thus sowing the seeds of economic disaster that would be reaped by coming generations
. I've said it before and I'll say it again. One, they may have been the "Greatest Generation" but they sure were lousy parents. And two, the naked self-interest of Baby Boomers is responsible for as much woe in this world as socialism.

Re: Programs We Could Do Without
Interesting suggestions from a reader:
Keep Defense, Treasury, and Justice.

Change the name of Defense back to War, or, ideally, to Offense. And then put State under it. State was given its chance without adult supervision. It was not able to handle it. So back to the adults it goes.

Everything else gets eliminated.

If something breaks somewhere, figure out what state/county/town it’s in, and let them get to work on it. If they don’t care to fix it, they can live with it as is.

Once I get stuff in the oven I will properly finish my round ups.

Until then enjoy the thought that in my kitchen is a pan of triple-chocolate, chocolate chip and M&M filled brownies waiting to cool down enough to be frosted for my son's kindergarten class tomorrow. (Luckily I don't like sweets.)
