RUSH: Shreveport, Louisiana, home of Terry Bradshaw of the Steelers, and Hal Sutton, PGA Tour. This is Keith. Nice to have you on the program, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Dittos, Rush. Hey, man, I love you, but I\u2019m damn tired of you bashing the Boomers all the time. You are a Boomer. We\u2019re one of the greatest generations this country\u2019s ever had.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Some of us are, yes.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, the majority of us are. But you don\u2019t hear about us because we\u2019re working our ass off — <\/p>\n

RUSH: I talk about you all the time. I praise you guys all — you are the backbone of —<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, please, Rush. Come on, man. You\u2019re bashing us all the time, why don\u2019t you put the blame where it belongs, on the World War II generation? They\u2019re the ones that started Social Security. Then LBJ came along and screwed us some more. Come on. It won\u2019t stop. When do we get \u2019em paid back? Thank you for saving us from —<\/p>\n

RUSH: An intergenerational fight has broken out here on the EIB Network. You know, I understand your point because while the Greatest Generation did some great things, they also gave themselves an entitlement program.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And now they expect everybody else to pay for it because of their great sacrifice in saving the country.<\/p>\n

CALLER: They did the same thing we would have done if it had been at our feet. We didn\u2019t start Vietnam but we got tossed into it. Now, my dad was from the World War II generation, he taught me an immense amount of things. But all he did was put his head down and butt up and worked his ass off. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Right, so did my dad, too, but there are a lot of Boomers who will not even look at their butts, much less work their asses off because they want to whine and moan about the fact that things aren\u2019t going well for them. A lot of Boomers, compared to their parents, we had to invent our own traumas out there, Keith. You know I\u2019m right about this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
