The typical U.S. household headed by a person age 65 or older has a net > worth 47 times greater than a household headed by someone under 35, >according to an analysis of census data released Monday.

Some of us are Baby Boomers getting ready to > retire. Others have been retired for some time. We walk a little slower these >days and our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We have worked >hard, raised our children, worshiped our God and grown old together. Yes, > we are the ones some refer to as being over the hill, and that is probably >true. But before writing us off completely, there are a few things that >need to be taken into consideration. > >In school we studied English, history, math, and science which enabled us > to lead America into the technological age. Most of us remember what >outhouses were, many of us with firsthand experience. >We remember the days of telephone party-lines, 25 cent gasoline, and milk >and ice being delivered to our homes. For those of you who dont know what > an icebox is, today they are electric and >referred to as refrigerators. A few even remember when cars were started >with a crank. Yes, we lived those days. > >We are probably considered old fashioned and out-dated by many. But there > are a few things you need to remember before completely writing us off. >We won World War II, fought in Korea and Viet Nam. We can quote The >Pledge of Allegiance, and know where to place our hand while doing so. We > wore the uniform of our country with pride and lost many friends on the >battlefield. We didnt fight for the Socialist States of America ; we fought >for the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. We wore different > uniforms but carried the same flag. We know the words to the Star Spangled >Banner, America , and America the Beautiful by heart, and you may even >see some tears running down our cheeks as we sing. We have lived what many > of you have only read in history books and we feel no obligation to >apologize to anyone for America. > >Yes, we are old and slow these days but rest assured, we have at least >one good fight left in us. We have loved this country, fought for it, and > died for it, and now we are going to save it. It is our country and nobody is >going to take it away from us. We took oaths to defend America against >all enemies, foreign and domestic, and that is an oath we plan to keep. > There are those who want to destroy this land >we love but, like our founders, there is no way we are going to remain >silent. > >It was mostly the young people of this nation who elected Obama and the > Democratic Congress. You fell for the Hope and Change which in reality >was nothing but Hype and Lies. > >You have tasted socialism and seen evil face to face, and have found you > dont like it after all. You make a lot of noise, but most are all too >interested in their careers or Climbing the Social Ladder to be involved in >such mundane things as patriotism and voting. Many of those who fell for > the Great Lie in 2008 are now having buyers remorse. With all the >education we gave you, you didnt have sense enough to see through the lies and >instead drank the Kool-Aid. Now youre paying the price and complaining > about it. No jobs, lost mortgages, higher taxes, and less freedom. > >This is what you voted for and this is what you got. We entrusted you >with the Torch of Liberty and you traded it for a paycheck and a fancy house. > >Well, dont worry youngsters, the Grey-Haired Brigade is here, and in 2014 >we are going to take back our nation. We may drive a little slower than >you would like but we get where were going, and in 2014 were going to the > polls by the millions. > > >This land does not belong to the man in the White House nor to the likes >of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. It belongs to We the People and We the > People plan to reclaim our land and our freedom. We hope this time you >will do a better job of preserving it and passing it along to our >grandchildren. So the next time you have the chance to say the Pledge of Allegiance, > Stand up, put your hand over your heart, honor our country, and thank God >for the old geezers of the Grey-Haired Brigade. > >Footnote: >This is spot on. I am another Gray-Haired Geezer signing on. I will > circulate this to other Gray-Haired Geezers all over this once great county. > > >Can you feel the ground shaking??? >Its not an earthquake, it is a STAMPEDE. > > > > > AND MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA
