Tucker Blabs "Boomer Hate!" He got his "Talking Points" from the RNC!
Those Boomers (a 20 year generation) are stealing from America...they want HIllary ...Loved Elvis...protested against wars...and loved JFK and those WOMEN over 45 just adore Hillary...because she "broke the glass ceiling." But...those Boomers should be GONE...and Tucker asked the Valley Girl and the Other Female (in the panel) on his show if "THEY WOULDN'T BE HAPPY WHEN ALL THOSE BOOMERS ARE GONE!!!! They both said they would be happy when the Boomers are gone.

"BOOMER HATE!" The NEW KARL ROVE MEME! Coming to your TEEVEE SCREEN NIGHTLY!

(truth is they are scared to death of BOOMERS who had more idealism than Tucker and his Ilk will EVER have in their whole sorry, corporate whore lifetime.

This, of course, is to MASK the RICH IN AMERICA living like KINGS while everyone else lives in Serfdom working for wages at Applebees, Mickey D's or whatever Service Industry that doesn't pay for health insurance or a living wage that can support a family. :-(

12. Unless you're attempting to create an opposing reaction on purpose
in order to manipulate a primary election.

2. Unfortunately, it's not just R's saying things like that.
Thankfully it isn't a lot of people saying it at all.

3. Isn't Tucker part of the "Me" generation
The kind who grew up on the Brady Bunch and the Smurfs, were in high school when Raygun was the Prez? The kind who think Rick Springfield is a good rock (snicker) star?

4. and he can count on about half the folks on this forum to jump onboard the Hate Boomers bandwagon
they've already swallowed all the old talking points from the last 2 elections.

6. what's interesting is that I think Tucker is a 'Cusp Boomer Baby" so
one would think a 'halo effect' would have invaded his pea brain. :shrug:

5. What a hate fest. He gives me the creeps and I hope his boomer mom

8. Bush: Born 1946. Boomer. Romney: 1947. Boomer. Giuliani: 1944. Close.
Tancredo: 1945. Boomer.
Huckabee. 1955. Boomer.
Hunter. 1948. Boomer.

So Tucker must want either someone way older (e.g., McCain, 1936), or YOUNGER! And that would be---Obama (1961)!

9. Tucker is a fool. Why watch him?
Why listen to him? Why are we dignifying this bow-tied idiot by even discussing him. He should be shunned and ignored.

10. It's like a new version of original sin
Guilty because you were born.

11. if he hates the Boomers, wait till he gets a load of the next gen
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1007/6378.html

If recent polls on voter party identification and preferences in congressional races are true, the Republicans’ young-voter outreach effort needs a serious tuneup.

A Rasmussen poll released earlier this month showed Democrats with a dramatic edge among young voters, the politically malleable 18-to-29 demographic that both parties are eager to attract.

13. The "Boomers" have been paying SS/Medicare all their lives...
and they are about to get SCREWED because Dubya gave their retirement money to the super-rich in the form of a 10 Trillion dollar tax cut.

So what is the PR solution to this travesty? Slime the Boomers!

14. Enough with the "boomer" crap.
It makes him sound like a cranky old ad exec who's been put out to pasture.
