Young people go along with whats hip. It was hip to support Obama and the Democrats, now it isn't.

This may sound selfish on my part, but I was kind of excited when Obama lost so much support because I felt it was safe to start publicly liking him again without sounding like a brainwashed Hope&Change man.  Those days when he was at 60%+ approval made me somewhat embarrassed to like him.

Kids!  I don't know what's wrong with these kids today.
Kids!  Who can understand anything they say.
Kids!  They are disobedient, disrespectful oafs.
Noisy, crazy, sloppy, lazy loafers.
And while I'm on the subject,
Kids!  You can talk and talk 'til your face is blue.
Kids!  But they still do just what they want to do!
Why can't they be like we were?
Perfect in every way!
What's the matter with kids today?
