On the hippie thing, remember that a lot of people get much more conservative/mainstream once they begin to have families and larger responsibilities. I've seen, ok so this is my generation, a lot of hippies go very conservative as soon as they leave college. It is just an angry right position to say hippies control this country. If they did, we'd have a constitutional amendment that granted women equal rights, pot would be legalized, women's choice would not be threatend, we would not be in Iraq, religious groups would not be recieving federal money and Georgie would certainly not be our President...for the second term. This country is MUCH more conservative than most of the right will admit. You can see it in our federal spending, our foreign policy and in our domestic politics. I'm not whinning, just pointing it out.
