There is an old clique, "If your not a liberal by the time your 20 you have no
brain, and if your not a conservative by the time your 30 you have no brain."
Some of us just get to 30 quicker then other.

This article has four spelling mistakes:  "clique" should be "cliche";
"your" should be "you're"; "then" should be "than"; and "other"

More to the point, the epigram (attributed to a British politician, who
was justifying his own philosophical evolution) should read more like:
  
  If you're not a liberal at 20, you have no *heart*;
  if you're not a conservative at 40, you have no *head*.

Which makes something of a difference.  It appears that some skipped
their 20's.  Appropriate inferences apply.
