Originally posted by JadeDragon View PostNo not at all. I just said that to piss Jubaji off. He seems to think I'm racist so I might as well act it if I'm going to be accused of it. I actually have many good friends that are African American. He calls me racist all the time so I play along. He calls me a hick because I live in Kentucky when in fact the part of Kentucky is just as modern and technologically advanced as where he lives. I live in Lexington and my parents are from Louisville. Both of which are fair descent size cities. Louisville is or at one time within the top 50 larest cities in the U.S. but I guess Jubaji doesn't know that. To him we're a bunch of backwoods hicks despite that we have the ONLY corvette plant in the world, and the best bourbon in the world, and have the Kentucky Derby which is seen all over the world, and have the best basketball winning record in NCAA history, and have the Shiek of Saudi Arabia come every year for horse sales. But we're just a bunch of Hicks to Jubaji.

I am far from a hick. I grewup with both parents in a $500,000+ home, with a Jaguar XJ6, a Toyota Camry, and private schools. Then went on to graduate from college, traveled all over Europe several time. Does that sound like your stereotypical hick? No it doesn't. So you can imagine how it pisses me off to here Jubaji run his pie hole with his false accusations.

Originally posted by Sagacious Lu View PostFYI it isn't being from Kentucky that makes you a hick Jethro. Now the racist tirade on the other hand...
Exactly. I've explained this to Jethro several times, but he is apparently determined to taint his home state by equating it with himself.

Discussions of Martial arts and SD online can be fairly rough and tumble by nature, however there is a massive difference in contributing to the discussion and thus stirring the waters and simply being a disruptive asshole.

This post sux.
TTE - thanks for the update. Presidents aren't really talking with their military advisors these days. Nothing's changed.

I think things have changed in that Bush was simply as asshole who used our troops for his own agenda without any malice towards them. Obama has done nothing but hinder the military since he took office. He seems to have a genuine dislike for our nations warriors, so far he has tried to make combat wounded vets pay for their own medical expenses, he is forcing all active duty to register all privately owned firearms even if stored off base, active duty troops have been deployed against American citizens in police actions, the list goes on and on, end result he's a million times worse for the country than Bush ever was, and you all know how much I hate Bush.

Uncle teaches me alot. Lots o' tough love but good compassion.
Obama's strengths and weaknesses are exactly opposite of Bush's. Obama is an excellent speaker, seems well thought out, seems to delegate well and his presence seems well received in troubled areas (minus the statements that our enemies will make no-matter what) - but like Bush, didn't serve. Not certain how he will work with his mil advisors. I'm on the fence about that.

As for the advisers, everyone I know active or retired hates Obama for trying to make the war wounded pay their own medical expenses. The SF community is mightily pissed about the CIA being forced on them as well, check SOCNET for some hair raising opinions from some critically placed advisers, suffice it to say no one is happy. He began snubbing the Military as soon as he could, he skipped the traditional Heroes Ball where the surviving Medal Of Honor holders have traditionally met with the new president and went to the BET ball instead, he's made his true feelings very clear from the get go.
