Considering Okie IS a Vietnam vet, I doubt he would get fucked up. He is speaking of his own experience numbnut.

You still don't get it do you? You have so little tolerance for learning I am surprised that you can actually type here without aide.

The "condition" I spoke of was poverty you idiot. So I guess you are saying that "acting" black means one must live in poverty? Way to be progressive you moron.

I have to agree. I guess that for some Vietnam wasn't so bad, but - and this is only going off of reports, as I wasn't born yet and can't speak to any of this personally - it certainly seems to have been a horrible and traumatic experience for many others.

My father has many Vietnam vet buddies, and they will not discuss what they did there. Period. They have no desire to talk about it at all. Basic training, on the other hand, seems to be one of the favorite topics to tell old stories about when they get together.

Whatever. You didn't know he was a vet and you put your foot in your mouth. Wouldn't it be simpler to try to pull it out instead of gagging on it [edited for good taste]?

@McGentrix,
I took it as him giving an opinion on his personal experience.

FOR HIM basic training was tougher (in some ways) than going to Vietnam.

Djjd should have no opinion on the quality of Okie's personal experiences.

You have the right to have whatever opinion you like. However how can you have an opinion on someone's perception of one of their experiences?

If I said that I enjoyed my breakfast this morning; should you have an opinion on whether or not I really did enjoy my breakfast? Could you have an opinion on that?

Likewise, if okie thinks HIS basic training was tougher in some ways than HIS Vietnam experience; should/could you have an opinion on that? And if you think you should/could have an opinion, why would anyone care? It wasn't YOUR experience, it was HIS.

@djjd62,
djjd62, Don't feel too out of it concerning okie's opinion about basic training vs service in Vietnam. He's one confused dude! I just got back from a trip to Vietnam, and visited the War Remnant's Museum in Saigon which has hundreds of pictures of the war. Not only dead babies and infants, but deformed babies and adults from agent orange, and the many dead bodies as a result of that war.

okie is a special case of confusion about reality. I've also talked to Vietnam vets when they returned from the war, and they told me about the atrocities there.

If okie feels basic training was tougher than Vietnam, he was probably based in one the safest zones at a desk job where he didn't lose any of his buddies.

Nice try, McGentrix, but I'm not the one who made the comment about condition. Condi was not born into poverty and neither was Michael Steele. If you meant poverty then why couldn't you have said so in the first place?

Nice try hell. I used the word condition purposefully because I know that racists like you would immediately jump to the race card. I drew you out and not only did you take the bait, but swallowed the entire pole.

You think that any conservative that talks about race is a racist and that we think blacks are secondary citizens. It's in your writing so don't deny it. Do the research I asked you to do earlier and it will save you the future embarrassment that I would naturally expect from the uneducated.

As far as Condi goes:
Quote:
Condoleezza Rice (whose given name is derived from the Italian musical expression, Con dolcezza, which means "with sweetness")[4] was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and grew up in the neighborhood of Titusville. She traces her roots to pre-Civil War African Americans in the American South,[5] where her family worked as sharecroppers. She is the only child of Presbyterian minister Reverend John Wesley Rice, Jr., and wife, Angelena Ray. Reverend Rice was a guidance counselor at Ullman High School and minister of Westminster Presbyterian Church, which had been founded by his father. Angelena was a science, music, and oratory teacher at Ullman.[6]


Those wealthy preacher/guidance counselors and their teacher wives in Alabama. Very well known for their wealth.

Michael Steele:
Quote:
Michael Stephen Steele[4] was born on October 19, 1958 at Andrews Air Force Base in Prince George's County, Maryland[5] and was adopted[6] by William and Maebell Steele. William died in 1962 of alcoholism-related liver disease,[7][8] and Maebell subsequently married John Turner, a truck driver. Michael and his sister, Monica Turner, were raised in the Petworth neighborhood of Northwest Washington, D.C. which Steele has described as a small, stable and racially integrated community that insulated him from some of the problems elsewhere in the city.[9] Maebell Turner was born into a southern sharecropping family in South Carolina[9] and worked as a laundress to raise her children. Steele's sister Monica later married and divorced former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson.[10]


Yep. You libbies must have total wealth envy.
