The latest ploy to drive the Taliban and Al Queda out of the mountains of Afghanistan is to send in a team of Alabama Special Forces.
Billy Bob, Bubba, Boo, Scooter, and Cooter are being sent in with the following information about the Taliban: 1. There is no limit. 2. The season opened last weekend. 3. They taste just like chicken. 4. They don't like beer, pickup trucks, country music, or Jesus. 5. Some are queer. 6. They don't like barbecue. 7. They were responsible for Dale Earnhardt's death. Should be over in just about a week. Don't you think? |

Automag - don't know whether to take your commentary seriously or as a bit of sarcastic bombast for the sake of domestic consumption.
By the way, I'm not a hillbilly and I'm not "from" Tennessee :) |
|
I have at least three family members no more than two hops from me (cousins, nephews, uncles) that are legally named Bubba.
Carry on. Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas... |

You have no idea of the how many SF troops from our state have served the country well and made us proud. Alabama is heavily depended on when Gaurd units start getting activated. What you meant as funny isn't. [V] |

I thought it was funny, but then again, I live in West Virginia.

Here, this is clearly meant to be a joke......
The latest ploy to drive the Taliban and Al Queda out of the mountains of Afghanistan is to send in a team of Wisconsin Special Forces. Ole, Bubba, Boo, Scooter, and Frank are being sent in with the following information about the Taliban: 1. There is no limit. 2. They don't like pick-em-up trucks. 3. There's a deer hiding behind them, did ya see da 30 pointer.... 4. They don't like beer. 5. Did I mention they don't like beer. 6. They don't like brats. 7. They said Brett Favre sucks. 8. The sooner the Taliban, are gone the sooner they come home. 9. They have killed people that tried drinking beer. 10. Because they killed 3,000 people in a disgusting attack on innocent people. Not to mention that they are Religous fanatacs that believe women have nor Rights, nor does anyone else that doesn't believe in their religon. Should be over in just about a week. Don't you think? Don't take it to serious, if we can't laugh every once in a while the stress will eat us up. Godspeed. [USA] |

BTW, I didn't take offense at the original joke but the statement that he wasn't "from" Tennessee. I'm not easily offended but it kind of seems like he's looking at us Southerners as something less than equals. That pisses me off because it's clearly bogus logic. Alabama does play a disproportionate role in call ups as well.

Quoted: But you're a danm yankee! View Quote How can he be a damn yankee--he's from Ohio! The way it was explained to me when I moved down here is: The difference between a yankee and a damn yankee is a yankee is a northerner who comes to the south--a damn yankee is one who comes to the south and STAYS. I'm damn proud to be a damn yankee. [:D] Don't ya'll know there's nothin north of Tennesse worth a crap! [:D] View Quote Aint THAT the truth--preach on brother! |

Christ, Automag! It was a fricking JOKE! But your original post:
"A hillbilly from TN calling a special forces soldier a redneck.You should move to the Hamptons if you are going to talk like that about your neighbors.you live to close to TIDE COUNTRY to be such a sophisticated ASSHOLE.Yall come back now ya hea." That was pretty inflammatory - all I did was pass on a joke from an Alabama friend of mine. I was born and raised in Pensacola, which is part of what we call LA - lower Alabama. For you to get your fur all out of whack and immediately assume that I am some "Yankee" who is insulting southerners was pretty insulting and off-the-cuff. Take the joke for what it is, not as some insult. Lighten up, dude - you'll live longer :) |

I found the picture of the bubba's SF team that will be sent in [:D]......(L-R)Billy Bob, Bubba, Boo, Scooter..... Cooter couldn't be in the picture, he had to prop up his trailer.

I really don't see this as any kind of dig on actual special forces. This is a joke about hillbillies that happen to come from Alabama (come on, are you going to tell me there aren't ANY there?)
Plus, and most importantly, it was damn funny. And BTW, I don't see anything wrong with the listed reasons for going after the Taliban...I mean come on, they don't like beer? and best of all, NO LIMIT? Let's go after the Motherf#$#s. From the ND hillbilly, cause I can take a friggin joke. Mike |

Helloooooo......
Anybody in there? It's called a sense of HUMOR. I would take it as a compliment personally - for chrissakes - the joke is that 5 guys from Alabama could kick the Taliban's ass. Get it? |

I think we ALL get it. However, a lot of us here in Alabama get tired of the redneck/hillbilly stereotype and those that perpetuate it. Especially those who don't even live here.

To those who are tired of being called a redneck, Alabama is one of the leading states with military service. Us REDNECKS feed this country with our farms, Protect our nation with our firearms, and hold dear the very values that made this country great. Mike "Proud to be a REDNECK" H. |

Even though some of the bravest in Nam were from the South...I don't see why Ya all would take offence to that but not being told you all in breed.
I say we cleaned them out get our troops out and let them get their government in order by themselves..Or we will be there 10-20 yrs with our fingers up our butts. Either let us get the job done all the way to Baghdad or get out. It will not be an American that puts a bullet into Bin Boys head but I hope it is. |

Don't forget that those Southern Boys from Alabama could probably out-shoot the Special Forces.
