Tommy Tuberville is as worthless as a fart in a windstorm. He is still holding up 11 Four Stars and a couple of others have joined in Ernst for one, I forget the other.
WOKE - I wish all the stupid sons of bitches that throw that term around would learn what it means before they display their abject stupidity in using it totally outside of its proper definition.
WOKE DEFINITION: Alert to and concerned about social injustice and discrimination
Using that definition I would say to one and all if you are not WOKE then you do not deserve to breathe air in a country where all are created equal by God and are recognized as such under the very thing that binds us together as a nation, the Rule of Law.
The way it is presently used though, is in taking a term that originated in Black Culture within this country, and perverting it into another method of attempting to keep Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, and any other non-white you may care to name down on the plantation, picking cotton and eating watermelon.
I know how you used the word Mister E, and you are not counted among the filthy swine whose actions and rhetoric seek to destroy our nation for the sake of their own despicable form of anything but christian nationalism. So drive on my friend and call them as you sees them, for I know you to be in the company of the angels of do right.

Well personally I never use "woke" unless maybe I'm telling someone when I woke up. Tuberville himself, and others, uses it in the manner you described. He became unhinged, or at least more so when he heard poems were being read on an aircraft carrier. Poems should be read on all Navy ships I believe. I despise as you do the damage he's done to the military, hopefully it can be minimized.
And thank you for those kind words Sir. Carrying On.

Forrest Gump once remarked the stupid is what stupid does Mister. E.
Poetry aboard and aircraft carrier: Francis Scott Key wrote a poem aboard a ship Mister E. "The Defense of Fort McHenry" it was a British ship in Baltimore Harbor. I wonder if that stupid son of a bitch knows that that very poem is what we stand and render a salute to every time it is set to music? No, he is too stupid. I wonder if he knows "More than self their country loved" are lines contained in another poem, written not twenty miles from where I write this missive, that is beloved by all real Americans, defined as those not members of a criminal cult led by a completely deranged megalomaniac, bent on overthrowing our democracy. No, he is too stupid. I wonder if he knows that a Russian Jew immigrant, who served in the U S Army, penned the lyrics to what most in our country consider our second or unofficial National Anthem. No. he is too stupid. Poems express ideas, and some of those ideas are visions of what we could and can be as a people, and as a nation, but he is too stupid to know that too.

Every so often there's noise being made about replacing our anthem. Too hard to sing, some say, other reasons sometimes given. Always been against this. The Star Spangled Banner, Defense of Fort McHenry, tells a story. A story of a young nation at war, struggling for their freedom. A battle there in Baltimore that America really had no business in winning, but somehow did. That's missed I think. If anything, the anthem is too important to be played every time there's a tractor pull, tho I won't protest that either.

I think it's too hard to sing as well, but anyone that brought that subject of change up in my presence had better bring some tissue to stop the nose bleeding that is about to start the moment those words come from their fat mouths. Too many people have given their lives for that anthem and the flag it represents. Others have sacrificed beyond the call for that same reason. I like "God Bless America" better as an expression of love for country, and stand at attention every time I hear it played or sung, but Mister E for the reasons you so eloquently state the "Star Spangled Banner" is an expression of who we are as a people.
Now all that need be done is show the people who would tear down that which has been built over the last two hundred plus years that we are worthy to sing those words anywhere from the most solemn of occasions to a hog calling contest and shove those words and our firm belief in them straight up their asses with a smile on our faces and the warmth of brotherhood in our hearts.
