Yes, he probably was.....Perhaps he is the overly sensitive type, which would of course explain his utter detest for someone like John Wayne. It would also explain his venom while on virtual communications, I am sure he is not quite as vehement in person, that would take a little more courage then he would appear to have.

Wow, you are not just a little prejudice and bent out of shape by his popularity now are you? Now that you are done name calling, how about giving a little sustenance to your stances? Specifically why do you feel he lacked talent? Where are you getting such information that he is a draft dodger, is this information reliable? Racist, what examples can you give of his racist behavior, and are they from a reliable source as well? McCarthyite WOW that is a pretty deep "accusation" (pun intended) from some one that has done nothing but sling accusations without any backing here. Just a slight bit hypocritical are you? Ah...but you seem the type so I shouldnt be surprised. So Harold, how about doing your research / and justification for your opinions and enlighten the rest of us on why we should feel they have credence?

I am with you ASinners...this whole metro male thing although new wave stinks dog doo.

I will admit it, right away, because John Wayne represents a man that is a man, and what a real woman wants. I am tired of metro sexuals and guys that take longer to get ready in the morning and are higher maintenance than I am. I want a real man, someone that if the crap hits the fan, I can have confidence he will take care of the situation. Todays modern men are impotent, and weak, and if I wanted to be a lesbian I would just be one, not settle for a guy who acts like a women. This is why John Wayne is so popular, people are craving for real men in the world.
