It doesn't matter who is on whatever side, your misuse of "chicken hawk" is mind-blowing. Please reserve this designation for:

1. Bush, Cheney and the rest of the complete scum warmongers who never went to Viet Nam. 99% Repugs, its amazing that people forget this. Air National Guard, either rich kids or a lot of sports guys, all very lucky men. Am I imagining as I remember this as it happened in the 1960's??? WTF!

2. The NAMBLA "people" -----YIKES!!!

See: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109410/

3. That great book about Viet Nam and helicopters by Robert Mason

See: http://www.amazon.com/Chickenhawk-Robert-Mason/dp/0143035711

Whatever the view, we have to remain true to the facts here at DU, there is plenty we disagree about. But we must not forget who is who...
