Fray Poll for Cons and Thinking Libs

-3 Reply

If conservatives who support the war in Iraq but don't enlist to fight in it (or have their children do so) are chickenhawks, are liberals who support the war in Afghanistan but don't enlist to fight in it (or have their children do so) chickenhawks as well?

Yes....of course....although I really don't think either side should be called chickenhawks.....
Re: That question is loaded..

with testosterone

if chicken hawks are the smartest bird then the answer is yes, otherwise no..

One difference

We have more than enough soldiers already to fight Afghanistan, it's bush's war against Iraq that is bleeding our military dry. So if you support a war of choice that we don't have enough soldiers for, you should enlist. But our existing military would be plenty to deal with Afghanistan if it were actually used for that.

So if we have enough soldiers in Afghanistan already, why do you support more?

I hope you're not getting dizzy from all that spinning!

ROFLMAO!!!

If it weren't for bush's elective war against a random nation, we would have had all the military we needed for Afghanistan.

I'm coming up on my 20th year in the U.S. Army and NG, and in all that time, I've only run into 2 or 3 people who would fit the description of "liberal" as practised by the true believers here, so its kind of a moot question.
Have you always been a fuckin liar?

Like you are in this post?

Who's more petty...Liberals or Conservatives?

I say its the libs...the obscessively rate every con post with a "-" and every one of their own with a "+". Several of the libs (mercurial, mookex, Horus, JesseD, etc) oftent give a "+" to their own posts. I've only ever seen one con do that here. Also libs whine about billboards in Florida and then dive into their usual "Cindy McCong is a cunt" posts. I've already said the billboards in FL were inappropriate.....

Lol!!

You ain't in the Army now, nor have you ever been. We busted your phony ass LONG ago.. uhmmm, "Sarge".

Enlist now.. please!

Basically, yes
by Horus

I oppose both wars (or occupations, a better word) completely, and despise hawks of ALL kinds.

Well, except the ones with feathers, obviously...:)

Re: why are you so completely

Hilarious stuff. Every single liberal I asked supported Barack Hussein Obama's idea to send more troops to Iraq. By definition, that means they don't think there are enough troops. Since there aren't enough troops, one needs to enlist to fight in that war or else they're a chickenhawk.

Obviously I've struck a nerve here.

20 years, and still a "Sergeant," huh?

No wonder you're so bitter and resentful....:)

Good for you, dude. I salute your consistency.
