1. Excellent. I believe Tony Coelho invented the term chicken hawk.

GOP is full of them.

4. Tony Coelho = Al Gore's former campaign chairman.

Good for him if he coined the term.

Of course, some such as Bush, posed for photo ops but did not actually serve.

2. Except for Paul, who like other vets is opposed to optional wars, aren't all of them chickenhawks?

Ron Paul apparently served as a flight surgeon in the Air Force from 1963 to 1965 and then in the Air National Guard from 1965 to 1968.

6. But I especially love picturing Newt's blood coming to a nice boil

& him being compelled to respond about his deferments,
in detail. Maybe something like:

"I secured those deferments, all legal by the way, due to the fact
that I was faithful to God's Plan For Me that did not have me going
to Vietnam in order to avoid jeopardizing that Plan that I one day be
President of these wonderful but gravely endangered United States."

10. Damn, you could be a Newt speechwriter!

I read that with my Newt voice, and it sounded exactly like him.

11. I just tap into my inner nEWt.

3. Gingrich is a chicken hawk and would be war criminal approving of the same water torture

which we used to prosecute the Japanese with during WWII.

Gingrich actually said because we have used it in training our own troops; who did it voluntarily that simulated drowning doesn't constitute torture making no distinction between that and forcing it on a prisoner or POW.

With that kind of logic I don't believe Gingrich could tell the difference between making love and rape.

Thanks for the thread, A-Schwarzenegger.

7. Yer welcome, Joe.

5. He's right about Gingrich. That twit is sickening pushing that tweet about Huntsman. He is right

again, it is not revelant. I thought she was done on CNN.

12. Here's a thread about it...

8. Blitzer just ran the clip again, lol

What a hoot! Never thought I'd find myself cheering on RP, but watching him slice & dice Newt is must-watch TV.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

9. Newt asked for it. Ron'n'Newt! It's a crazy-off!

Yeehaw...

[calimary]

13. Man, they can have each other!

Hi A-Schwarzenegger!

[A-Schwarzenegger]

14. They've got each other!

Hi, Mary!
