List Reasons Why Freepers Hate the name "Chickenhawk"

[stepnw1f]

Mine: Its cuts to the truth.

[Jamison]

1. Exactly

The truth hurts.

[hyphenate]

2. Because once upon a time

(and perhaps even now) chickenhawk referred to a pedophile.

[stepnw1f]

Is That True? (nt)

[Richardo]

8. Yes.

See #3.

[Richardo]

3. The old definition refers to men who sexually prey on boys.

Not that long ago, either.

[stepnw1f]

5. It's Always About Sex with Them

Good!

[RoBear]

17. That's not strictly true.

When I was younger, a chicken hawk was a gay man with a taste for younger men, not necessarily under-age. And it was more a type than an age group.

[Richardo]

18. Point taken

It's more of a generational thing - I stand corrected. Thanks RoBear. :)

[Walt Starr]

4. Because they resemble that remark. n/t

[BlueJac]

6. If the shoe fits, wear it!

:rofl:

[Hatalles]

7. I like "pussyhawk" better. =)

It really tears at the foundation of their self-constructed macho wacho image.

[Krupskaya]

19. Why uphold that macho image...

...by using female imagery as an insult?

[stepnw1f]

26. Snort

Female imagery? How about balls... somehow it just has a different meaning for most folks.

[blm]

9. Because they hate mirrors?

.

[napi21]

10. Well, they all think they're so macho, and calling someone

a chicken anything sounds like you're calling them "yellow"!

[LiberalVoice]

11. Pork. The other white meat.

"I dont eat no gull dern chicken you commie freedom hatin basterd! I eat 4 pounds a pork a day and my ticker is fine!"

[Jade Fox]

12. Because they can't argue with it...

and they have been trying, plenty.

The bottom line is at some point you either walk it like you talk it, or you
lose all credibility.

[Kingshakabobo]

22. Nice game of republican twister logic.

Lowery is the biggest chicken-hawk of them all.

This is the same sort of logic he used to back out of a fist-fight challenge from Al Franken. It was almost as bad as "I'd kick your ass but , you see, I have my school clothes on".

"What would Gary Cooper — as good an approximation of the gentlemanly ideal as any — do? When challenged to a unnecessary fight, his instinct would always be to walk away."

[tinfoilinfor2005]

23. ooooh...touchy, touchy...

methinks he got his feathers ruffled :)

[C_U_L8R]

13. Ultimate Fweep in Ridicule

Reminds me of Foghorn Leghorn's
lil fweepie chickenhawk pal.

[Gatchaman]

14. Why do they hate it? The truth hurts

[OrlandoGator]

15. I call them "fucking cowards" to their faces.

Crude? Sure. True? Absolutely.

[stepnw1f]

25. I Like Your Style (nt)

[11 Bravo]

16. Because it can accurately be applied ...

to damn near every one of their heroes.

[Lefty48197]

20. #1: The truth hurts.

and they know it. They're starting to have trouble with the lie they're living.

[DefenseLawyer]

21. I remember the 20 something Hitler Youth

on Hardball a few weeks back, from the "College Republicans for Maiming and Killing" or some such group. Tweety asked him if he ever thought about signing up, and he dodged the question, so Tweety pressed him on it and he said "Well, I'm fighting already... in the battle for ideas!" Add this clueless, rationalizing loser to a long and esteemed list of cowards screaming for war.

[earth mom]

24. Sounds like ChickenShit. Same same. nt

[genieroze]

27. That's the first thing I thought of. "The Truth Hurts"
