Below you will find a post gleaned from Captain's Quarters along with artwork designed by FreedomDogs and proudly displayed here and in my sidebar, as an answer to all the liberals out there that despise our military, by those of us non-enlistees that love and support them and everything they do.They undermine and bash them (and us as well for our 'chickehawk support') even as it provides them the blanket of protection and freedom they so often abuse and claim has nothing to do with our fine armed forces' hard work and sacrifices to maintain.
Captain's Quarters: "Our friends on the port side of the blogosphere have had quite a time tossing around funny little nicknames for those of us who support the war on terror and use our blogs to express our convictions about it. We've seen the names here at CQ in the comments section -- the term 'chickenhawk' has appeared more than once, and others in the blogosphere have assigned us to a unit called the 101st Fighting Keyboardists.
I've thought about that for a while, wondering what exactly about both epithets appear so fascinating to left-wing bloggers. As a middle-aged grandfather supporting a chronically ill wife, I have few options for doing my part in the war on terror. After 9/11, I spent weeks looking into different options for service while trying to balance my family obligations. Our family found out just three weeks after the attack that the Little Admiral would soon join us, and the implications of terrorism and war weighed heavily on my mind. I resolved to use the skills I had -- writing -- to make the case for fighting a forward strategy against terrorists. Eventually that led me to this blog, but in the interim I argued for a continued muscular offensive against the Islamofascists that had murdered thousands of our fellow Americans." more
