Cruz took a pregnant pause. "Anti-us?" said a moderator.

Chickenhawk (also chicken hawk and chicken-hawk) is a political term used in the United States to describe a person who strongly supports war or other military action (i.e., a War Hawk), yet who actively avoided military service when of age.
The term indicates that the person in question is hypocritical for personally dodging a draft or otherwise shirking their duty to their country during a time of armed conflict while advocating that others do so. Generally, the implication is that chickenhawks lack the moral character to ask others to support, fight and perhaps die in an armed conflict.
Considering that we have been a several wars since Sept 11th., Ted Cruz is certainly of age to have served our country in Iraq or Afghanistan in the past and is frankly still young enough to sign up.
Given that he made a spectacle of himself voting against Hagel he now has drawn eyes on himself. Obviously Cornyn had to vote against him as he is old guard Republican needs be keep in the good graces of the Texas Tea Party and his buddy Ted Calgary Cruz.
