Military vote go bye bye

Military family members share public's division on Iraq war, Bush



Close family members of U.S. troops are split on whether the Iraq invasion was a mistake, and 55% disapprove of President Bush's job performance, according to USA TODAY/Gallup Polls focusing on immediate relatives of servicemembers.

"They've maxed out on the troops. You've got guys who are over there on their fourth or fifth tours. It's ridiculous," says Jeanette Knowles, 40, of Mountain Home, Idaho, whose brother, Jeff, served a tour in Iraq with the Oregon National Guard.

Knowles, who calls herself a Democratic-leaning moderate, says her disapproval of Bush stems from his handling of the war.

....

Among military families, 55% disapprove of Bush's performance compared with 64% of Americans without relatives in the service in the latest USA TODAY/Gallup Poll. Men in military families are more approving of Bush (47%) than female relatives (36%).

Why would anyone support Bush at all anymore? Especially military families? His method of cutting corners includes vetoing raises for ground troops, outsourcing medical care and asking troops to repay bonuses because they got hurt. Not to mention paying for body armor destroyed when that roadside bomb went off and injured them to begin with. No one in good conscience can support a man like that.

I can see clearly now! I've wondered why the biggest, most expensive military in the world, with more than 1000 oversea bases keeps getting their asses kicked, again and again...most of em are fucking retards! Which is hardly surprising since a large percentage of the population ain't any smarter.
