Boy you are amusing; Yes in 2000, 55% of both Active Duty and Veteran votes were for bush, oh wait..."During the chaotic 2000 election, thousands of troops overseas voted for president, only to have their ballots rejected. Others did not receive ballots at all. And some found the entire process confusing." ~Washington Post...So, out of the 55% statistic...how many thousands of service members had their vote rejected? How do you really know what the "majority" did? That is a simple answer YOU DON'T Let's also not forget that Active-Duty Military Personnel Petitioned Congress to End War; not to mention close to 60% of OIF/IEF Vets were also there...If you would like to continue to sit behind your computer and do nothing but talk shit, why don't you walk down to the nearest military recruiter and sign up...tell them that you want to be put on the first plane to Iraq; Once you spend a couple years there, then you have the right to talk shit. Oh, speaking of having "the right", military personnel DO NOT hold the right to half of the rights that you have. There is no freedom of speech! They don't have the right to speak their mind. Or maybe you don't believe that either. And for your information I was a Chief Warrant for four years, which also meant that I spent 8 years as an enlisted soldier and 4 of those years as a Staff Sergeant.
