‘Twas a misprint.

It’s over 99.9% don’t support the dork.

We are severely testing the military’s professionalism.

When the first soldier dies of Ebola, I would look the other way if Obama found it impossible to leave the White House.

And let’s break down the make-up of those often seen in these ‘photo ops’, shall we? Usually females, blacks, and those two white guys you see are probably homosexuals. That’s about it.

It could be pretty close to that.

In 2008 Obama got a roughly estimated 23% of the military vote, so today it could be down to an area of 12% to 18% or something.

This is why some states make it difficult for the services to vote absentee.

I seem to remember that in the Bush-Gore election, Florida declared that the military ballots lacked the proper postmark, and Ohio sent the ballots out too late for them to be returned before the deadline.

Over 90% of American troops are patriotic? I don’t think that is breaking news.

Last year I saw a military convoy driving south on I-5 outside of Fort Lewis. One of the vehicles had a hand-written sign on the back that said “Buck Ofama”. It made my day to see that.

Bull. What was the vote last election? As I remember, only 68% voted against him. He was well over 96% of blacks in the military voted for him.

And, as I remember back in my days in the Army, blacks made up a larger percentage of the Army based on whites/blacks/Hispanics in the population. Like the US population of blacks was like (this is a wild guess by me) 20% of the population, but the percentage in the military was like 60%. So per average of the US population, blacks were far more in the military that whites. Obama got the massive majority of black votes. Back when Reagan ran, I know that he got like 85% of the vote as I remember someone saying. That may not be right, but that is what I recall someone saying on the news, that he blasted Carter because Carter cut our pay raises to 1% for all four years he was in office. Reagan immediately gave us like a 11% and 15% pay raises to catch the military back up with the outside pay.

So if the military is against Obama, the 32% that helped put his dirty butt in the military need to look in the mirror and see that they are guilty of putting him there.

I take comfort that the vast majority of our military would likely mutiny rather than follow a presidential order to shoot US citizens. However, Obama is heavily arming executive agencies which could be seen as more loyal to the president. Remember the stand off in Nevada with Cliven Bundy where a heavily armed conglomeration of federal executive personnel including snipers where ready to shoot to kill?

Without reading the article, I can guess that nearly any military person who is not in the military as a jobs program (that is, they are serving because they believe that military service is honorable and patriotic) is not going to support Obama or nearly any modern liberal.

The simple fact is that liberals pay lip service to military veterans and service, but they believe in their hearts that it is wasted money that would be better spent combating poverty, ignorance and disease. They resent that we have to buy planes, build ships and pay military personnel both active and retired.

And any military person who has a brain, or a smidgen of awareness knows this is the simple truth.

This does disregard those liberals who joined the military because they think its job is to provide aid to disaster victims, or liberals who want to destroy the military from within, military personnel who may have a common skin pigmentation with Obama that drives all their judgement and values, and others who support Obama because they are dopes who believe his BS.

It is a simple fact that even though GWB SENT many military people into situations where they might lose their lives, often under circumstances that were not well thought out or planned, they still largely supported Bush, because his respect, admiration, and support of the military was not contrived.

The honest truth cannot be contrived, and many people serving can pick that up right away. Just my opinion from my childhood as a military dependent, my own service years ago and interactions with military personnel both active duty and retired since then.
