My daughter is in the Air Force!
I just found out that she won't be able to vote!
She is stationed in the Azores!
Why won't our government let our Military vote?
If the military vote was included we wouldn't have a second Clinton scumbering!!
We need to have some way for all our Soldier's votes to count when the Clinton 2008 War machine races into action to take over the WH again.

Thank you, my dear gentleman. The poster is a dolt.
The first 'facts' in this story appear in post 65. If Onyx had bothered to find out what was going on before hitting "post", then this thread would have had more credibility from the onset.
As it is, I'm not going to get too stirred up over a military-bashing thread where the original source is a poster who signed up a month before the election.
The thread and the bashing was about those who would deliberately or by negligence deny the military their right to vote.
Cheers.
The new poster (Gitmo Sailor) is already a $1 a Day Club Member/donor to FR!
You are correct. I have re-read the original post, and it is the Republican administration, and not the military, that is being bashed two days before the elections.
The post specifically blames "our government" in paragraph 4. "Why won't our government let our Military vote?".
When the source of that comment has a sign up date of Oct 6, 2006, and the government in question is controlled by Republicans, I'm going to at least consider that a democrat troll might be behind it.
If you want to accept the original post at face value, then you are probably more trusting and less cynical than I.
Talk about blowing your wad, sailor!
Preparation...In 25 years, I've voted once in a booth ...called absentee ballot...
"Is it not outrageous that our MILITARY gets such casual treatment?"
Oh please...taking responsibility to vote is the key...I've never needed Military resources to ensure I registered and received my absentee ballots...
Freepers are awewome. You have put urgently important information on the board. THANK YOU
Hey! Don't forget to let us know how it worked out!
I called Holt's office and they admitted that they can't quantify the risk.

This one came through garbled.
Please reformat and retransmit.
Sir,
I'm approaching the end of my lengthy Air Force career. I've never seen an Air Force unit without an established voting officer. As a military member stationed overseas her voting officer should have easily been able to assist her in registering in her home state and casting an absentee ballot.
Did you ask her if she tried?
