In the interest of full disclosure, I am the founder of the Silver Star Families of America.

But I can tell you that the SSFOA is a wonderful organization that helps our wounded, ill, injured and dying veterans.

And we do it all on a shoestring spending AT LEAST 95% of everey dollar directly on our veterans.

I think this is the one Rush supports annually.
I think it is a great charity. No exra money,
if I had, I would.

There likely is no "best" military charity. The one I've chosen to give to is "The Coaltion to Salute America's Heros". They give immediate, emergency funds to badly wounded vets who've recently come home from Iraq and Afghanistan. The funds help the vets pay their bills and care for their families.

Here is a place I would support if I had the money

http://www.homesforourtroops.org

They either Build or Adapt homes for severely wounded troops at no cost. They did a few around me and was very impressed, as otherwise these guys would end up in a nursing home because they couldn’t get around other homes.

Any conservative campaign running against 0bama in 2012.

In all seriousness... I'd say Wounded Warriors.

A good friend of mine is very involved with “adopt a deployed family” through his church. Although this may not be the answer you were looking for, you (or anyone) can message me for information on how to either get involved with him, or perhaps at your own church. They support the local families of deployed troops, as well as send goods to those that are deployed. It is a really impactful program.

Several Marine spouses I know work for Soldiers’ Angels. They help put together packages for troops. In addition, several veterans I know work for the organization. The group is a regular feature at http://www.blackfive.net also.
