Normally, we don't talk about elections

Most of us old timer enlisted guys can't wait for a new boss.

Not a lot of Bush votes amongst us

9. On average more GIs do vote repug
That's becuase most are young snots that don't know shit.

And the Air Force is different because we tend to thing more independently, but I'm talking about people I know. Don't get me started of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps... A lot of kool aid drinkers over there.

I'm taking at my base

Everybody knows the stakes. We need Bush out.

Iraq has a whole lot to do with it.

14. Actually that has changed over the years. Years ago the AF
was more strongly Rep. The Navy was the most Dem at one point. But there are always holdout freaks in all services.

But, otherwise, right one the money.
