duh, the commander in chief of course:
Cover Story
Troops sound off President Bush retains overwhelming support among the military’s professional core despite a troubled mission in Iraq and a decorated combat veteran as an opponent, a Military Times survey of more than 4,000 readers indicates. (For subscribers only)
Kerry’s anti-war record hurts him Sen. John Kerry lost John Bass’ vote three decades ago.
WHATTA SURPRISE, Would you expect the Gestapo Times to endorse Churchill ??

2. But aren't most of the people who subscribe...................... |

to the Air Force and Army Times officers and senior enlisted anyway? When I was in the Army, the only reason I even looked at the Army Times was to check to see what was the cut-off scores for promotion.

I apent over 5 years with them and never looked at copy until I went hunting for some good aircraft photos to copy. That was it - I had no need for it and I doubt you and me were the only ones who spent no time with the pub.

3. I thought that the editorial staff of both the Military Times |
|
and the Navy Times leaned Kerry in their editorials. Could have sworn I'd read that somewhere, maybe when the Navy Times coughed up a report that supported Kerry during the Swift Vet brouhaha.
At the very least I don't think they're entirely thrilled with Bush.

6. Read Stars and Stripes online, esp. letters to the editor |
|
for a different picture. Yes, there are usually the pro-* rationale people. But there is certainly not just one opinion among our citizens in uniform. That's why comments like Ann the Mann Coulter's against democrats pisses me off the worst. Talk about disrespectful. grrrrrrrr
