military Wary About Obama
sourceMore than half of active-duty U.S. service members feel uncertain or pessimistic about President-elect Obama as commander in chief, according to a Military Times survey.
Six out of 10 Americans in uniform are concerned about Obama's lack of military experience and their perceived difference in his mission and values from that of Bush.
more than half. but will they stay in or bail out???? its a virus that can run thru an Army and destroy its will to win. or even survive

as well they should be..
there are a whole hell of a lot of people wary of the the little Marxist..
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."

pre election I got a mail from an officer i served with in Nam. he told me at that time over 25% of all serving line Officers were considering retirement or resignation. that's appalling.

well the answer is a simple one, if you do not believe in your commander then leave, as yur lack of belief all bring down those around you aswell, and why would you want to be n a job if you don't like the boss?
If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.

If they feel the same at re-enlistment time, I'm sure they will. Until then they'll do their jobs.

I am not talking about leaving the country, I am saying that if you are in the army, and unhappy with your CIC then you should leave the army.I'm not sure you have the right to tell us that, since you don't live here..if I recall you couldn't stand your government for going into Iraq..did you leave??

Also as a side note, I was angery that the fverment lied to us, for example the 45 minute claim, whicheant we never had a proper debate on invading Iraq, we nvadwd out of public fear spawned by lies, but that is for another topic.

Just like the carter years. The military is going to lose a lot of good people. Saw it happen back then, as I was one of them.
Defense budget will be cut in favor of social programs. Enlistment bonuses will be eliminated. Numbers of active duty personnel will be reduced. Bases will be closed.
When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.

How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

The military survived the Clinton years. It will survive the Obama years.
Not to mention, if the US military has fewer missions (i.e. not fighting wars), shouldn't it get less funding?
