To correct a few things that stood out in the comments:
Most service men and women blindly back the republican candidate because they believe that is the way to get more pay. They don't back him because they admire him, and most aren't informed enough to be able to tell you what he has to admire.

Wholly disdain Obama? I didn't see anything close to 100% on any of the polls.

Military funding can afford to be cut when troops deployments are reduced, which would help the current financial situation of our country tremendously. Military families can afford a slightly smaller pay raise when their cost of living isn't constantly rising.

My husband has a much better chance of losing his life if McCain is elected, for a cause that neither of us support, but he has virtually no chance of losing his job if Obama is elected. The Army doesn't do lay-offs.

McCain=M Obama=O

Officers M-70% O-22%

In case you've forgotten, we are at war. Our combat soldiers will overwhelmingly vote for McCain because he represents everything they admire in a Commander-in-Chief. Conversely, they wholly disdain BO and those working to elect him.

If BO is elected, our “volunteer” army will be the first casualty of Change Politics. All you young Mommies be Daddies be advised; there is no free lunch when it comes to the choice you are about to make. A vote for Barrack Obama is a vote for a wartime draft . YOU may benefit by his smorgasbord of entitlements but YOUR children may die for them.

Pro-military? I guess that depends on what the word is is.

My finger is way up in the air and pointed directly at you, Mr. Moderate Voice!

: )

Also, they should have left the black wife out. Blacks are probably going to vote 98% for Senator Obama independent of any other life situations.

If we elect a short-thinking, hotheaded “maverick” for another four years, we will be signing our own death certificate. I can't shake the feeling that our enemies sit with baited breath…awaiting our choice. Do we tell the world, in essence “f-you” and give them another four years of the middle finger or do we tell the world “sorry, we may have made some mistakes” and go out to negotiate a future for ourselves?

Obama is a negotiator. McCain isn't. One holds the potential for regaining allies and world respect, the other holds the potential for foolhardy armageddon that Bush/Cheney did triple back flips to try to launch.

Personally, I'm tired of the religious right trying to shove the prophecies of their Bible down everyone's throat…even going so far as to (with twisted glee no less) create the very conditions in the Book of Revelations to play their God's hand for Him. Talk about whacked out extremist religions… Reverend Wright has nothing on the neocons when it comes to doing insane stuff in the name of “God”. *retch*

Do they realize the romans' bastardized Christ's teachings to serve the agenda of Empire expansion? Do they realize every christian sect they've ever heard of sprang from the Roman Catholic Church, the phasod of that ancient redaction of the real teachings? What they practice and shove down other's throats was a brilliant political agenda spawned by the Emperor Constantine?

Nevermind. That requires that they study their history on their faith. And you know how loathe religious extremists are to examine the fundamentals of anything, much less their rigid dogma.. McCain and Palin are of that ilk. There is no room in the world today for religious extremists putting lives at risk for what boils down to an insidious tradition of nutty fantasies and misconstrued messages.

The more “fundamental” the christian beliefs, the closer they are to Constantine's agenda. Rule of thumb. (think: Palin)
