K-Lo, This is my opinion (and you probably won’t like it much), but oh well: Most military guys aren’t very political, period. It’s true that the ones that are political probably trend more conservative than liberal (although I know plenty of Democratic supporters in uniform). It’s also true in the Air Force that the officers probably lean more conservative than the enlisted. But, the idea that the military is a hotbed of social conservatives is, well, bunk. In the Air Force, you’ll find a few hardcore religious types. Personally, I think it is due to the close proximity between the Air Force Academy and James Dobson’s church. But, they are the exception and not the norm. Me? I’m basically a Giuliani-style conservative and pro-choice (with limitations). I think you (like some others on the right side of the blogosphere) are guilty of seeing the troops as you want to see them, not how they are. Feel free to quote me, but please withhold my name if you do.
