Military Times Poll: Romney bests Obama, 2-1 - Marine Corps News | News from Afghanistan & Iraq - Marine Corps Times

No wonder Obama doesn't fight for them to get their votes counted. Says alot about what they think of their Commander in chief.

No wonder the Obama administration appears to be trying to suppress the military vote (I'm not saying they necessarily are, I'm saying it looks like they are).

Hey, an invasion of Iran is gonna take a lot of feet on the ground. I guess people are just voting for job security.

Then what exactly are you saying, if you're not saying it, but in fact you did?

No one is going to invade Iran, goof. It looks like our troops want a commander in chief who respects them and that they respect.
I was reading something from a wide of an injured victim of the Fort Hood shooting. She was unpleased how Obama responded to that incident. Just one of many

Obama has said that he would go to war with Iran if necessary as well. Romney, like Obama, has said that it should be done only if other means of trying to stop them from obtaining nuclear weapons do not work.

I'm saying I don't know if they are, but it appears that they are. I simply don't have proof that it's an intentional attempt at voter suppression.

Military Vote Missing This Election

I hope someone is looking into why there are problems getting troops info needed to vote. Apparently, voter id laws are racist, but voter suppression in reality is okay with liberals....since its clear that they prefer a new Commander in Chief.

It seriously is laughable that troops would be supporting Republicans when they do so little to help vets that return from war to treat and heal them and to integrate them back into society. GOP have no problems sending them of to wars though.

What voter suppression is clear? The link says that military members and spouses aren't requesting absentee ballots this cycle. Not that they aren't being delivered, or not being counted. That's not suppression, it's the military not liking either choice and exercising their right to not vote. They never cared for Obama, or Democrats in general for that matter, but they also apparently can't stomach voting for Romney.
