More than half, or 55 percent, of active-duty troops say they disapprove of the way President Barack Obama is handling his job as commander-in-chief, according to a Military Times poll.
The Military Times’ report on America’s military, “A Force Adrift: How the Nation is Failing Its Troops and Veterans,” was built upon a survey of almost 2,300 active-duty troops and includes “first-hand accounts from soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines.”
Military Times asked active-duty service members, “Do you approve or disapprove of the way President Obama is handling his job as commander in chief?” 55 percent of active-duty personnel said they “disapprove” while only 15 percent said they “approve.”

Thus, career military like accept all things liberal out of a RAT administration.

I just disengaged (24 years in uniform and 15 as a civilian in the Cyber tech school) and would have put it at about 70% or so - too many of the new recruits have been pre-conditioned to accept leftists attitudes.
I don't know what it is like now, because I retired in 87, but it was't that way when I was in.
BOGUS POLL. The only ones 0 is still a hit with in the Military are blacks.
And with many of them losing their jobs to ILLEGALS they are not going to be happy campers either. Especially if you have 15 yrs in, and they fire you before you can get your 20 year retirement in.
Because the military is roughly 20% black enlistment. Notice disapproval is 55%, but actual approval is only 15%. If you were to focus on that 15%, I would bet good money it's largely black votes. Going a step further and knowing Obamas election showed like 90-95% of all voting blacks voted for him, I'd say he's losing a lot of ground there as well.
The other 45% are lying.
