Ok, ok.

My guess the military donesn’t like Bush, but hate more the Dems.

As Fukuyama once stated, it is like an American Civil War way of thinking : the army is a close institution which doesn’t want to be influenced by politics.

My guess also is soldiers and high ranking personal should have been mad about Dems since they began to talk about cut of fundings.

Having my in the Army for 9 months now, I can tell you that your perception is correct. Few people I have met in the military are greatly supportive of the President, but most of them are conservative and have little love for the Democrats. Then there are those young Soldiers who know absolutely nothing about politics...

Well, being in the military, you can't try to influence politics while in uniform, and we understand the chain of command: the President's at the top of it, and follow his orders.
