I don't care why they hate us. You'll not be seeing many Democratic bumper stickers on any of the military bases, so I guess it's mutual...
Montavious, poll numbers don't reflect the truth...

Democrats don't hate the military,if anything we love and fully support our military we just dislike the the way our government has led the military. The current military conflict should have been thoroughly thought out, entry and exit strategies should have been already been established. As of now we have this open ended conflict that the president has no idea how to end. Our military cannot be babysitters for a country that has this long a history of internal conflict. We did what we planned to do, we took out Saddam and he has been dealt with and have established a new democratic government. Now let them work it out. Lets move our men and women out of there and on to a new mission, what about Osama? We still haven't found him, and wasn't that our original mission? I realize that we will never have eternal world peace and we will never capture every terrorist and the president needs to realize that also.

If you take a look at the House of Reps and Senate and who has served in the military you will see that an overwhelming number more Dems have served than Republicans. I don't think that the Dems hate the military, but rather they understand military tactics moreso than their Republican counterparts. I'm one of those Democrat Vets who served in Iraq.

Most Democrats do not hate the military, so there is no answer to your question.

I suppose you have already figured out that the question you made had some errors in the facts behind it. I would just ask that you research anything you hear or read for yourself. It would be easy to see the backgrounds of Democrats on official sites of the US government and even look at the Democratic platform yourself. Don't rely on others to tell you what is happening, find out for yourself.
It would be like me asking why Republicans protect the fetus but hate babies after they are born because they just cut a bunch of money from the healthcare program. Erroneous and inflammatory.
Take Care.

I think you meant to say why does a larger percentage of democrats dislike the military I believe it is the residue of the 6o's hippy generation a lot of them are in power now. But there are dwindling within the next 20 years you will see a big change.

Thats funny, because even the military's own polling shows only 35% support the W, 42% disapprove. So hear you are slamming the other side for your failures, and sending MORE into harms way, Why do you hate our military? Have any proof to prove otherwise?

Where did this come from in your thoughts?
Are there no democrat troops? Are there no democrat families worrying about those troops? Was WWII won by only non-democrats? AND finally, are there no democrat military buried in millions of graves????

Nobody hates the military. Some people prefer not to send our military to die for ridiculous and selfish causes. Some of us hate leaders who will send the military like pawns or numbers instead of the individual human beings they are to die for causes that they themselves can not even explain or prove as necessary.
