Poll for Military Papers Finds Troops' Support for War Plunging
By E&P Staff Published: December 29, 2006 11:25 PM ET
NEW YORK It's often written or said in the media that, despite public opposition to the Iraq war here at home, military personnel strongly back President Bush's handling of the conflict. But a poll for the Military Times newspapers, released Friday, shows that more troops disapprove of the president’s handling of the war than approve of it. It came on the day that at least four more Americans died in the war, pushing the monthly total to 107, the high point for the year -- and the total figure to 2,997, near the milestone of 3,000.Barely one in three service members approve of the way the president is handling the war, according to the new poll for the four papers (Army Times, Navy Times, Air Force Times and Marine Times). In another startling finding, only 41% now feel it was the right idea to go to war in Iraq in the first place. And the number who feel success there is likely has shrunk from 83% in 2004 to about 50% today. A surprising 13% say there should be no U.S. troops in Iraq at all. This comes even though only about one in ten called their overall political views "liberal." The annual mail survey was conducted Nov. 13 through Dec. 22. Among the respondents, two in three have deployed at least once to Iraq or Afghanistan. Nearly three-quarters of the respondents think today’s military is stretched too thin to be effective. ..........

This news should send freezing chills up Bush's spine. Military people are the old fashion "Can Do" types who go by the saying "the difficult we do immediately, the impossible take a little longer." Re-enlistments all during the war has been the one bright spot for recruiters but with the troops now feeling this way we could begin to see a flood of experienced people leaving, Iraq falling further apart as American combat patrols start going by the old Vietnam rule I heard about in which no one wants to die for a lost cause so they don't do much in the way of keeping civil order, and even worse demoralized troops start fragging gung-ho officers so they can stay out of harms way.
Bush is building himself a huge legacy, no wonder Jeb said the other day he had no future.
will the king be brought up on charges (as a war criminal)? he should be
how even ONE person can support this administration is so beyond my comprehension.........
