Troops Support War

Check out this Military Times poll:
Among active duty military, 63% approve of President Bush’s handling of the war in Iraq. Two-thirds of combat vets think the war is worth fighting. A whopping 87% are satisfied with their jobs. And one of my favorites: “60% blame Congress for the shortage of body armor in the combat zone.”
None of this is a surprise to those who have been paying attention. But if all you read is the mainstream media, wouldn’t you be puzzled as to how all of these military personnel could be enthusiastic about a war in which nothing good ever happens?
