I am pleading the 5th 
discusisng politics, religion and abortion issues never have a positive outcome - IMO
this is true...but I am a glutton for punishment
and, to be honest, I didn't want to get political as much as just get an idea of where people are coming from...
but I should know better...it's never that simple!

I spent 4 years active duty plus another 2 active after 9.11 and I was mobilized, and I'm in the reserves now (serve at the Pentagon.) I am also a defense contractor. I'd say I'm doing my part. Oh, I'm a wife of an active duty member, cousin to a few, and friend of many that are active duty in all branches.
I also vote, which I think makes a big difference that just talking the talk.

I would like to add, just because your loved one is in the war doesn't mean you or them know SQUAT about the government.
I disagree. You know a little more than squat if you are over in theater serving. You probably more know even more than a little if you are home, INCONUS as part of the support, closer to the ones making policy.

My father was active duty Air Force for over 20 years, and has been contracted back to the Department of Defense as a civilian for over 10 years now.
My cousin is active duty Naval aviator. My dad's brother was in the Navy. My dad's cousin was also Air Force. My mom's brother was National Guard. My FIL was in the Navy and the Merchant Marines. Plus we've had many famliy members who were reservists.

My brother is in the Navy and overseas right now. My family will all breathe a little easier when he comes home.
