Support for Chimp in military. Genuine?

I keep hearing and reading things that indicate growing discontent with the administration. For example, there were apparently bootleg copies of F-911 being shown in Iraq and a lot of soldiers were watching it and upset by the film. It got so bad that it was affecting morale in some units. But at the same time, I keep seeing polls that have Bush scoring really high with military personnel. I'm not sure I believe it. Military folks tend to be very afraid to express opinions or admit to things that differ from the "official" line. When I was in the Navy, drug use was fairly common despite the zero tolerance and harsh penalties. I admit to partaking a few times myself. The DOD conducted anonymous surveys on personnel issues. I remember always answering "no" to the question of drug use. I just had a nagging suspicion that my answers could be traced back to me. I think a lot of others felt the same way because it would always come out with only 1-2% admitting to it. There's no way in hell the number was that low. When my ship was in Canada 80% of the crew would be getting stoned. So I'm wondering if that's what's going on with the alleged Bush support. It just doesn't add up to me.

If you want to see a real ugly situation.

you were in the navy, you know you could always praise your elders in public, but lord help you if you critiqued them, especially in uniform

While at Pearl Harbor, before my husband retired, (last year) I heard much discontent at the PX from both active duty and families... heck I remember one converstaion between Marine son and Retired Gunny... lets just say it was enlightening but they clamped back up when Shore Patrol showed up

It must be hard to not believe in a war when friends get killed. What reason could you talk your self into to make dying good? It has to put a mother in a bad place also. One problem is the service has the President as a leader but the person is to defend the US Constitution. That is what he fights for. That is why Germany had such a time. They swore their lives to Hitler not Germany.Look at Vietnam. Started with a few 100 under Ike and when through Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon.And from the start it was a man who took us to war not a constitutional vote in congress. This one will be as long and done in the same back door way. I do not think the people will hold out for an endless war and we do not seem to have the number to do it.
