THE GASBAGS TOLD US THE MILITARY WAS LIKE 90% CONSERVATIVE

A new Pew poll finds that the post 9/11 military are somewhat more conservative and less liberal than the general American public:

Politically, post-9/11 veterans are more likely than adults overall to identify with the Republican Party—36% are Republicans, compared with 23% of the general public. Equal shares of these veterans and the public call themselves independents (35%), while 21% of post-9/11 veterans and 34% of the public describe themselves as Democrats.
