Second, BHO ran a much better campaing. Get over it.
Third, before suggesting BHO's policy has anything to do with socialism, understand what socialism is. read more. talk less.
Fourth, not all dems are sheeple. if you'd like to engage in proper discourse, let us begin.

The military is apolitical, supports and defends the Constitution, and obeys the orders of the civilian leadership.
That does not mean that we are not entitled to our opinions, nor is it a suicide pact.
As soon as the leadership violates the Constitution, we are no longer obligated to obey those orders.
Obama ran by promising many things to many people. In essense, he bought votes by appealing to people's greed and avarice, and counting on their ignorance. We will now see if he can deliver. My personal opinion is that he cannot, without wrecking the economy through a depression or hyper-inflation.
I understand what socialism is, have a degree in Political Science, and a graduate degree in History. I would offer that my years in a team room and in debating the relative merits of different political systems while living in them should warrant some credit as well. I have the life experiences of having visited socialist countries, and in some cases, assisted with planning the overthrow of those countries' leadership. IIRC, I have lived, worked, or visited north of 40 nations in my lifetime. On top of that, I have more than 25 years of putting my life on the line for my teammates, doing my countries' bidding, and in the pursuit of freedom. What have you done outside the classroom?
You are correct. Not all Dems are sheeple. Some are wolves.
I think you are starting off on the wrong foot, but lets see what you have.
Do you want to give us your definition of "proper discourse"?
