It could go either way.
Technically, Active and Reserve Components comprise the military.
The National Guard belongs to each State until such time as they are 'Federalized'. When Federalized they serve the President.
When not Federalized they answer to the Governor of that State.
If the Texas Air National Guard wasn't federalized 'Called up', during Bush's time, I could see the answer being a grey area.
It looks like the site is returning a 'Bush' choice whether you prefer 'Military' or 'Non-Military', based on the above.
I could be wrong, the site may be slanted and trying to make a statement. You don't know who to believe about anything anymore.

My foreign policy would be easy, too. I wouldn't send any troops on foreign soil, only our bombs. The troops will hang out in the gulf or our allies' air bases to reload and lob 'em in. Civilian casualties? Too bad. I like the idea of blowing up the whole barrel to exterminate a few bad apples. That ensures all the bad apples are gone. I wish they'd just nuke Detroit already.

I'm not a Catholic or a bigtime protestor (never took to the streets to protest anything in my life)...but I saw these pictures of what abortion really looks like and it just breaks my heart - but makes me very angry at the same time. I can't help but think how we as a society can sit back and let thousands of these happen each year. Check out the later abortions. Any doubt these are alive?...human?..can feel pain? http://www.priestsforlife.org/resour...ages/index.htm
It's really sad. Maybe you wouldn't vote for someone based solely on their abortion stance, but it's worth giving some thought.
P.S. I assume some of the photos of the crosses in the salt poisonig section of from someone that took the aborted babies and provided a proper burial for them. I don't know why they'd be there otherwise. It's certainly not something the 'clinics' are doing.

You'd have my vote.Kinda strange... I went on that website, and just for fun, went through saying I strongly opposed everything, and it came back Kerry. So I thought I was good with Bush.
But then I went through and strongly approved everything, and it came back Kerry.
WTF?
