So whats the so-called conservative christian's excuse for supporting our military, which has killed tons of babies

There isn't an excuse, give to Caesar what is Caesar's and love your neighbor. We aren't supposed to be terribly concerned about anything that isn't staring us in the face. It's mindfulness before the word mindfulness became popular.
You can't prevent abortions by being "against" them. You can prevent abortions by loving your neighbor. Think about any area of the world where we hope to legislate into a better world. It just doesn't happen. We have the world we have because it is comprised of individuals that all act and feel certain ways. Our politicians are self serving slime because that is what our population is. They worship the buck because most of us worship the buck. As intended.
No new president, no new laws, no new policies will ever keep us from being who we are, and that is what we need to work on. It's not about physical fitness, intelligence, productivity. It's about love. Sorry for the combined good news / bad news. Can't blame the senators, because everything would be fine and no stress if you and your neighbhor weren't liable to leave eachother dead in the gutter "shoulda thought about how expensive dental care is before he made that cop mad and got his teeth kicked in" etc.
Christianity has a deservedly bad name, but not because of God and Jesus but because of people adopting the brand without adopting the actions their supposed master prescribed.
