i'd always suspected it was directed towards bush, and mdawg's suggestion that it's from a soldier makes it make so much more sense to me. "Who do you love?" likely refers to how republicans are often talking of how they support the troops. a few other lines to take note of
"So the weight of your will will stave off decline
And you won’t stop that war, but that don’t stop you trying" referring to troop levels not declining and how bush wants to end the war with a surge
"And so goes the most of our freedom of speech" most likely about patriot act, bush criticizing people for criticizing his war "plan"
"Your love’s a ghost, and that’s why we’re delayed here" referring to the longer tours of duty for soldiers
