Russell Kirk once wrote, A conservative is not, by definition, a selfish or a stupid person; instead, he is a person who believes that there is something in life worth saving. The same must be said for a patriot. In their view, America is something not to be hated or despised; rather, it is something that is worth savinga country that has more to offer than any other in the world.
Those indelible qualities have been incorporated into Americas soul from its founding. These patriots sought a Republic as moral, as just and divine as any in the world. They sought an America full of hope and inspiration for all of mankind. And they founded a country bathed in Gods wisdom, dedicated to liberty and based in economic prosperity, setting a shining example for those that choose to follow. In our forefathers wisdom, they handed down an America that should be cherished and celebrated with every waking moment. And on Memorial Day we salute those very patriots.
