Make no mistake about it, anti-war weirdoes, notably President Obama, dishonor Memorial Day! The nation observes Memorial Day to honor the supreme sacrifice of our soldiers who died for this country. But that’s not true to hypocrites who pay homage to our dead heroes with their mouth, not with their honest thoughts and right actions or deeds. In the celebration of Memorial Day and Veterans’ Day, weirdoes like Cindy Lee Miller Sheehan and the ladies CodePink for Peace Movement, had milled around the graves of soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan chanting invectives. They protested their burial with honor for fighting and dying in what they perceived as an “illegal” war in Iraq. [By the way, there is no such thing as “illegal” war.] Anti-war loonies led by the “Pinkies” [CodePink Women For Peace Movement] did not only insult the burial of military casualties with a 21-gun salute but also picketed veteran hospitals across the country not to give medical treatment or attend to seriously wounded soldiers who were sent back home from Iraq and Afghanistan for fighting an “illegal” war. Their presence in the celebration of this Memorial Day is a great dishonor to our men and women in uniform, because in their freaking mind those dead soldiers in the cemetery that we buried with honor, had died in vain in an “illegal” war! Those loonies just knock you out just to think of what in hell are they doing.

Like the rest of us whose love ones had died in war, this makes people in the press like me really angry. Aside from writing down this editorial I can do no more that could end up regrettable than as a matter of free speech say rightfully to anyone of them … what a jerk! Shame on you!
