Honor to past, present and future protectors of America. Sadly, how many of those interred are spinning in their final resting places as to what's become of this country? All the sacrifice for this? Sad dang situation. Thanks to all who have served. Your efforts were not in vain to outside forces but unfortunately we are being destroyed from within. Do the words "foreign and domestic" come to mind?

Arlington, the cemetery Clinton sold plots to. Isn’t it amazing how the press all but buried that? Remember Larry Lawrence? Never served a single day in the military and there was Bubba having him buried in Arlington.

It’s the only cemetery I’e ever been to where I didnt feel creeped out. It’s almost like there is nothing but light there...and lots of veterans surrounding you.

When the Civil War erupted, Mary Anna Randolph Custis Lee, great-granddaughter of Martha Washington, owned the estate and lived there with her husband Robert E. Lee....

Built by George Washington’s adopted grandson, George Washington Parke Custis, Arlington House was meant to be a living memorial to George Washington.

Arlington's link to George Washington is quite interesting.

Arlington was Robert E. Lee’s home. A Union official purposely made it a graveyard to spite Lee.

After the war, Lee’s Son sued to get ownership back and won in the Supreme Court. He then deeded it to the government to be used as a national cemetery.

My father is buried there.

This was Robert E. Lee’s home and estate. Union soldiers occupied it and buried Union dead on its grounds to send a message to General Lee of the deaths he had caused.

Born under Ceausescu, a naturalized US citizen, writing for Canada Free Press, about Arlington National Cemetery.

Admirable, and honorable, yet simultaneously shameful. Ya know?

(fyi, 'shameful' refers to immigrant/new media source, CFP no-less, vs. a US-born 'journalist'/major publication with even a smidgen of honor. Not knocking the source at all)
