SIERRA VISTA — The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution is donating $10,000 to help with the construction of a chapel at the Southern Arizona Veterans’ Memorial Cemetery Foundation. The grant request was sponsored by the Tombstone DAR Chapter.

It led Foundation President Ingrid Baillie to thank the national DAR for its “large gift,” and she added, “We realize this grant is just one of many that have been made to the foundation in support of the Chapel Project, and is one of many awarded by the DAR each year to preserve our nation’s history and patriotism.”

Good for the DAR...

They have done a lot of good for America over the years...

However many of the members voted for Obama...

[Help!]

The DAR does do lots of good and the ladies are very pleasant people. Their ritual involves reciting the preamble to the Constitution, the American’s Creed, The Pledge of Allegiance, and singing the National Anthem. Sometimes I wonder how all those League of Women Voters Democrats can get through the ceremony without choking on their political fare.
