The irony of Memorial Day is that Southern women in Columbus, Mississippi, decorated both the Union and Confederate graves in the cemetery there and was the origin of Memorial Day. They held no animosity and honored both sides. With today’s leader creating divisive environments and the VA run by liberal affirmative action Democrats, the former Confederates can no longer have their graves adorned with the Confederate Battle Flag.

Why haven’t we seen more written about the vandalism to numerous memorials honoring our dead military people? As a veteran myself, I am appalled (actually I’m pissed) that someone would do that and given the opportunity, would love to pound some heads.
