Default Memorial day USA

As I stated, I really just don't like the fact that there are those who
wish to politicize Memorial Day, an American holiday, that honors our
war dead. These people deserve to be respected, remembered, and
honored. This has nothing to do with someone in another country. It has
nothing to do with those who do not wish to honor them. They are free
to be ungrateful and ignore the day. That's the freedom we have. It was
paid for by the blood of the men and women we honor on this day. It has
nothing to do whatsoever with George W. Bush nor how the world feels
about his decision to invade Iraq. When someone like Jim Culp types a
message honoring these people, it galls me that someone has the nerve
to jump on him for it. The American soldiers that gave all for their
country and to liberate others deserve to be recognized, and respected.
DO NOT politicize their day!

That was my message. I stand behind it.

Jack Womack
