Ugh.

I saw this at Oxblog:

MICHAEL LEDEEN WRITES:

Anybody else notice that the Washington Post today has not a single tribute to a fallen warrior?

But the title of the Post's lead editorial is "Memorial Day", in which the editors observe that

"What ought to be unquestioned among us is the honor due those who have little to say about the rightness of a war but who take on the duty of fighting it."

If smugness were a smell this would stink to high heaven.

An Iowa Voice noticed this:

Anyone else notice that Google didn't put up a holiday logo for Memorial Day?

They will celebrate "World Water Day" or Frank Lloyd Wright's birthday, but no Veteran's Day or Memorial Day?
