Memorial Day: Remembering what our servicemen died for
Freedom is worth preserving
On Memorial Day, we honor and remember the hundreds of thousands of men and women who have died protecting the United States. Their deaths have given us the freedom we have today. Did they die in vain? Was — is — freedom worth defending? That's not a rhetorical question. Many of our elected officials won't say it publicly, but their actions indicate that they don't believe in freedom.
