How liberals tried to ruin Memorial Day... again

In July, Gallup asked its annual question about how much confidence Americans had in various institutions. Almost two-thirds (64%) said they had “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in the military; only 16 percent gave the same high ratings to newspapers, and just 11 percent had “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in TV news.

Yet instead of appreciating how our military are called upon to risk their lives to defend our nation against threats such as Islamic terrorism, some in the media trash American soldiers as their moral inferiors. Ex-MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry once said the quiet part out loud, admitting that the U.S. military is “despised as an engine of war by many progressives.”
