(53,339 posts)8. That's not what the WWII Memorial website says
The World War II Memorial honors the 16 million who served in the armed forces of the U.S., the more than 400,000 who died, and all who supported the war effort from home. Symbolic of the defining event of the 20th Century, the memorial is a monument to the spirit, sacrifice, and commitment of the American people. The Second World War is the only 20th Century event commemorated on the National Malls central axis.

see how far you get with rallies with teabags, budget arguments, abortion signs or confederate flags there.
Betcha even Wailin' Palin wouldn't open her yap at that one.

There's something wrong in those minds. Something bad. Something deranged.
