MEMORIAL DAY: Margaret Brennan Tries to Get Medal of Honor Recipients to Bash America, Is Schooled:

The Elitist Media don’t often pass up on an opportunity to convey their disappointment in the American people, which is part of what makes them the Elitist Media. Memorial Day is no different, as CBS’s Margaret Brennan closes out an interview of two Medal of Honor recipients by trying to get them to bash America.

But our heroes rebuff this weak enticement, and instead offer a glimpse of the kind of character our nation needs to see more of:

MARGARET BRENNAN: And before I let you go, we are coming up on this 250th anniversary of the American experience. I know I can’t ask you a question like, are you optimistic? There’s no way that two Medal of Honor winners could say they’re not optimistic. So what specifically makes you optimistic? Because this country, at times, can feel dark, these days, there’s a lot of darkness. What makes you feel optimistic?

WILL SWENSON: Well, ultimately, because we’re in Washington, D.C., and everything revolves around politics, we have to remember that politics aren’t everything. American lives continue on. Children are born, children go to school. Lives are achieved. Dreams are achieved. This country is a great place. It’s not politics. It’s not just what’s the news bites coming off of media. Ultimately, we continue forward as a country, continually imperfect, continually evolving forward, always trying to achieve a more perfect union. That’s what’s important to remember, what we can achieve aspirationally. No other place in history, time or on this planet have ever gotten to where we are today. We need to be proud of that, and we need to remember that is what we stay focused on, what we can be.

Evergreen:

Compare Marge Brennan's body language with 2 medal of honor recipients as opposed to standard Democratic Party politician guest.
