The president spoke after participating in a solemn Memorial Day tradition, laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery. It is the burial ground for American veterans dating back to the Revolutionary War.
WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!
Arlington Cemetery dates only back to the American Civil War. Previously it was General Lee's family plantation (nice of the Union to make it a cemetary).
The Tomb of the Unknown Revolutionary War soldier is buried in a churchyard in Alexandria, Virginia. I've been there.
It is sheer unadulterated laziness on the part of the AP to begin their article in this way. And stupid. Ugh! No wonder the press is dying.
The rest of the article talks about their precious Obama and what wreaths he sent where.
