Offended by his pet peeve?

Look dude, thank the troops, vets, and KIA, POW, and MIA any day you'd like. But saying "because it's Memorial Day weekend I'm going to thank the vets" isn't within the spirit of the holiday. I love America every goddamned day of the year, but you don't hear me saying "because it's Easter, I'm going to sing the National Anthem." It just doesn't make sense.

ETA: That said, never forget the cost of freedom.
