As I started to watch the annual Memorial Day concert from Washington, I wondered whether it was just the acting by Ossie Davis, deceased long-time host, which choked me up year after year.
2006 hosts Joe Montegna and Gary Sinise answer that question.
No one, except a certified obscenity-howling moonbat, can fail to be moved to their soul by the concert.
Sadly, Montegna reported that, “There are some in the entertainment industry who cite politics in declining to take part.”
Sinise -- whose Lt. Dan Band tirelessly performs for the troops here and in Iraq -- adds about Memorial Day, “It has been paid for by men and women who have made such sacrifices…and continue to do so. To be able to go out and perform for active-duty service members and their families is a real honor for me.”
Hollywood and TV could sure use some more honor.
Then, I could finish their products with more than tears over time and money wasted.
