And what did the president do to mark Memorial Day weekend? Vetoed a 3.9% pay raise for the military! As Think Progress points out, "to put it in all in context, the White House wants $165 billion to continue fighting the Iraq and Afghanistan wars this year, but refuses to spend 0.2 percent of that amount ($324 million) to provide the troops a slight pay raise." But I'm sure they all have yellow ribbon magnets on their cars, so don't read too much into this.
