Why do electeds put out Memorial Day statements? Any reporter in country writing story thinking, “oh, what does Congressman Schmengee say”?

Why? Because of idiocy like this:
I’m sure I don’t have to point out that Obama did issue Christmas messages. Imagine if he didn’t …
Also too, Memorial Day commemorates the war dead. Maybe these politicians actually think such a day deserves some mention.
