Kathryn Jean Lopez on the Restoring Honor Rally

Kathryn Jean Lopez, a nationally syndicated columnist and an editor at National Review (online and print editions), has written a column on the recent recent Restoring Honor rally on the National Mall.

Although many of the media reports on this rally focused on the participation of Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin, Ms. Lopez focused on the theme of the rally itself, and what it means for the United States.

This rally was designed to be a non-political event to pay tribute to United States service personnel and other upstanding citizens who embody the nation’s founding principles of integrity, truth, and honor.

One of the comments Ms. Lopez made was that "What was best about the Honor rally was also what made it incomplete. It was great civics, but it only went so far. Where do we go from here? Back to our churches, this was clear, and back to our political engagement, too."

She encourages us, the people of the United States, to be involved in elections with "a spirit of seriousness and even love."
