Ramadan or D-Day; which will Obama honor?

In Ramadan message, Obama takes swipe at Trump  . . . "Obama said he looks forward to hosting Muslims at the White House as the monthlong observation concludes in July." . . .


Hundreds of dead soldiers in stretchers covered with a blankets after D-Day. Killed during Normandy landings, they lie in a temporary cemetery on the cliff of Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking Omaha Beach, ca. June 8-10, 1944. This scene took place a little west of the permanent Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial. France, World War 2. (BSLOC_2014_2_43) (Newscom TagID: evhistorypix026772.jpg) [Photo via Newscom]

Guess What Obama Will Do to Commemorate D-Day  . . . "Today is D-Day. And what is Obama doing? He’s not somewhere honoring our veterans. He didn’t invite military leaders and veterans to the White House, instead bringing the Denver Broncos.

"This didn’t sit well with baseball great, Curt Schilling, who posted this on Facebook:
I’m now 100% convinced the President has absolutely zero concern with public opinion OR he’s subliminally telling us all to f--k off. On June 6th, 2016, the anniversary of the greatest invasion mankind has ever known, headed by our Greatest Generation, this ass invited the Denver Broncos to the White House. Screw logistics, you’re the president, you get what you want when you want it, this is again an intentional slight at our past, what an a-----e. It pains me to say things like that about our President but he clearly doesn’t give a s--t.

Remembering D-Day: then and now

I'm ashamed to recall when as a teenager how I made fun of old men who looked like this. Turns out I couldn't shine their shoes or carry their luggage. TD
