That is sad. I supported ‘Bush’s war’ wholeheartedly, for the purpose of bringing more western influence to a neighbor of Iran. Now that The One is giving Iran parity with ‘all other nations’ I feel like he is dissing every military person and their families who have been involved with Iraq.

I despise Obamao.

Yes it is...I also supported “Bush’s war” and am disappointed that it’s not gone as well as expected. Wish we WERE out of there but for all the right reasons...I too despise BHO...and am so disheartened that there doesn’t appear to be anyone in (leadership) opposition to what he’s doing who’s willing to take on the good fight.

Maybe the THE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO DEATHS WE HAVE CAUSED EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY in your fathers mind are partially assuaged by the MILLIONS ANDS MILLIONS OF ENSLAVED PEOPLE OF EASTERN EUROPE WE HELP SET FREE under ENLIGHTENED PEOPLE like Reagan.

I feel your pain, I have a brother that suffers under a brain damaging case of BDS as well. To him, Bush is evil personified

Obama says he “likely” won’t be the last POTUS to honor the D-Day commemoration.
_____________
Did he really say that? If so, our suspicions have just been confirmed.

Thank you for sharing your memories of your dad and his wartime experiences. We don't mind at all.....this is the day and and this is the place to do it, right here on FR.

It brought a tear to my eye, too. Be proud! You have a real hero for a dad. I appreciate his service and his courage. It was a living hell on those beaches.

God Bless America and All Veterans!

That is a true American patriot. No matter how many times I hear that speech, it never fails to give me goosebumps. What a wonderful man he was and he dearly loved this country.

I really miss having a real President like Reagan. Shocking to compare his view of our nation vs O’s view.

One of Reagan's best attributes was his grasp of our nation's greatness, and his celebration of that. He used that as a focal point to say that we could overcome any problem thrown at us.

We sorely need that today. Sarah Palin is the only politician that I have heard gets close to saying this.

You now- I didn’t like it much when Bill Clinton was there either, but I’d give anything for it to be him there today.

Which proves the adage that it can always be worse.

Today is the 65th anniversary. The 70th will be 2014. O will only be there if he wins in 2012. President Palin sounds real nice doesn’t it?

Reagan did not have comabt experience in WW2.

He was already an established Hollywood actor, and he had poor eyesight, so the Army used him in training films from 1942-1945.

I believe he rose to the rank of Captain by the time he was discharged.

Back then, Hollywood types were eager to do their part for their country,

Not like today’s posers.
