President Reagan gave a lot of incredible speeches, but this may have been his best ever.

Indeed. Nothing stirs my emotions more than the filmstrips from the back of the landing barges and the looks on the guys’ faces as they approach the beaches of France.

We spend $20,000 on each child’s education in the public schools today, some more, some less, granted. How many children can tell you what these words mean on this day?

In contrast to Reagan, an anonymous caller to a radio show today pointed out that Obama hasn't yet put anything up on the White House web site in commemoration of D-Day!!!
