The Longest Day (Of Fundraising)

Les Braves - French sculptor Anilore Banon's tribute on Omaha Beach

The White House commemorated the 68th anniversary of the D-Day invasion by releasing a video of President Obama's 2009 speech at Normandy.

That's it. No speech today, other than the ones he gave at four fundraisers in California. There was no special event, recognition of World War II veterans, or of military families, or anything of the sort.

If he's going to blow the anniversary off, I'd prefer that he ignore it completely rather than send out a lame re-run from three years ago.
