this is the tweet in question.

"Thank you to those who stormed the beaches, took the cliffs and freed a continent. We should never forget"

that is what romney chose to tweet.
Romney is not the CIC yet. You know the guy in charge of the military like Obama is supposed to be. He's more interested in raising money then honoring the troops. Some leader.

LOL. Obama is no commander of the military. He's a chickenhawk.

As far as anyone on here posting, does anyone here take other posters that seriously. For we each have opinions and our also entitled to them, whether others like them or not.
None of us i believe our experts, but merely stating our opinions.

The President tweeted about D-Day?

Good.

Hopefully several million otherwise clueless people found out that today was, indeed, the anniversary.

WOW!!!

Nice to see your gratitude for those that died for this country.

As long as our soldiers are able to keep battles off US soil you can forget that there are people dying, right? Out of sight, out of mind.

Guess you take after our great leader.
