Quote of the day: “Obama Beach”

June 6, 2009

You knew it would happen. But it at least isn’t as bad as “Osama”. Prime Minister GORDON BROWN needs a break. He accidentally said “Obama” Beach. But the thought and the sound of it is very nice.

So next to Obama Beach, we join President Obama in paying particular tribute to the spectacular bravery of American soldiers, who gave their lives on Ob-Omaha Beach, for people whose names they never knew, who faces they never saw and yet people who have lived in freedom thanks to their sacrifice and valor.

It was nothing less than extreme acts of courage by men and boys who loved their country. Especially the ones who scaled the cliffs with the Germans shooting down at them.
