Obamas face their longest day — of fundraising: Instead of scheduling a brief event to mark the 68th anniversary… http://t.co/ZbJOkCaY

More from WhiteHouseDossier.com:

It’s D-Day and President Obama is hitting the beaches – of sunny California!

Instead of scheduling a brief event to mark the 68th anniversary of America’s brutal landing on the shores of Normandy, Obama is already on his way to San Francisco, where he will hold two fundraisers before moving on to Beverly Hills to stage two more.

Obama failed to mark D-Day with either a speech or a written proclamation both last year or the year before. He did give a speech in 2009, the 65th anniversary of the event.

Is anyone REALLY shocked that Obama is storming the beaches of California and ignoring D-Day for a THIRD YEAR in a row??http://t.co/dXwTSg3c

Man, he hates this country. RT @Drudge_Report: Obama ignores D-Day anniversary — again… http://t.co/q8HDG7t9

Obama to spend DDay anniversary fund raising. Shame, a real military hating Chicago thug #tcot #godblessvets #DDay

Our President is commemorating #DDay by holding campaign fundraisers in California. #Patriot or #Politician ? #Obama

Have you seen the per-plate price of his fundraising dinners today?! He’s got fundraising to do! To The One, that is all that matters.

Himself.

Hey, did you see Obama's awesome tweet commemorating #DDay? Oh, wait…

— Craigé (@CraigR3521) June 6, 2012

Don’t hold your breaths. He’s once again far too busy worrying about himself.

“I promise to stand up for you, like you have stood up for me—time and time again.” http://t.co/XXb4Q4Gv

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) June 6, 2012

Shameful.

Update:

Twitter users, unlike the President, are remembering and honoring the courage and sacrifices of those who fought for freedom.

Update:

68 years ago today—D-Day—the brave members of the Allied Forces stormed the beaches of Normandy. We have never forgotten their heroism. —bo

After surviving two assassination attempts, Dr. Gorrostieta, 36, was tortured and killed by a Mexican drug cartel, her body left in a ditch. She became a target of violent cartels after being elected mayor of rural district Tiquicheo in 2008. Though she resigned as mayor in 2011, the threats continued, culminating in her abduction and horrific murder. Despite the constant threats, she bravely refused to back down from her fight against the cartels. After the second attempt on her life, an attack that forced her to wear a colostomy bag and endure chronic pain, she said this:

“I wanted to show them my wounded, mutilated, humiliated body, because I’m not ashamed of it, because it is the product of the great misfortunes that have scarred my life, that of my children and my family.

Despite my own safety and that of my family, what occupies my mind is my responsibility towards my people, the children, the women, the elderly and the men who break their souls every day without rest to find a piece of bread for their children.

Freedom brings with it responsibilities and I don’t dare fall behind. My long road is not yet finished – the footprint that we leave behind in our country depends on the battle that we lose and the loyalty we put into it.”

Truly amazing. Twitterers are paying tribute to this incredible, brave woman:

This past April, the Iron Sheik shared his own feelings on Obamacare:

But today, he decide to give the people their chance to opine:

Survey says:

Whether these results convince Sheikie to stick to his guns or change his mind remains to be seen. But there’s at least one good takeaway from this little exercise:

The Iron Sheik at Public Policy Polling? With PPP’s reputation, it certainly couldn’t hurt.
