D-Day Dissonance
NEW YORK NIGHTS
The moving coverage of century-old WWII veterans getting their pictures taken with President Biden on this 80th anniversary of D-Day has filled us with a mixture of reverence and fury. We revere these Profiles in Courage, along with the 2,500 American souls who gave their lives fighting for our liberties on June 6, 1944. They are all true American heroes. Our rage is directed squarely at the Republicans, who blatantly and proudly stand against everything these heroes fought and died for. Despite their pseudo-tough, threatening bluster against Democrats, we can’t see any of these cowardly hypocrites standing up to Hitler. They can’t even stand up to a two-bit convicted felon! It is just beyond us how any Republican can even look his or her fellow American in the eye. They should be scurrying under rocks to hide from the sunlight of these genuine American patriots.
