At least the left winger that was in the White House then had the steal to fight.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Thank God.  

My Mom always had fond memories of FDR.  Her opinion of FDR was formed by his fireside chats when she was a teenager on the farm.  


                 



My Dad, however, was out working for the CCCs in the 1930s and paying attention to the news.  My Dad was always a stout critic of FDR and his Un-Constitutional behavior.

If we had had B. H. O. back then and FDR now, FDR would have been gassed, and we'd be speaking German, Japanese, and Italian. Well, maybe not Italian.

7 June, 1944; Fighting in Normandy is really heavy, and the Rangers that took Pointe du Hoc have not been relieved and are still cut off from the main forces that have landed on Omaha beach. Even though the 150mm guns have been destroyed, the Germans are still trying to retake Pointe du Hoc, and have the Rangers cut off.

Didn't some Brits stop and make camp and have tea and a news conference?

Yep. One of the reasons Monty didn't make it to Caen on the first day as planned. Of course I doubt if anyone could have made it to Caen on invasion day, or the day after. It was a solid month before Caen was taken,and at a heavy cost to the Brits and the French.
