The Doofus-in-Chief strikes again. “”National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day.”

Hello!!! Is anyone in there???

There’s already a Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. It’s called “Pearl Harbor Day”, you moron.

Here’s another one of the veterans: An old salt recalls wounds of Pearl Harbor

That “old salt” is Constantine Savalas, age 91.
“Savalas was aboard the heavy cruiser Astoria that had left Pearl Harbor and was off the island of Oahu when 353 Japanese fighters struck in what President Franklin D. Roosevelt called “a date which will live in infamy.”

Some may remember his brother, Telly (Aristotle Savalas).

Knowing Sidwell, I doubt that it was intntional. If the planners had remembered what Dec. 7 was, it would have been Japanese food only.

It’s an aggressively peacenik place.

I read somewhere, maybe WAPO, that it was “coincidental…”

“Intentionally coincidental,” I’d say. That or they don’t even know what “Pearl Harbor” is.

I wonder, do kids at Sidwell Friends School recite the pledge of allegiance? (…to the United States, I mean.)
