24. Just to be fair... I don't think Bush was at Caen, or Bayeux.

There have been numerous, and simultaneous, ceremonies today in Normandy. The Canadians, for example, had their ceremony at Juno Beach just as the Franco-American ceremony kicked off at Utah Beach. The British were still in religious services at Bayeux Cathedral during the Franco-American ceremony, as well.

I think the only ceremony attended by all of the dignitaries was the one at Arromanches, where it would appear Bush was snubbed. He barely grabbed two seconds of screen time during that ceremony.

And, honestly.. I haven't seen ONE PHOTO of Blair! Did he even make the trip??
