To bad it couldn't have been presented by someone other than crap for brains.

There's something morally wrong about being presented that medal by men who would have (and did) go out of their way not to serve.

i could reply in an obvious political way to the digression this thread has taken. but i'll hold my thought and honor the person. does every damn thing have to be about gaining a political inch or two.

EVERY citizen should feel the pride of living in the same country with such a fine man.......period.

It is tough to not be angry any time the Pres is mentioned.

I only posted it to honor the man who is receiving the CMOH since it hasnt been honored to a live person since Nam.

Anytime one is awarded it is a great day to be "extra" proud of everything our Military stands for.

I admit I get choked up when I read about of the heroic things our military personnel do, but what really hit me was the contrast between the words the Appeaser In Chief said at the ceremony, which I will bet were written by some anonymous speech writer and were probably spoken without any real sense of sincerity by Obummer, and the nakedly sincere and very touching Facebook post I am copying unedited below.

I'll take Randall's course and not address the negative comments prior to his and address only the man honored. My best to those that "cover me, while I sit here" .... in comfort !!

Nobody said the recipient didn't deserve it.

Such a high honor, especially to one who is still alive, deserves that honor to be presented to him by someone who has honor themselves.

Honor is earned. Num nuts in the oval office ain't even close.

i guess obama could have asked cheney to present it.

sorry.....but nothing else really matters except this well deserved and wonderful honor. all the rest is just political bs.

however... i'm willing to agree to disagree and let it go.
