I was disgusted when I saw Obama was presented with the DOD’s Medal for Distinguished Public Service by the man he appointed to be Secretary of Defense. Way to butt kiss the boss, right?
Carter said it was in honor of Obama having been Commander in Chief. Umm … wasn’t being CINC his JOB? I am not aware that any of my kids were awarded medals for doing what their jobs required, only for when they went above and beyond what their jobs required.
I did some research and found that both Bill Clinton and G.W. Bush were presented with this medal by their SecDefs during their last weeks in office.
::eyerolling:: Apparently, LAME AWARDS for LAME DUCKS has now become a tradition.
IMHO, it just cheapens the award and I’m disappointed that Bush participated.
