Obama to give Kennedy Medal of Freedom
« on: July 31, 2009, 09:05:43 AM »

President Obama will award Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) next month with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country's highest civilian honor.

In announcing the award for Kennedy, a nine-term senator who is fighting brain cancer, the White House called him "one of the greatest lawmakers — and leaders — of our time."

The award comes as Democrats in Congress and Obama are pushing for healthcare reform legislation, which has long been Kennedy's top issue, the White House noted in its release.

"He has called health care reform the 'cause of his life,' and has championed nearly every health care bill enacted by Congress over the course of the last five decades," the White House said.

The medals will be awarded to Kennedy and 15 others during a White House ceremony August 12, when the Senate is expected to away for its August recess. Kennedy's office has yet to say whether he will attend.

Kennedy, in a statement, said he is "profoundly grateful" to receive the honor, first given to non-World War II veterans by his brother, President John F. Kennedy.

Too bad Mary Jo herself can't be there to protest.

This is the "Well done, Mr. Moonbat. You done us proud, even though you're a drunk and a statist socialist lying selfish prick 'tard.

Now go home and die. On your own time, of course."

I don't wish him to die, but I would like him to GTFO of Washington.  I don't think I could take the news coverage when he does finally die.

I heard he needs a brain more than a medal.
He's not getting one of those.

Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

I'll give him the medal, but only if it's made out of a melted down Buick.

They should've just named a bridge after him instead.

And knowing how Massholes are, they'd probably support it too.

Well, looks like the Medal of Freedom can join the Nobel Prize and the Pulitzer among the ranks of awards that mean exactly jack-shit anymore.

****in' commies.
