OBAMA HITS NEW LOW - GIVES HIMSELF A DISTINGUISHED MEDAL
Obama Literally Gives HIMSELF a Department of Defense Medal. Apparently, Nobody Else Worthy
President Obama loves to pat himself on the back, but he’s going to pull his shoulder out with this one
Obama awarded himself the Department of Defense Medal for “Distinguished Public Service.” It seems that the only person who thinks Obama did a good job is Obama himself, via Breitbart.
His defense secretary, Ash Carter, was the one to actually pin the award on Obama, but we know it came from Obama himself.
The outgoing president has always liked to toot his own horn, and now this is just the cherry on top. Carter tried to defend the motion like the good little whipping boy he is by saying it was a token of appreciation for Obama’s stint as the commander-in-chief.
The only appreciation I feel right now, and I’m sure many other Americans feel it too, is that U.S. presidents only serve two terms. This is something George Washington personally decided on, but the informal rule was formalized after Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected for a fourth term (via US Politics About News).
I don’t care how great a president you are—to award yourself a medal is pretty tacky, but it’s especially infuriating that Obama is being awarded this medal because he was one of the worst presidents ever.
