JEB BUSH TO AWARD HILLARY 'LIBERTY MEDAL' ON EVE OF BENGHAZI ANNIVERSARY


Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) will honor former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with this year’s Liberty Medal from the National Constitution Center. The award will be presented to Clinton on September 10th, the eve of the first anniversary of the terrorist attack on the United States mission in Benghazi that killed four Americans.
The Christian Science Monitor reports that Bush, a potential GOP contender in the 2016 presidential race, is chairman of the board of trustees of the National Constitution Center located in Philadelphia.
“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” Bush said in a statement. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.”
Bush’s decision to honor Clinton, who is considered by some to be a likely Democrat candidate for president in 2016, was condemned by the Independence Hall Tea Party Association of Philadelphia. According to the Christian Science Monitor, the organization released its own statement Monday, referring to the event as “extremely distressing,” and offering, instead, an opportunity for another Liberty Medal recipient.

Is he Liberty Medal like a hunting badge now? Whoever removes as much liberty from the environment as possible gets honored?

[Carlybee]

That should be protested

[erowe1]

The fake rivalry between the Ds and Rs is worse than professional wrestling.

[dannno]

That should be protested

It's funny because if you read the article there is a Tea Party org that is protesting it and created a new organization and are holding their own Liberty Medal ceremony and condemning the Clinton award. It really makes the elite sound out of touch.

[mad cow]

I was struck speechless by the article.It seems his father and her husband are previous winners.

I love how they're always giving themselves awards. :rolleyes:

Well they have to do something to convince everybody of what a great job they're doing..

[brushfire]

Hmm... Should certainly eclipse the Benghazi news... Dogs awarding cats? Cats awarding dogs?

Media facilitated, sleight of hand.

[Kords21]

Is this a headline from an alternate universe? Wow, just wow. It's about as meaningful as Obama's peace prize

OK, must have been a "Constitution Defender" award or some crap that Cheney or Rummy got, because I remember it being a big deal last CPAC or the one before. So must have been a different award in the same vein.

Donald Rumsfeld was awarded the “Defender of the Constitution” award at CPAC 2011 — by Dick Cheney, no less. At Campaign for Liberty’s Liberty Forum at CPAC, I had the privilege of presenting an award to the real defender of the Constitution.

DONALD RUMSFELD AT CPAC: DEFENDER OF THE CONSTITUTION
By: John Hayward 2/11/2011 11:04 AM

Former Vice President Dick Cheney was on hand to present the Defender of the Constitution Award to Donald Rumsfeld, the “Secretary of Everything,” as Rush Limbaugh memorably dubbed him during an interview.

[twomp]

Shouldn't someone from Al Qaeda or one of the Syrian Rebels or Libyan Rebels be the ones to present her with this medal?

What a LOAD of BULLSHIT and Insult to Liberty and the US Constitution. Looks more of a parody of Heirick Himmler giving out Freedoms Awards to; Hitler, Goering, Goebbels, Mussalini, and Stalin. Those recipients should be in Prison.

[Theocrat]

Awarding Hillary Clinton with the "Liberty Medal" is like giving Ben Bernanke the Fields Medal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fields_Medal).

[Dianne]

Peoples... once you realize these people like Jeb, Hillary, Bill, Obama, Bush are so damn fucked up in the heads on drugs and mind control ... they really don't know they make decisions at the rate of a three year old who pooped his pants.

They are not from the real world ... They are Jimmy Hendrix times 150 stoned all the time .. They rely on the Saudi Arabia or Bank of America to tell them what to say... Coke runs free and clear through the White House... and fringe benefits for their family members.

Until Americans realize, their government is comprised of what they refer to as "criminals" ... we will never kick the bastards out... And that's what they are ... bastards.

[HOLLYWOOD]

Hillary's History... besides recent arming of terrorists and overthrowing nations/governments for corporations and the elites.

Somehow, I'm not surprised.

This is just doublethink, plain and simple. Liberty is Statism, War is Peace, Statists Are Good, etc.

[JoshLowry]

I'm thinking we should cast a tyranny medal and award it annually.

Call it the National Dictator Center.
