Bergdahl Awarded Medal of Honor
Jun 30, 2014 05:17:28 #
President Barack Hussein Obama, in a White House ceremony, awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor to Sgt. (Pvt?) Bowe Bergdahl. The Medal of Honor is this Nations highest military award, and it is bestowed in recognition of Valor Above and Beyond the Call of Duty.
When reporters pointed out to President Obama that Bergdahl appears to have been a deserter, which would make it seem inappropriate to award him our highest military honor, Obama responded by saying Bergdahls desertion was exactly the point behind his decision.
After all the President said, desertion in time of war carries the death penalty, so for Bergdahl to have deserted anyway certainly demonstrates the kind of Valor Above and Beyond the Call of Duty that is the basis for awarding the Medal.
Obama also commented that he hoped to award some type of medal to Bergdahls mother, but only if he could pin it on her chest himself.
The story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious

The purpose of satire is to make a point by starting with a statement that on its surface seems almost feasible and extending it to a conclusion that points out the absurdity of the starting premise. This one does an excellent job of that. It wouldn't have seemed at all feasible if it weren't for the persons involved.
Good post.

Sorry, I just noticed this. I have been retired for almost six years, but suffice it to say, the Wall Street of today is not the Wall Street I remember from my earliest years there. A new element has wormed its way in and changed it into the object of derision that it is today.

And you were elected when and by whom? I think we both have the same credentials, in this situation.
