I think you need to read the Constitution. I don’t remember it saying anything about giving or revoking medals.

“And I think this country, or any civilized country, should have no tolerance for rape.”

Well that rules out muslim countries.

I wonder what Bill Clinton’s thoughts are on this?

It doesn’t of course. They’d have to figure that one out, heh. A quandary.

We should not tolerate any @$$ in the White House using the Constitution as toilet paper.

Ask EVERY Democrat:

If Obama KNEW then what he KNOWS now, would he have glorified Bill Cosby with the Presidential Freedom Medal and should he ask for it back now?

I thought Bush gave Cosby that medal, not Obama.

Bush was the one who awarded the medal to Cosby, but if one of his medals could be revoked it would set a precedent for others to be revoked regardless of who awarded it, and Obama has awarded it to people who are less deserving than those selected by most presidents.
