WHAT! He was just some dumb actor that never did much for the country. /s
Id rather wait for a Better President to award it
Wait until President Cruz takes office and then the award would mean something.
The Obama administration does nothing unless it benefits the Won’s image. It's all about optics.
When he comes out as gay.
He was awarded the MOH. You cannot do much better than that. This government will not honor a “war hero” beyond what is absolutely necessary to keep the JCS happy.
Wait until we have an American in the WH. All BO would do is mock Audie, give him the finger or something. My Father is buried at Arl. Nat’l. His marker says “WWII, Korea, Vietnam”. I know he would rather not have the Kenyan visit if given the choice.
Why wasn't that duty clear to Presidents Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Eisenhower, or Truman?
White Southern male... Obama is more likely to hold Audie Murphy up as an example of what was wrong with America.
Obama has no place for real heroes. He has reserved that place for the “heroes” that proudly march in gay pride parades, burn, loot and vandalize their neighborhoods and trample on the flag.
And don't forget Obola giving it to Tom Brokaw for not doing his job, and keeping America in the dark on Obola's past, lack of experience, etc.
Murphy's image is far better remembered for not getting it at this point in time, especially from the likes of Obola.
YOU took the words out of my mouth. May Murphy rest in peace, until someone worthier lays their hand on his well deserved Medal of Honor.
And, sometimes these columnists over reach for stirring the Obama pot, and we get rage baited. This might qualify as one of those columns. We already have a plate full of huge stuff against Obama.
Some of the people named on that petition have been dead for years. I agree that after all of this time that it s better to wait for an honorable president.
He was the most decorated soldier in WWII. Why would he need any acknowledgement from the traitor or his staff in Washington?
Best bet is to wait for a REAL President, OBoffo would not consider Murphy worthy... after all he was a young White Man, and not... “If I had a son he would look like Trayvon.”
Leave it to Barry to support a teen thug and not a true American War hero.
Not to sound Racist, but it all starts at the top.
From Article:
When one of the artillery crew asked how close the enemy were to his position, Murphy is said to have responded, Hang on the line and Ill let you talk to one of the bastards.
LOL!!!
The VA Hospital in San Antonio is Named after Lt. Murphy. They have a display in the foyer with the .22 Rifle (IIRC a Remington) He hunted with as a youngster.
This will be one of the first acts by fellow Texan, President Cruz. No need to rush it, since getting a medal from an America hating traitor like Obama would be a shame.
