Fort Bragg, NC – The White House Press Office announced today that President Obama will soon be inducted into the Special Forces Association and receive an honorary Green Beret.

Officials have said the honor will be bestowed in an upcoming September 11th ceremony at Fort Bragg.

The honorary beret comes in recognition of the President’s decisive role in covert operations throughout the world during his term — including the killing of Osama bin Laden last year in Pakistan, and his combat action in Afghanistan months ago.

Personally, I feel it’s long overdue on account of his service in Vietnam.

Re: President Obama To Receive Honorary Green Beret, Induction Into Special Forces Association

I don't have a problem with that... and neither does my wife Monica nor friends Ross, Phoebe or Joey but Rachel in France does object to anything military--

Well, if my hemorrhoids hadn't have acted up... I would have won at Waterloo and then Rachel wouldn't have be a pacifist!

Now that he’s taken care of the important business do you think he could get us some of those hot North Korean traffic cops. It would make getting a ticket fun. He must be tight with the other Fearless Leaders of the world.

Whew!!

Satire. OK. But ya' gotta' admit: I wouldn't put it past the nut in the White Hut to get one of his minions to have this done for real. I mean, it is the silly season! And just wait for October. Oh man, it'll be rough. The Dems and their propaganda arm ("news" media) will go nuts shilling for Zero (I can't wait to see Chrissy Matthews head explode on national TV on election night when Romney is announced the winner).

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to award him a Yellow Beret?

We can be reasonably sure a President Romney won't be caught disgracing us with this behavior....

The problem isn't with people that don't read before commenting, it's the ones that do read and still don't get it.

Being given an honorary “Lavender Beret” by the Butt Boy Brigade “just because they think he's so damn cute”, now that's believable.

“Will he review a contingent of the Black Panther Honor Guard B4 or after the ceremony?”

Correct; people didn't read the article. He is actually receiving the honorary beret from the Panthers; not the Green Berets.
Rev Wright is mc’ing the event.
