Army Capt. William Swenson certainly deserves the Medal of Honor, but I do not believe that I could accept it from Obama. I ‘think’ I would show up, hand it back to Obama, spit in his general direction, turn my back to him, then walk away.

No Conservative, and no real American does not believe that Capt. Swenson deserves the Medal of Honor.

However, there are far too few who would have the bravery and fortitude to not accept the Medal of Honor from this president.

It is the bravery of Capt. Swenson and those who would stand up to Obama in such a public forum, by refusing the Medal of Honor, that keeps me from losing faith in our country.

Better yet, accept the medal on behalf of all veterans, make a statement about their conditions, and thank the military for the award, and say NOTHING about Zero whatsoever.

I thought about that, but then realized that one would be accepting the medal from the American people and from a figurehead, not from a Muslim commie gay. Putting on a display of outrage would insult the medal and one's dead comrades, and would roll off Obama's back.
