Despicable. I’ll bet Kerry gets one too. He can throw it over the fence again to protest DJT.

He, Obama, is showing what a pathetic shallow person he is. I wonder if PEOTUS can strip him of this pitiful display of narcissism?

He can wear it right next to the Nobel Peace Prize medal he “earned” after two weeks in office.

LOL. I wonder if Obama will be taking the black velvet pictures that he received as gifts from all his supporters or leaving them as historic mementos as he serpentines his way out of the WH.

That photo is priceless.

Mr. Obama appears not to realize that the recipient of an award is inferior to the giver of it.

By accepting the award he positions himself beneath the Secretary of Defense. And in awarding it, the Secretary of Defense positions himself as a sycophant.

I know it seems like an ego trip but George W also accepted that award.

That image is just plain wrong. But it was pretty funny!

[Fightin Whitey]

Exactly what I thought lol.

[SandRat]

Only moments after the inauguration and wearing the phony medal, he qualifies for, and gets the middle finger salute.

Reminds me of Idi Amin.
