Obama has given so many of those out to campaign donors and his rich Hollywood friends, that they are now meaningless

Just like the Nobel Peace Prize

quote:

And – and for – for the first – for the first and only time in my presidency, I will bestow this medal with an additional level of veneration, an honor my three most recent successors reserved for only three others; Pope John Paul II, President Ronald Regan, and General Colin Powell. Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to award the presidential Medal of Freedom with distinction to my brother, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. Will the aid please read the citation?
