PATHETIC! Obama Awards Biden “Medal of Freedom”
Wow, this is just pathetic. After essentially giving a prestigious public service medal to himself, Obama is doubling down on trying to feel better over his legacy being shattered by Trump’s win by also giving Joe Biden a medal as well.
Is this kindergarten? Leadership is about real world accomplishments, not putting gold sticker stars on your buddy’s forehead. With many failures and few achievements during this 8 years in office, Obama is resorting to hollow ceremonial gestures and it is laughable.

President Obama awarded the nation’s highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, to a shocked Vice President Biden on Thursday at the White House.
Biden and the president had gathered for what the White House had described as a final tribute to the vice president.
“For the final time as president I am pleased to award our nation’s highest civilian honor…” Obama began as a Marine officer bearing the medal stood by.Biden immediately spun around and wiped his face and eyes with his handkerchief. The president added that he was bestowing the medal “with distinction,” an additional level of veneration that his predecessors had reserved for only three other recipients — Pople John Paul II, former President Ronald Reagan and Gen. Colin Powell.
“I had no inkling,” Biden said after the medal was draped around his neck. “I thought we were going …to toast one another and say what an incredible journey it has been.”
In his remarks, Biden praised Obama for serving the nation with dignity and insisted that he was not worthy of the honor.
“I don’t deserve this but I know it came from the president’s heart,” Biden said.

7 years and 51 weeks, Obama actually does something for the country. He ended Bill Clinton’s Cuban “wet-foot dry-foot” policy. If you can round up those illegal Cubans on the beach, they go back home as well now.
