As one blogger stated it "The only qualifier for that
garbage [Rush Limbaugh] to get the medal of freedom is because in America he has had the
freedom to be the absolute worst that humanity has to offer. Hopefully
the next Dem retires this medal forever as being tainted & launches a
Presidential Medal of Integrity instead."
My Comment: The
blogger's suggestion is spot on. In this moment what Trump supporter
should receive
that honor? No one. There is not one shred of character, integrity or
empathy in the entire lot of the supporters of Donald Trump except one. I
would give it to Mitt Romney for
the immense courage it took for a member of the Trumpian Republican
Party to hold this lawbreaker president's feet to
the fire convicting Trump on at least one impeachment count. Giving
this Medal of Freedom to Rush Limbaugh is like giving
it to Joseph Goebels, the head of the Nazi Ministry of Propaganda.
This act by Trump bestowing the highest civilian honor to the sultan of
hate, Limbaugh, is the highest insult to all good men and women of
principle and character everywhere and to those persons of artistic and
cultural humanitarian excellence who have received it before! See list
of former recipients below.

misogynistic greatest hits of the most undeserving of the honor of
bestowal of the Medal of Freedom in this nation's history.

“I mean, let’s face it, we
didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a
bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying
we should bring it back; I’m just saying it had its merits. For one
thing, the streets were safer after dark.”
“You
know who deserves a posthumous Medal of Honor? James Earl Ray [the
confessed assassin of Martin Luther King]. We miss you, James.
Godspeed.”

way: the NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the
Crips without any weapons. There, I said it.”

want you to post the videos online so we can all watch.”
