I hear Buffett can also save you 15% on your auto insurance.
I did not pay close attention, but as far as I can tell, it was a leftie sellabration (no typo).
Warren Buffett? Yawn!
Did Ø award himself one of those medals?
That piece of crap medal means nothing now, maybe it did at one point since its inception but now its 2 million points lower than the useless Nobel Piece of Prize after they were politicized versus awarded on merit, and accomplishments versus good ole boy celebrity status....(Did I say Boy ?)
I get two resumes on my desk, one says military service and scouting. The other is for this Medal of Freedumb and the Nobel Piece of Prize...guess whose resume gets tossed into the round file ?
Gonna take this nation decades, if ever, to recover from the damage these idiots have burdened us with.......doom on em all !
< /RANT>
I guess you're right,Stan Musial was awarded and he was a left-handed hitter!
Also Bill Russell, another “leftie”
I read in the Austin Unamerican Statesman that he also gave one to President Bush(41).
Crazy leftists now making the medial of freedom as worthless as the Nobel Peace Prize.
I would think sworn enemies of the state and those who seek to co-opt it would not be too high on the list..
Athletes,artists, musicians, even dancers and poets, fine. but geesh..
Even a founder of the Sierra Club says global varming is just so much hot hooey! but there is the NRDC and a stalwart of the union thug scene for years.. enough to make ya barf.
Waiting him to award it to Bill Ayers, Francis Fox Pivin, Bernadette Dohrn & George Soros!
Clearly Obama likes this environmental activist organization.
Buffet is Evil even though he comes across as a nice old grandpa.
OK, the others were bad enough, but Maya Angelou? Good heavens, how much more insanity must we endure?
I could not agree more.
“Waiting him to award it to Bill Ayers, Francis Fox Pivin, Bernadette Dohrn & George Soros!”
Nah, they couldn’t hit a curveball or block a shot like Stan the Man or Bill Russell.
