Brian Williams resigns from board of Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation

Disgraced NBC News anchor Brian Williams has resigned from the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation’s board of directors.

In a statement announcing the resignation Thursday, foundation president Ron Rand did not elaborate on Williams’ reason for the decision.

Williams, 55, has been on the foundation’s board since 2006. The organization supports the Congressional Medal of Honor Society, which presents the country’s highest military award for acts of valor above and beyond the call of duty.

NBC brass suspended Williams last week for six months without pay after he was caught lying about being on a military helicopter that was hit by a rocket propelled grenade during the Iraq War in 2003.

“I despise liars especially the ones that want people to think they are so brave..”

Guys like Williams actually know that they are in reality “weak sisters,” so they act to “inflate their resumes.” RAT politicians do it too ( Kerry, Blumenthal, etc.) The truth is that they are all really cowards who would run from a firefight just as soon as the first round is fired!

I think it’s a shame when the guy who shot down the Red Baron during the Battle of Hastings can’t sit on the board of the Medal of Honor.

Will this mean he has to give back the CMH he received for his valor at Bunker Hill?
