WAR IS PEACE,
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY,
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH, and
PROPAGANDA IS FREEDOM

Puke. As if the Men-Seeking-Men media wasn’t a lapdog of Obola’s already, it will take a shopvac the size of the Superdome to suck up the slobber this will generate.

The two fiends have corruptly stolen freedom from America
by systematically LYING to the PUBLIC and substituting
weather for NEWS, as they have re-introduced slavery,
racism, terrorism, rape, and beheadings from
Coast to Coast and overseas.

The award should be a bronze statue of Brokaw’s lips on Soetoro’s ass.

A medal from the Ministry of Propaganda. Chris Mathews is due for a roomfull of these when he finally retires.
Brokaw may end up like Stevie Wonder is today; getting awards on top of other meaningless awards for what he symbolized decades ago. It’s like giving an annual award to both Aunt Jemima and Betty Crocker year after year.

He should give that to every person at NBC, ABC and CBS. Then over at CNN and MSNBC. That is what this is worth.

And NY mayor deblasio “the big dope” has called the so called dr who came back to NY with ebola traveled, walked ate and bowled in NY before coming down with ebola, an “American Hero” The stupidity of the commie liberal “a” holes is beyond comprehension. GMA (good morning America)’s Robin whatever called a gay basketball player who came out of the closet as courages a hero and a role model for everyone. These are sick minds

I’m sure that Goebbels had a chest full of awards and medals too.

Maybe Brokow can be 0bama’s hagiographer too.

what a surprise:

The guy given worthless prizes gives out worthless prizes.

(It turned out the Nobel Committee made their decision to award Obola the Nobel Prize after he had spent EIGHT DAYS of his first term)

EIGHT DAYS.
