        Great ceremony. Too bad there was an illegitimate @POTUS in the room.

        While Air Force Technical Sergeant John Chapman deserves thanks, praise and recognition for his selfless act of heroics. It's a shame that a cowardly president is a part of the ceremony when he thinks people are only heros when they avoid being captured.

        Draft Dodger awards war hero the Congressional Medal of Honor. His family must be proud and nauseous at the same time.

        Did he say that had it been he and not Sgt. Chapman, he would not only have kept fighting, but would never have been knocked unconscious or killed because he's not a loser?

        Bruce/Dave/Lee etc he didn't award it. Congress does. All he did was hand it to her and pay attention, she used it to block his face from some of the photos.

        Well they should have had someone who has actually been to war or at least has some measure of integrity to hand him the medal

        I agree. Just reminding people DJT doesn't nominate the recipients, doesn't make the decisions as to who qualifies he just hands it out. DJT acts like it was up to him, it wasn't.
