He can wear it between his Nobel Peace Prize medal and the Croix de Hubris (with Creased Pants Cluster)

"On Wednesday, President Obama added another prestigious medal to his Nobel Prize collection when he had Defense Secretary Ash Carter award him with the Department of Defense Medal for Distinguished Public Service."

Perhaps the "distinguished public service" being honored is Obama finally leaving office?

Waiting for Jan. 20th to arrive is starting to feel like waiting for Christmas day, when I was rinardkid. It took forever to arrive.

I did see a picture of a moving van in front of the White House. That's encouraging.

I wonder how much of what goes into that moving van is actually Obama property and how much is the people's property?

Obama looks like a North Korean general in full uniform.

It's a good thing Ash Carter didn't prick the prick.

If you collect enough medals you can call yourself something like:

"By the Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah, His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, King of Kings of Ethiopia, Elect of God"

A little harsh. Haile Selassie did take the field with his armies against the Italians. Apparently he particularly liked to shoot a 20mm AA gun against the Mussolini boys in their Capronis.

How about His Excellency Supreme General Barack Soetoro Marshall Obama of the Republique du Chiraq?
