Tony Blair to get the Congressional Medal of Honour
 

According to what I read today in the Daily Mail George Dubya has awarded the MOH to Tony Blair for his support against the war in Iraq.

Oh give me a break. . .awards and medals would be fine, but the Medal of Honor?! cmon now. . .

yea right, while were at it. lets award george bush the victoria cross happy:

Medal of honor? Sorry but if he's getting it this way maybe this one should be called the "suck up" award. oOo:

it's a damn joke, never ever ever ever did we give a politician a medal of honor for sitting on his ass and blabbing about war, they're for exceptional bravery ON THE BATTLEFIELD

It is not required to be a U.S. citizen, but you must be in the U.S. military in order to qualify for the Medal of Honor

Didn't those SAS/SBS guys get the MOH in Afghanistan? When that CIA agent got killed.

what medal did the US give to the 2 canadain snipers in afganastan

I also read that Winston Churchill got the MOH, but that newspaper is usually full of sh&t and you could prolly find all of Winston's medals listed on the net.

Congresswoman Ginny Brown-Waite (FL) has introduced legislation to award British Prime Minister Tony Blair the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest civilian honor that can be awarded by the United States Congress.

The article is a couple of months old, but the passage above is relevant to the conversation.

i thought only combat veterans could get the moh. oOo:

Oh im sure the pair of them will be getting and OBE from the queen. she's been handing them out like candy lately.

The GOLD Medal?

Haha....Yeah.

I'd rather an Olympic Gold Medal.......Actually, a mere Commonwealth Games Gold Medal would feel more respectful. hake:

I guess were gonna have a MOH sequel named after Tony Blair oOo:

MOH: Total Twat.

if Tony Blair gets the CMOH then i should get a purple heart for getting to level 21 on pacman.

this is bullshit. PLus they arent giving it too him yet. its says they have introduced legislation. meaning they are TRYING to give it too him...MOH: The Blair office. "Throw staples at the french, spit on the germans, because you are PM Blair and they have done nothing to help in afghanistan."

Reading comprehension is weak in this group.

No one is trying to get Blair the congressional medal of honor. They want to give him the congressional GOLD medal, which is a civilian award.

LOL, that's just what I was about to say biggrin:

hewked on fonix wurkd fer them

Nevermind, The Queen will be issuing MBEs to anyone who does something well.
