Jeb Bush to Award Hillary Clinton Liberty Medal
 

I'm sure one of the lib talking heads covering this event will slip up and call her 'Madame President'.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) will honor former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with this year’s Liberty Medal from the National Constitution Center. The award will be presented to Clinton on September 10th, the eve of the first anniversary of the terrorist attack on the United States mission in Benghazi that killed four Americans.

The Christian Science Monitor reports that Bush, a potential GOP contender in the 2016 presidential race, is chairman of the board of trustees of the National Constitution Center located in Philadelphia.

“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” Bush said in a statement. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.”

Bush’s decision to honor Clinton, who is considered by some to be a likely Democrat candidate for president in 2016, was condemned by the Independence Hall Tea Party Association of Philadelphia. According to the Christian Science Monitor, the organization released its own statement Monday, referring to the event as “extremely distressing,” and offering, instead, an opportunity for another Liberty Medal recipient.

According to the statement:


As all of you undoubtedly know, much of the blame for the Obama Administration's failure to contain the Benghazi attack and the scandalous handling of its aftermath, can be traced directly to Ms. Clinton.

Indeed, a Congressional investigation regarding Ms. Clinton's role in the cover-up of the Administration's failure is still ongoing.

A newly formed organization, the Independence Hall Foundation, will hold a "What Difference Does It Make" press conference on Independence Mall, September 10, 4 PM, to denounce the selection of Ms. Clinton as the 2013 Liberty Medal recipient and to offer an alternative award (details below).

During the conference, the Foundation will name its choice of recipient(s) for the 2013 Defender of Liberty Medal.

Dom Giordano will headline the presser and we certainly hope you will consider joining us.

A 5 PM Prayer Vigil for the victims of the Benghazi attack will immediately follow the press conference.

The National Constitution Center's announcement, dated June 27th, about the award of the Liberty Medal to Clinton, states:


As Secretary of State, Clinton advocated for “smart power” in foreign policy, elevating diplomacy and development and repositioning them for the 21st century – with new tools, technologies, and partners, including the private sector and civil society around the world.

National Constitution Center president and CEO Jeffrey Rosen said, “Hillary Clinton has devoted her life to expanding opportunities for ‘We the People’ not just in this country but around the globe.”

Upon the announcement of Clinton’s award in June, Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft wrote, “Really Jeb, no one else came to mind?"

Snip

Jed just throw away any chance he had to run for POTUS??

:munchin

I hope he pins it on with an 8" wooden stake.....

I LIKE that!

Repugnant, but not surprising... It's beginning to look more and more like we no longer have a two-party [system of] government in anything other than name.

If he pinned anything on that swamp-donkey, it should have been with a railroad spike in the forehead.

This is America, we now award families of IMPEACHED presidents medals.

And why should the wife, liar and loser of an IMPEACHEED president become president? :munchin

Must be something to be married to the second president ever, in the history of the United States to be IMPEACHED.

I'll be voting for her just so Slick Willie can have another go at an intern in the White House. :D

Guess good ol Jeb figured this was his in....to a VP slot!

Jeb doesn't seem to understand that Hillary is "disinterested" in men. :eek:

If she becomes the next POTUS, I will need someone from this board to come to my house, and put a bullet square in the base of my brain stem.

I cannot, and will not, live in a world run by that... woman.

Seem to remember a big deal being made about how Reagan would be too old to handle the rigors of the presidency back in 1980.
How old will hillary be in the next presidential election?
:munchin

She will 69 on the Inauguration Day. that is probably at least 12 cycles of Botox away.:munchin

69 and becoming the next resident of the Oral Office.... Somehow that's sorta poetic. :D

Thinking the same thing as I typed...:o
