… it is pretty questionable on why President Obama would give him the medal of honor during a government shutdown. Swenson SHOULD HAVE been given this honor long ago. The paperwork for this was lost which is how it caused the delay and reasons were unknown.
I saw the Sept. 8 2009 Cpt. Swenson video in youtube and it’s interesting stuff indeed. Swenson deserved this honor but why now?
Oh, I get why. It’s the government shutdown… something negative going on in politics but sure enough, Obama’s gonna pull something positive so America can get their minds off the negative. Obama does this shit all the time. Whenever negative stuff goes on in government… Obama will do something positive to get our minds off of things. Obama is that controlling of America. He has this power over the media. What Obama wants is what he gets and I absolutely blame him for the delay of this Medal of Honor.
You see, Obama has this huge ego problem; he would do just about anything to make him look good and this is his opportunity. He’s trying his best to redeem himself — sorry Barack O’ while this is a good thing you did this is a huge stab in the back of all the other people who died who served this country.
How come Navy Seal Chris Kyle wasn’t awarded medal of honor? How come Ambassador Stevens wasn’t honored? What about Brian Terry? Don’t know who those names are… look them up.
No matter what he does positively… I’ll never respect this asshole. Ever.

I realize that Chris Kyle is the only one eligible for Medal of Honor but Stevens and Terry should still get some kind of honor by the President but they all get ignored. Just wanted to make some clarifications.
