If George Tenet get a Medal of Freedom I would like to nominate

[rurallib]

a few people who TRULY deserve Medals of Freedom for practicing the most important of freedoms: freedom of speech and freedom of the press against the current administration:

Skinner of DU
Markos Moulitsis
Jane Hamsher et al from FDL
Joshua Micah Marshall
Jerome Armstrong
Amy Goodman
Bill Moyers
Keith Olbermann
Bradblog
Mike Malloy
And many others (feel free to nominate)

These folks led the fight against those in power to seek and disseminate the truth. This is what freedom is all about and I salute you all ladies and gentlemen alike. Thank you from a starving nation.

4. Thank you Keith Olbermann, Skinner, Bill Moyers, Mike Malloy

I'm not familiar with the others in the OP, but yes, THANK YOU for having the guts to demand the truth.

As Bill Moyers stated on NPR's "Fresh Air" last week, when MSM airs two opinions and then splits the difference, we don't get the truth. We just get another opinion.

Unless we demand the truth, we'll just get different shades of Faux News.

PS: If Tenet had problems with what the White House was saying, he should have spoken out forcefully BACK THEN. It's not about salvaging his #)&*ing reputation, it's about hundreds of thousands of lives! He should have gone to the Medal of Freedom ceremony, stood up and refused to accept it!
