Give Hillary a Medal
WANTED: CREATIVE THINKING
You are all no doubt familiar with Hillary Clinton's discredited claim that she embarked at the Tuzla Air Base under sniper fire and had to run for it. I believe this points out the need for a medal for public persons who claim to have been in danger, and weren't. But we need a name for this decoration.
An example: Some months ago there was a contest to name the Clinton's house in Chappaqua. The winner was, I believe, "Disgraceland." Now we need you all to kick the dung heaps of your minds and see what slithers out. I will pick a winner, if there is one, and accord him great glory on this very blog.
I know this is my second time around but this is too much fun. Dave, you need to post some rules. There should be no entries from Florida or Michigan. (Sorry Yupper Jack.) Entries from Illinois should include an unmarked envelope stuffed with cash. Endorsements from ministers must be by video only. Now get those underemployed Ivy League Art History majors in your art department on my design.

How about the, "Honesty never counted before" award.
Or from Monty Python years ago = the "Twit of the Year" award.

The Army has among others the CIB (Combat Infantryman's Badge)
VSN (Vietnam service medal
PH (Purple Heart)
GRB (Gold Recruiter's Badge)
and the EIB (Expert Infantryman) The above are some examples of my own class a uniform "fruit salad".
The one nobody wants is the CMH (Casket with Metal handles) Not to be confused with the Cong. Medal of Honor.
Sen. Hillary should get the CMD (Congressional Metal of Deceit) This is for deceit above and beyond the call of duty.
After all she is in Congress and she is a great liar.

As far as the medal goes, it should be called the "Selective Reality" award. This award goes to people who see reality in their own "special" way.

for multiple (repeated) awards--
these are available mostly in Washington DC.
