The commies are coming out of the woodwork led by their orator now.
"President Obama awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Tuesday to Dolores Huerta, an 82-year-old labor activist and co-founder of the United Farm Workers union.
Huerta is also an honorary chair of the Democratic Socialists of America.
DSA describes itself as “the largest socialist organization in the United States, and the principal U.S. affiliate of the Socialist International.”
Huerta has claimed, “Republicans hate Latinos,” and has spoken fondly of Hugo Chavez’s despotic regime in Venezuela. "

Yeah, he's largely done the same things that the guy before him did, you know the one you didn't complain about at all.
Can you guys try putting away the emotion at some point and post like mature adults.
The woman did a lot of social activism in her time and was recognized by a lot of non-political organizations for her work. Somehow I doubt any of you bothered to read about her since you typically just do baseless whining about anything associated with Obama.
Such commie institutions as Ms. Magazine, Ladies Home Journal, Princeton and UCLA. I'm not sure what you all are crying about here.

Why all the fuss?
The U.S.S.A. has been socialist since 1935, and not under the Constitution since 1933 (due to the perpetual "temporary" State of emergency).
Senate Report 93-549
War and Emergency Powers Acts
"A majority of the people of the United States have lived all of their lives under emergency rule. For 40 years (as of the report 1933-1973), freedoms and governmental procedures guaranteed by the Constitution have, in varying degrees, been abridged by laws brought into force by states of national emergency."
The guy doesn't hide that he is a socialist, surrounded by socialists and worships other socialists. And don't forget she worships all those other socialists that murdered all their own people.

She may have earned and been awarded any number of honors before. This one was for FREEDOM, the highest citizen's award given in AMERICA. Your post is irrelevant.

Pete Rose can't be in BB hall of fame because of his transgressions but being a commie is more forgivable than a gambling infraction.
The eastern europe derived US citizens are going blind with rage as this president spits in their faces to demean their fight against communist invaders and murderers.
