316: Adios, MOFO!

Presidential Gaffe Regarding Medal of Honor Recipient

During a speech to the 10th Mountain Division, President Obama incorrectly stated that Sergeant First Class Jared C. Monty was the first living recipient he awarded the Medal of Honor to, when in fact Monty received it posthumously. The error drew criticism from veterans who felt the President was being blasé about military honors. The segment also mocks Obama's description of his time as a presidential candidate as "service."
