What is wrong with this guy?
President Obama got his Medal of Honor recipients mixed up today, accidentally referring to a posthumous recipient as alive.
…..“First time I saw 10th Mountain Division, you guys were in southern Iraq. When I went back to visit Afghanistan, you guys were the first ones there. I had the great honor of seeing some of you because a comrade of yours, Jared Monti, was the first person who I was able to award the Medal of Honor to who actually came back and wasn’t receiving it posthumously.”Jared Monti was killed in Afghanistan on June 21, 2006. He was awarded the Medal of Honor posthumously, September 17, 2009.

And they keep saying that he is the smartest man in the room. His people that load the teleprompter don’t even bother to check but does he notice? Nope, just keeps on reading as if it doesn’t matter anyway.
