Jeb praises Hillary at Liberty Medal award ceremonies.

Posted: Sep 10, 2013

“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” said Bush. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.” National Constitution Center reports she was chosen for her " in recognition of her lifelong career in public service and her ongoing advocacy efforts on behalf of women and girls around the globe," having lead by example as First Lady, Senator, presidential candidate and Secretary of State.

The Clintons now have matching his and her Liberty Medals. BC shared his honor with HW Bush in 2006 for their relief tnad recovery efforts in the aftermath of the tsunami in SE Asia.

I once painstakingly coaxed a 3-4-year-old feral cat to give up his tomcat ways and become part of my domesticated feline tribe. He turned out to be the sweetest alpha kitty ever, but there was one vestige of his feral days that never disappeared. Whenever his prominent cheeks got stroked and petted he had the inappropriate response of growling when it was obvious he really wanted to purr. He'd beg for more, but the more he got, the louder he growled.

Cognitive dissonance.

I know what it means. How does it relate to what - I wrote

That's what I'm not understanding.

it would be easier to explain if you could tell us - what you mean by "sick"

"In psychology, cognitive dissonance is the discomfort experienced when simultaneously holding two or more conflicting cognitions: ideas, beliefs, values or emotional reactions."

Thus, if you liked Jeb Bush, but you disliked Hillary Clinton, it could present a conflict for you if Jeb Bush commends her.

Bush praising Clinton - it's that simple

We have a republican praising a democrat and a poster who calls it sick. Why? Cognitive dissonance.

Wrong - sm

you have a neocon praising a neocon. Hillary used to be a republican. Bush and Clintons are closely tied. There is no surprise that a Bush would praise a Clinton and vice versa because there is no difference. Clintons and Bush's have always been best buds.

Hillary has never been a conservative, although she has - a lot in common with moderate cons. Her

father, sad to say, was reactionary right, and that adversely affected his relationship with his daughter, as well as created the usual problems extremists have with most of those around them.

Yes she was. She belonged to the republican party - before defecting.

This is only 1 link, so don't criticize it. The information is correct and there are many google pages of results to show that Hillary used to be a conservative.

Instead of congratulating the grads for doing a good job, talk about life after college, and giving a rah-rah speech about what the grads can do, Kerry and Obama turned the ceremonies into political campaign speeches and/or more indoctrination. I think it's disgusting, especially since it's the progressives who have practically destroyed our country. Justice Clarence Thomas gave a fantastic commencement speech. Too bad he won't get much expose for it because he does call ...

The Medal of Distinction is Israel's highest medal of honor. "Peres prefaced his address prior to conferring the medal on Obama, with the word "Bravo!" signifying his approval of the way in which Obama had spoken to Israel's young peopleearlier in the day.The award, he said, "speaks to your tireless work to make Israel strong and to make peace possible. Your presidency has given the closest ties between Israel and the United States a new height, a sense of intimacy, a vision for the f ...

Joe Biden was just awarded the Medal of Freedom with distinction only awarded to 3 other people. He was tearful, and turned his back to hide it, but he couldn't. It was a shock to him. He didn't know it was coming. I always liked "Uncle Joe" except for being so down on coal. He always had a good sense of humor and I always felt he was humble. His speech is showing it. I'm glad he god recognition for his many years. So there he goes, praising his family instead of what he has done ...

By Stephen C. WebsterTuesday, March 9th, 2010 -- 10:38 pm Right-wing radio talker Rush Limbaugh must be confused. During a recent broadcast, he vowed to "go to Costa Rica" if President Obama is successful in passing his health reform legislation. Most assumed he meant the statement in the vein of his promise to leave New York City over its tax rates, which he did. Now Limbaugh is saying he will not leave the U.S., as in, move away. Instead, Limbaugh claims that he will simply "go to Costa Rica ...

n the record praising Donald Trump in two days. These folks are extremely grateful to Trump for saving their jobs and many of them are Democrats! This man’s name is Rick Link.

He hit a chord inside me, he was talking to the working man. He was talking to the middle class. And you know, we’re tire ...

They are advertising their dispenser that keeps germs from getting on your hands when you are washing them by automatically dispensing soap when it is activated by hand motion or whatever device they have implanted in the dispenser. What they are really saying is that their "soap" is not strong enough to kill those germs that are on someone's hands before they wash them. Make this item money waster #1 on your list.&nbs ...

How disgusting and he calls himself a Christian. The crazies are going to end up turning a lot of people against Christianity.

Salvatore Giunta -- a popular right-wing Christian commentator sharply split opinions even within his own camp. He blasted the award as "feminized" because it honors Giunta fo ...

In a response below you stated: "My final and closing argument: All I know is that I am almost 60 years old. I have seen that the Welfare programs which were implemented in the 60s have not done this country any good. More people are on welfare than before so the programs we have aren't working. There is so much fraud and abuse, and these are programs run by the government. The government can't run these programs effectively. You can't just keep pouring money into something th ...

Bernie Sanders entered what his supporters must consider the belly of the beast on Monday. He spoke at the conservative evangelical Liberty University in Virginia. Some of those supporters sat in reserved seats, ensuring his remarks would be received with some applause. Liberal and Democratic speakers at Liberty are not as rare as one might think. In 1983, Sen. Ted Kennedy visited and spoke about religious freedom, standing up for the right of conservative evangelicals to be heard in the pub ...
