the instant devaluation of an honor

George Tenet, Tommy Franks, and Paul Bremer receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom. As a result, all previous honorees were thrown into confusion as they suddenly wondered if their so-called honor, was in fact, a national practical joke.

Seriously, George Tenet? The guy in charge of the CIA when the CIA uncovered all sorts of evidence for the existence of "Weapons of Mass Destruction" that didn't exist? Tommy Franks? The general that dangerously underestimated the number of soldiers necessary to invade Iraq, the effect of which is the bloody mess that (should be) making headlines in the media?

The internet acronym WTF is not enough for this. I need to spell it out...in capitals...WHAT THE FUCK???
