First the back story: Vietnam Helicopter Pilot Capt. Larry Taylor Awarded Medal of Honor for Daring Night-Time Rescue (yahoo.com)
How can anyone watch that and not feel compassion and admiration for Capt. Taylor, while Joe Biden treated the entire ceremony as just another game show?
Monica Showalter - American Thinker "Is there anyone less fit to be around men of authentic valor than cowardly, self-dealing Joe Biden?
"Breaking all protocol as well as common decency, he wandered off the set during a Medal of Honor ceremony, leaving the honoree, Capt. Larry L. Taylor, awkwardly on the podium alone.
"Here's what he did:"

COVID-exposed Biden goes maskless in front of hero – HotAir . . ."So was this an example of Joe Biden simply flaunting the rules that his own White House has established? Or did he just lose the plot (again) and forget about the masking guidelines in the middle of the ceremony? Personally, I’m leaning toward the latter explanation because of what happened next. Once the reading of Captain Taylor’s exploits was complete and the medal had been presented, it was time for the recitation of the prayer. But Biden simply wandered away and walked out of Taylor’s ceremony before it was complete.
Military veterans slammed Biden afterward, arguing that the commander-in-chief showed a startling lack of respect.
“Pardon my French…But what a f—ing idiot. The continuous lack of respect Biden has for anyone is appalling. Hawaii, Service members, active shooter victims, the list goes on,” former Navy SEAL and podcast host Shawn Ryan tweeted after the president’s hasty exit.
“At least he didn’t check his watch this time,” Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-Texas), an Army veteran, snarked on X, formerly known as Twitter. . . .
