Yes, that's what I said: "Bush Receives "International Medal of PEACE" for His Tireless Efforts & Unprecedented Contribution in the Fight Against AIDS."
What? It's true, I tell you.
I knew something like this was bound to happen for the man whose AIDS policies have only made the problem worse: "President George W. Bush will be presented with the "International Medal of PEACE" by Dr. Rick Warren on behalf of the Global PEACE Coalition during the Saddleback Civil Forum on Global Health, to be held at the Newseum in Washington, on the 20th anniversary of World AIDS Day, Dec. 1. This award is in recognition of the President's tireless efforts and unprecedented contribution to the fight against HIV/AIDS and other diseases." Happy World AIDS day.
And no, as Pam Spaulding says, the news doesn't come from The Onion, but from Christian Newswire (which, to be fair, is often even funnier). Though not this time. No, not this time.
I guess it's further proof that the losers in a fight never get to write the history books.
