The Chautauqua Alliance has bestowed special recognition on President Obama for continuing to spin preposterous stories that have no basis in reality.
By granting Obama the coveted Artemis Diztruther medal, the Alliance recognized the President's daily habit of uttering exaggerated assertions as if they were actual and true.
As Alliance Director Harvey Paul Bunyan stated it: "Mr. Obama displays deep engagement in telling whoppers, clearly in the time-honored tradition of American tall tales. Not since the era of yarns about Davy Crockett, Mike Fink, Casey Jones, Pecos Bill and John Henry have we heard such truth-defying stories as are narrated by the President on a daily basis."
