Mr. Durbin: Will the Senator yield for a question? Mr. Reid: I will be happy to yield for a question. Mr. Durbin: Can the Senator refresh my memory? Was Mr. Bremmer the recipient of a gold medal or something from the President? Didn't he receive some high decoration or medal for his performance in Iraq? Mr. Reid: The answer is, yes, he received that. I assume one would expect that from somebody who had a throne while he was over there. Mr. Durbin: Isn't it also true that George Tenet, who was responsible for the intelligence that was so bad that led us into the war in Iraq, got a medal from the President the same day? Mr. Reid: That is true. Mr. Durbin: Did Michael Brown with FEMA receive a gold medal from the White House before he was dismissed? Mr. Reid: I don't think he did. Even though he was doing a heck of a job, I don't think he obtained a medal from the White House. Mr. Durbin: Apparently, these gold medals were being awarded for incompetence. They missed Mr. Brown, but they did give one to Mr. Bremmer. Will the Senator yield for another question?
