From the transcript of Obama's remarks this week at a tribal leaders conference:

Ah, the dangers of giving shout outs without a teleprompter. Crow is not a Medal of Honor recipient.

Crow's name is not included on the Society's Medal of Honor recipient list. He was, however, awarded the Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor, in August.

Obama, often described as "cerebral" by the mainstream media, should know the difference between the Medal of Honor and the Medal of Freedom, especially since he personally awarded the latter to Crow.
