The Republican candidate for President Obama's old Senate seat has admitted to inaccurately claiming he received the U.S. Navy's Intelligence Officer of the Year award for his service during NATO's conflict with Serbia in the late 1990s.It was not an "inaccuracy". It was a lie.
"I was the Navy's Intelligence Officer of the Year," was what he said in 2002, which was not true in the slightest. His command was given an award. Anyone who has been in the service knows the difference between a unit award and an individual award. He is either a fucking liar or he is the classic poster child for the old saying that "naval intelligence is an oxymoron".
