Why???

Better than giving a Presidents Call to Service Award to a Death Row Inmate who founded the infamous gang The Crips.
So, I guess Andy Griffith is a helluva lot better to commend for something than that animal.

Andy is a nice guy, but I don't see why he deserves the Presidential Medal of honor.

oh I am near Washington DC, I wonder if he is still there or doing a autograph signing or something.

Way to go Andy

here is another page on the event http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2005/11/20051109-10.html

I would like to say Congrat's to Andy Griffith
for receiveing The President of Honor.

Much deserved congrats to Andy on this. He is very deserving.

As an aside...anybody else notice how much Andy's shrunk in his old age?? I saw video footage of the ceremony and Andy was noticably shorter than President Bush (who's 5'11").
