We have not found any specific quotes, although we know President Obama has discussed with several members of congress the suggestion of some kind of medal for Mr. Kyle. The president has frequently praised the work of the Navy Seals and other members of the military, and he has advocated for more money to be allocated to fight against PTSD in returning troops (the guy who killed Chris Kyle had PTSD). But it is a myth, frequently repeated online, that President Obama flew flags at half-staff for singer Whitney Houston while ignoring Chris Kyle.
