The New York Police Department Honor Legion apparently has no qualms about honoring one presidential hopeful on another candidate's home turf.
Republican presidential hopeful Sen. John McCain of Arizona was slated to receive the Man of the Year award last night at the group's 97th annual award dinner in Howard Beach, Queens, the campaign said.
"Sen. McCain takes great pride in being recognized by a group of such distinguished and accomplished leaders," said spokesman Danny Diaz.
McCain was unable to attend the event, instead heading to Washington to vote in the tussle over the proposed immigration overhaul.
