The Obama White House is drawing ridicule for appending the official online biographies of nearly every president over the last century in order to link President Obama's accomplishments to the former commanders in chief.
The Obama team went into the pages of U.S. presidents dating back to Calvin Coolidge to add friendly looking "Did you know?" fact boxes to the end of their bios. Those additions were used to plug a host of Obama administration initiatives, ranging from the health care overhaul to the so-called "Buffett Rule" to his green-energy policies.
For instance, the following line was added to the official bio of the late President Ronald Reagan: "In a June 28, 1985, speech, Reagan called for a fairer tax code, one where a multimillionaire did not have a lower tax rate than his secretary. Today, President Obama is calling for the same with the Buffett Rule."
The White House is coming under heavy criticism from conservatives for the changes, and not just to Reagan's page.
Late Tuesday, the White House defended itself, claiming the staff was merely adding links to other pages.

They are devious, aren’t they?
I said this on another thread, but as much as we hate the idea of ‘growing govt’, we are going to have to create an entire dept of forensics guys/experts to go through pretty much everything to de-obamafy the records of this country. That will take thousands of people and years of work.
If they are this open about it, you can bet that the national archives et all are full of ‘modified’ history by now.
There seems to be an “S” missing in “reign”. Well, they did get it right about him being merely a footnote.
Took a second look at this.
Obama-tagging the official roster of past presidents? (Not just furnishing a separate document with this kind of drivel in it.)
This is like graffiti on Mt. Rushmore.
Anybody, anywhere, seen the likes of this? The Egotist In Chief!
Yes thats a copy and paste from wikipedia but it sums up the asshole sitting in the Oval office perfectly
From these bio additions, I conclude that Obama is incapable of doing any original work.
