Oh, to rewrite history... "Are we a cool planet, or what?"

The thing that most bothers me about Barack Obama is his unearned narcissism. His smugness and arrogance are beyond the ability of science to measure. I don't mind someone being a bit cocky or even arrogant, IF they have the accomplishments and achievements to back up the attitude. Obama's greatest achievement, though, is creating his own personal narrative. He is his own personal touchstone. Even when honoring a great American hero, Obama can't help but thrust himself into the event.
On Friday, America and the world lost a true hero. Neil Armstrong, who died of heart complications at the age of 82, was the first human to walk on the moon. His steps onto the lunar surface were watched by the largest television audience in history. His statement "one giant leap for mankind" echoed throughout the world, allowing people everywhere to step back from the clutter of their daily lives and pause to dream big things. People who witnessed it will never forget it.

Thanks for taking time.
Not a bad thought, as it turns out...
Mincing with the Marines.
One cultivated the peanut and the other one peed on the culture.
That needs to go viral!
That is (arguably) the greatest Photoshop ever.
Get a load of those ears! They're huge!

The stock photo is cropped so you don’t see Venus above the crescent moon. I don’t know what he was trying to convey but it sure is a Muslim image to me.

He’s been everywhere.
Good one! Kinda like Kilroy.
The greatest achievement in history of mankind was achieved by the United States of America. Almost all of the world knew who the great American hero Neil Armstrong was.
Neil Armstrong was living proof of the EXCEPTIONAL example of ingenuity, industrial might, spiritual strength,bravery, and technical prowess of the greatest country on earth.
The MSM media begrudgingly noted his passing.
The man deserved a national day of mourning instead of three minutes mention on the next morning.
Disgusting.
Yup. Whitney Houston kills herself with a drug OD, and the media and country go into national mourning for a week. The first person to ever walk on another world passes away, and the television media barely mentions it. I didn’t see any mention of it all on CNN, MSNBC, or even Foxnews.

“Clear?”
“clear...”
