White House commemorates Neil Armstrong's passing with enormous photograph of... Barack Obama

I'd like to say that I'm surprised by this, but that would be a lie.

When I heard Neil Armstrong had passed away, it took me a while to hit me fully. I saw people send messages of remembrance and commemoration, and decided I should do my own, to show how much respect I have for a real American hero:

Neil Armstrong represented American hope, pride and excellence. And he took us to the moon. Godspeed on your last trip through the heavens.

It is nearly literally the least I could do for someone that symbolized American greatness so thoroughly, and in so many aspects.

You know what I didn’t think to do? I didn’t think to post a picture of myself to remember Neil Armstrong. Never got into my mind that this was a good way to remember his greatness...

No, only one person I know of would do that.

Just add it to the Narcissist-in-Chief's self-aggrandizement file, right after the sections that describe editing presidential biographies and modifying State Department country briefs to include unprecedented references to Dear Leader.
