First off........
I mean really ? Here's the scoop.
The White House website has always featured biographies of past presidents. The biographies are largely designed for students, so they can
research the history of the White House occupants; the text is taken from The Presidents of the United States of America, by Michael Beschloss and
Hugh Sidey.
Now, however, President Obama has decided that those other presidential biographies weren’t complete without a sentence about him. Seriously. As
it turns out, all past presidents are just a window into President Obama’s grand accomplishments. Here are some examples:
President Calvin Coolidge: “On Feb. 22, 1924 Calvin Coolidge became the first president to make a public radio address to the American people.
President Coolidge later helped create the Federal Radio Commission, which has now evolved to become the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
President Obama became the first president to hold virtual gatherings and town halls using Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, etc.”
The creation of the FCC wasn’t even one of Coolidge’s top ten accomplishments as president. But it allows Obama to brag about how he uses
Facebook, so now it’s one of Coolidge’s most important achievements.
President Herbert Hoover: “President Herbert Hoover signed the bill founding the Department of Veterans Affairs July 21, 1930. President Obama is
committed to making sure that the VA, the second-largest cabinet department, serves the needs of all veterans and provides a seamless transition from
active duty to civilian life, and has directed his Administration to modernize the way health care is delivered and benefits are administered for our
nation's veterans. First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden launched Joining Forces to mobilize all sectors of society to give our service
members and their families the opportunities and support they have earned.”
President Obama, you’ll notice, didn’t talk about continuing Hoover’s Keynesian economic policies, which helped to prolong the Great Depression.
But he does like veterans!
Obama Inserts Himself in White House Bios of Past
Presidents
The GOP's answer to it....
In this White House, it's all about "The One." Need proof? Now his White House staff has even started inserting Obama into the biographies of
previous presidents. In fact, the photos below highlight Obama's role in some other historical moments, you may not have been aware. (NOTE: This
website is intended to be satirical and is not intended to be construed as real ... except perhaps in the mind of President Barack Obama.)
