White House disgrace

Until recently, you could go to the official website of the White House, whitehouse.gov, and find a brief biographical page on every American president.

And you still can.

But now there’s a twist: The Obama administration has seen fit to add bragging points about Obama to the official biographies of almost all the presidents starting with Calvin Coolidge.

And so, for instance, a portion of the page on Coolidge now reads: “On Feb. 22, 1924 Calvin Coolidge became the first president to make a public radio address to the American people. … President Obama became the first president to hold virtual gatherings and town halls using Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, etc.”

Fast forward to Lyndon B. Johnson, and Obama repulsively co-opts the official Johnson biography to shill for ObamaCare. The hacks in the White House didn’t even bother to proofread when they tacked on their talking points: “President Lyndon Johnson signed Medicare signed into law in 1965 — providing millions of elderly healthcare stability. President Obama’s historic health care reform law, the Affordable Care Act, strengthens Medicare, offers eligible seniors a range of preventive services with no cost-sharing, and provides discounts on drugs when in the coverage gap known as the ‘donut hole.'”
