A wink to Neil Armstrong, a slight to President Obama. [View all]
Just as the family of Neil Armstrong requested, I thought of him as I gave a wink to the last blue moon until 2015. God Bless Neil, you will forever be the Man in the Moon!
Incredulously, Wikipedia has this to say: "Armstrong was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Richard Nixon along with Collins and Aldrin, the Congressional Space Medal of Honor by President Jimmy Carter in 1978, and the Congressional Gold Medal with his former crewmates in 2009."
WTF? Not awarded the Congressional Gold Medal by President Barack Obama but just awarded the medal.
If anyone knows how to edit Wikipedia "The President Of the United States Barack Obama" must be added to this page.
