Obama honors Neil Armstrong with Picture of... Obama?

Neil Armstrong passed away on Friday due to heart ailments, but the heart that failed him at age 82, guided him to a life that changed America and also taught the world what humility is all about. So how does Barack Obama honor this great American hero? Obama posts a picture of himself staring off at the moon.
Mike Flynn has an excellent description of Neil Armstrong in his column on Breitbart.com:
Armstrong's heroism wasn't the lunar walk, though. It was how he comported himself afterwards that showed the true measure of the man. He was among the more famous human beings in history. Yet he retired to a quiet and private life teaching aeronautical engineering and tending to his farm. His walk on the moon wasn't a personal achievement, per se, but an accomplishment for all of humanity.
He made few public appearances. He gave very few speeches or interviews. His resignation from the public square made his lunar walk something mankind achieved rather than something Neil Armstrong achieved. His walk was the culmination of the work, not only of the thousands of engineers and scientists who directly worked on the mission, but also of the countless others throughout the ages who looked up at the skies and dreamed. Armstrong understood this.
Too bad Obama is no Neil Armstrong. Obama's arrogance is unrivaled and his narcism can't be contained... even when he is supposedly honoring a great American such as Armstrong.
On the Obama-Biden Tumblr page, Obama posted this message:
Neil’s spirit of discovery lives on in all the men and women who have devoted their lives to exploring the unknown—including those who are ensuring that we reach higher and go further in space. That legacy will endure—sparked by a man who taught us the enormous power of one small step.
-- President Obama on the passing of Neil Armstrong
What's tragic in this message is that Obama has done more damage to the U.S. space program than any president in history. America doesn't even have a way to send Americans into space any more.
But just as lame as Obama's actions is his "tribute" picture. Is it of Neil Armstrong walking on the moon, or perhaps some candid moment. No. It's a picture of Obama staring off at the moon. How is that picture in any way a tribute to Neil Armstrong? It's not. It's simply Obama giving us more of himself and less of a real president of the United States.
