Obama used moonshot astronaut as photo-op prop. “When [Air Force 1] landed, Aldrin said he was summoned to the front of the plane. But he found out it was not to talk about space policy. Instead, President Obama wanted Aldrin to emerge from Air Force One next to Obama for a photo op. The moonwalker was to be a mere prop.” Pictured below: Buzz Aldrin and an empty suit.

To be fair, barry is a space cadet
Seriously he looked like if Obama wasn't President he would have punched and destroyed that face. Wouldn't blame him.
Well, we know he decked that one jerk who called him a liar and a fraud and the moon landings were all a hoax!
I wonder how many of "Zero's " supporters , if told that Obama actually was one of the first men on the moon and only because of " White " suppression Armstrong got credit , would believe it ?
Always seen with heroes , but NEVER doing the things that make a person , a hero . The life of affirmative action , allowing those that lack what it takes , to pretend to be like those that have what it takes .
This person is no Ben Carson !!!
If President dickhead wants to be an asstronut lets put him in an old ICBM he is fond of taking apart and shoot his ass to the moon. He can be king there till his air runs out....
I say we sent Obama to the moon in a space capsule so he can walk around and get a good look at the place... we'll perhaps send a space suit some time later if he really would like one.
Frankly someone as selfless and generous as he wouldn't want such a grand experience all to himself so we'll send Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and a few other colleagues to keep him company and their suits will follow a while later as well.
The monumental hubris that would not make room for just a measure of curiosity about the experience of walking on the moon... and all that the early astronauts were responsible to calculate, keep track of.... kinda boggles the mind really... unless there's nothing to boggle. There was one great man pictured in the photos and it wasn't Obama - though he clearly thought differently.
There is no end to his narcissism. The first picture in the article perfectly captures Aldrin's disgust.
Hey Kick, JP, anybody who likes to debate libs, in case you missed it

Ammo.
I'd didn't make this up but another way to look at that is the Gang of 8 and the libs are devaluing citizenship just like the Fed has devalued our currency. Both are making too many of each.
My wife told me yesterday that I need to stop watching Doomsday Preppers because I ordered a sample from Wise Foods, the long term storage food company. Good thing she doesn't know I am getting this too: http://www.backyardliberty,com
It's an aquaponics instruction program.
I will check it out and if it's plausible, I will let you guys know.
Obama shared a plane with Buzz Aldrin, the second man to walk on the moon, a man of courage, intellgience, daring and initiative (things that Obama lacks). That Obama never spoke to him says reams about The One's narcissism, lack of curiosity and distain for the accomplishments of others.
He's such a dick.
One collected moon rocks, the other IS a box of rocks.....
Adlrin should have used the NO word and watched Obama have a temper-tantrum.
