Obama marks another historical event with not a picture of the historical person but of himself

On Thursday, the White House marked the death of 95-year-old South African leader Nelson Mandela with a picture of Barack Obama next to a quote attributed to the president on Twitter.

"Rest in peace, Nelson Mandela," the tweet said.

The picture sent with the message showed Obama in Mandela's prison cell, a jail with a quote: "Let us pause and give thanks for the fact that Nelson Mandela lived -- a man who took history in his hands, and bent the arc of the moral universe toward justice."  Keep in mind why Nelson Mandela was in prison.  (Nelson Mandela's Real History)

Not everyone was impressed with the narcissistic tweet.

"Another Communist bites the dust," one person said.

"It's not about you," added "Charly J."

"You're at the very least predictable," another person tweeted.


Saying that "it was easy to predict the narcissist in chief would make himself the center of attention on the day of Mandela’s death," 



On Saturday, the White House marked the 57th anniversary of the day Rosa Parks refused to give up her bus seat by tweeting a picture of Barack Obama sitting in the bus where Parks stood her ground.

"Today is the 57th Anniversary of the day Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat," the White House tweeted
