“Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.” _Michelle Obama 12-16-09

He is changing our history as fast as he can rewrite it, just like she said. People just didn’t really believe her anymore than they believed what he said. They both told us that they were going to essentially destroy the republic, in multiple speeches and clips. Halfway there.

In reply to HankeringforHistory. All history is rewritten all the time. Some people worry about that when it suits their ideology. Pity.

In reply to Michael. That makes sense since, to the best of my knowlege, NASA has always used UTC and GMT is normally quite close to that.

Thanks for reading my history blog, and I enjoyed this piece. I just commented on the White House bio flap in a newsletter I edit. But a historical note on this post–the moon landing and the walk both took place on 7/20/69, using eastern standard time. NASA has a timeline that has the walk early on the 21st, but that’s using Greenwich Mean Time, which of course is four/five hours ahead, depending on the time of year.
