'08er Skips Easter at Wright's Church.

Barack Obama was able to take the focus off of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright on Friday by picking up the endorsement of (a bearded) Bill Richardson.

Obama's allies are hoping the focus will stay off of Wright this Easter Sunday when the Democratic frontrunner skips services at Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago and heads on vacation.

Per ABC News' Sunlen Miller, sources familiar with Obama's plans say the Illinois Democrat is expected to go on a tropical vacation with the most likely bet appearing to be St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Obama, whose campaign will not confirm his plans, is expected to leave Chicago on Sunday morning...

Where is there any mention of his ailing grandmother?

[Free ThinkerNY]

Obama’s Grammie Cracker will miss getting pushed off a pier.

[sodpoodle]

You just have to wonder how much did Ted Kennedy know about this *kid*?

The appeal must have been getting the Dem Party back from the Clintons...and believing Barack would be beholden.

Nothing else makes sense.

[O Neill]

Beach Blanket Babylon at the same place Bill & Hill went (where Her Thighness was first captured on film in a bathing suit)?

[cubreporter]

I hope he and his family have a nice little vaction together. He needs to come back all refreshed and ready to take the Dem nomination when it is time.

[Paleo Conservative]

Being a typical white woman, she’d probably get sunburned.

[sodpoodle]

***Where is there any mention of his ailing grandmother?**

Like his middle name - apparently, Grammobama must not be mentioned by the MSM. Only Barack is allowed to see her or diss her.

[Palladin]

Don't worry, Michelle. That last wave got Grandma. Now there's no more honkies in the family!"

[george76]

That is the point...no mention of her after Obama threw her under the bus recently.

He apparently has not seen his only living biological grandparent in over a year .

He goes to a beach, but not near her for Easter.

[Pistolshot]

Man, I gots some really bad tan lines."

[indcons]

LOL, sodpoodle. Great point.

[Yaelle]

"I just got this new computer to see how Barry's campaign is going. Oh my goodness, so he thinks a typical white woman would take in her daughter's little boy and pay for his fancy education so she can go gallivanting around the world? I wish I were on the mainland; I'd take a switch to that kid's behind today! Typical white woman, my grandmotherly white buttocks!"

[O Neill]

Anything but THIS...

[Roscoe Karns]

[george76]

So much for the 'post-racial' candidate

[ErnBatavia]

Muy Bueno!

[italianquaker]

Is he hanging out with the looter guy

February 05, 2008 Picture of the day: Obama's grandmother

Hey look, a bunch of wire photographers went to harass Barack Obama’s grandmother, Sarah Hussein Obama, at her chicken home in Kenya today! I suppose this has some sort of… historical significance about the changing face of American politics and the international dialogue on race and what not? All I see is Barack’s grandma and a damn rooster running around. [AP Photo]

Where is the Picture of Obama White Grandmother?

[DakotaRed]

And they never show photos of the loving “Typical White Person” grandmother that raised his sorry butt.

[Roscoe Karns]

[cmsgop]

LOL!

[Ann Archy]

Geesh...no wonder he is so confused....look at the difference in the two grandmothers!!!

[OrioleFan]

You didn’t darken or lighten up parts of this photo, did you?

[george76]

Not me.

[OrioleFan]

Just checking... The right to photoshop B Hussein O is reserved for the Hillary campaign. I can’t wait till Hillary puts McCain in blackface.

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

I don’t know why, but he reminds me of Looter Guy in that photo.

[Girlene]

The Rev. Wright was supposedly on a cruise somewhere. Maybe Obama plans on meeting up with the “good Rev.”. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?

[Condor51]

He’s not at Granny’s today ‘cause he can’t find the Bus he threw her under.

[Enchante]

Devout Christians I know always skip the chance to spend the Easter Holiday with their congregation or with the one living relative who raise them in order to frolic on a Carribean beach..... /s

Poor ol’ “typical white person” grandma, not only has she been thrown under the Obama bus but she’ll be lucky to receive the time of day from him unless there’s a campaign purpose served by it.....

[montag813]

Geesh...no wonder he is so confused....look at the difference in the two grandmothers!!!

That black woman is NOT his grandmother. That is the woman his bigamist grandfather married after he left Obama's real grandmother.

[Piquaboy]

Focem!

[2harddrive]

Osama! Obama! He’ll make Big Gov yo’ Momma!

[Lady Jag]

Fantastic info. Thanks for posting it!

[george76]

Was Obama ever baptized ?

“...skip the chance to spend the Easter Holiday with their congregation “

[bray]

His Grandma had a Klan meeting she had to go to this week.

Pray for W and Our Troops

[Palladin]

I love it!

Especially Chris Matthews lusting after Obama in his heart!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Obama only vacations where there are no typical white people — they’re too scary.

[Old Professer]

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

LOL!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Again, LOL!

Nic touch with Hissy Matthews.

[Enchante]

remarkably, the one on the left is supposed to have become somewhat conservative (compared to Hollyweird anyway)

[Enchante]

Don’t know if he was ever baptized but given that there never seems to be any reference to it I suspect maybe not.....

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

The Rev. Wright, first he's retired, then incommunicado on an eight month cruise to an undisclosed location.

Meanwhile, Obama stays time zones away from Trinity Church AND his "typical white person" biological grandmother (who also raised his ungrateful arse),vacationing incommunicado at an undisclosed location.

[GVnana]

ROTFLMPO! Meanwhile back at grannie’s condo...

Yes. Where in the world is Rev. Jeremiah White? Maybe Roscoe Karns can find him in one his "pictures". :-)

[BruceS]

What I find interesting is that during a time that the US economy is struggling, Obama goes to the Caribbean to vacation. Seems to me that there are some very good (and private, if that is what he wants) beaches in the US.

He must be going outside the US to get some additional foreign policy experience.

[BIGLOOK]

Time to check on his off shore accounts, George. A Holiday shut down across the boards.
