Obama: Hardest moment in my life was Sasha's illness
Politico44 ^ | 3/30/12 | BYRON TAU

President Obama reflected on the hardest moment of his life in a video released by the campaign, pointing to his daughter Sasha's illness when she was an infant.

"People ask me what was the hardest time in my life — they ask, well what about during the debt ceiling debate and this and that and the other thing," Obama said. "Sasha got meningitis when she was 3 months old. I still remember going to the hospital together and they had to give her a spinal tap."

"Your world narrows to this very small point," Obama said, about her illness.. "There's one thing you care about and you don't care about anything else."

Obama's remarks came during a dinner with six supporters at a Washington D.C. restaurant earlier this month

Was this before or after his vote for infanticide?

What a filthy piece of garbage. If Moochelle and he didn’t want her to be delivered 3 years before, he’d have had her slaughtered in an abortuary. What a jackass!

The hardest time in this illegal alien’s life has got to be his trying to pretend that he’s an American.

Hey Barry, I know sick loved ones and my MAIN thought is narrow - kicking you to the curb on election day.

What a mawkish, maudlin POS this guy is! I guess the second most horrible moment was when he learned that his would-be son Trayvon was shot.

“’Your world narrows to this very small point,” Obama said, about her illness.. “There’s one thing you care about and you don’t care about anything else.’”

Good for Sasha that she got well. Too bad her daddy resumed caring about destroying the U.S.

I thought we were supposed to leave his kids out of the discussion?

Anyway, it’s lucky for her we didn’t have Obamacare at the time.

If he would have just had her aborted, he would have avoided this. Of course, he wouldn’t have the opportunity to use it for political purposes.

I disagree with almost all that BHO says and stands for, but on this one small strand I think most can agree a sick child is one of the most terrifying things in a parents life.

If that really happened — and you have to question it — I can sympathize with him in such a trying time.

Still, I have the feeling that he would sacrifice little Sasha to Molech in the blink of an eye if he thought it was necessary and would work to get him reelected. You know, for the greater good.

False, she didn’t have menegitis. It was a scare. I went through the same thing with my 6 week old daughter. It was a bad expereience but not the hardest moment of my life by far. If this is his “hardest” moment, then wow, what a wuss.

One would think he doesn’t have to play this card unless he were behind Romney. With him up by double-digits in some polls, it strikes me as a bit odd Obama would pull out the “I’m really human” tactic.
