wow...just....WOW!

I mean, the woman was here illegally, but couldn’t he have a little more compassion for her than THAT?

I hate Obama for a thousand reasons, but this isn’t one of them.

When my grandfather died, there was a *ton* of family drama that came out with the emotionalism of the moment. A LOT of anger and hurt and everyone was lashing out at everyone for a variety of reasons.

So I paid for my mom’s ticket to see her father buried and I spent the evening in my room praying for his soul. Heck, I prayed for the whole week for him and for my entire family to survive the loss of our bedrock.

There are a lot of reasons to skip a funeral - and the living are a big part of that.

I’d also like to point out that his presence at the first Ft Hood memorial overshadowed the dead and the families of the deceased. It would’ve been better had he not gone and his little speech hurt more than it helped.

Had he gone to his aunt’s funeral, the funeral would’ve been all about him because the press would’ve made it that way.

No. I don’t begrudge him stepping aside for this one and wish he’d do it more often.

I really do not believe he chipped in a flat dime. Truth is, Obama’s alleged family embarrasses him.

But the President did not attend the funeral. He hit the links

Wow! Class is like a woody. If you have it it shows. He doesn't have either.

He did not spend a dime. He must have asked for donations then siphoned off most of the money then reluctantly gave the rest for the burial.

She wasn’t his aunt. Barry’s father is Frank Marshall Davis.

I don’t believe they are related.

FMD is his father, and he went to that funeral. The kenyans are props, nothing more. Hes done using them.
