His mom was a US citizen (born in Kansas). BHO was born in Hawaii...I don’t think this pertains to citizenship.

Obamalama’s family reunions must look like a damn UN convention.

LOL! McCains looks like a mini UN convention itself. That doesn't bother me but their POLICIES do.

I recognize that photo on the right: Honolulu Zoo, near the entrance.

I realize that Obama’s mother died in 1995, but where in the world was she living at the time? Does anyone know?

She didn’t seem to spend much of her adult life on US territory.

Obama’s mom is dead. But his very white maternal grandma is very much alive and living in Hawaii. Given the importance of pushing his “blackness” in primary states where Blacks form an important segment of Democreatic primary votes, she has been kept out of sight. But she’ll be let out for the general election. Grandma and Granpa (now dead) largely raised Obama while mom flitted about going to grad schools.

Oh it’s about to get ugly. Not just Hillary ugly, we are talking all the way to Code Pink level ugly.

Now that is downright ugly

You haven't seen anything yet.

They are still holding "Cindy Sheehan ugly" and "Helen Thomas ugly" in reserve.

Expect a tax on Barf Alerts and Barf Bags to pay for it all.

Clinton orders stooges to attack someone’s mother.

Yet no mention was made of the Toons bar hopping mother
who had a rather colorful reputation in Arkansas. Has there ever been confirmation
by DNA of the Toons birth father, or is he still a "?"

She was reportedly living out her days in Indonesia, with Barry’s half sister.

Thats what I’ve read at any rate.

Thanks for that...

I have questions about the basic honesty of Obama’s ad bemoaning his mother’s unfortunate situation. I have a few questions I would ask him, given the chance:

1. If she were in the States (say Hawaii) and was between jobs, having been covered in the previous job (implied by the ad), why wouldn’t an intelligent PhD be smart enough to secure coverage under COBRA?

2. Obama only refers to the fact that she worried about her bills and whether she was covered or not. Did she get coverage? Did she get treatment? Was the treatment paid for, and by whom?

3. If she was not living in the United States and living in Indonesia at the time her cancer was discovered, why should the US health system be faulted?

4. To what degree should American citizens be required to pay for the choices (in this case, a rather exotic adult life spent in many various locations and countries)?

I am not critizing her choices, btw. We do have our freedom, after all, to choose whatever lifestyle we want. I’m just asking why should I, or you, have to subsidize part of it?

It was a cheap shot, but I feel no guilt over it. I don’t trust him or his real religion.

Guess the NYT is still intimidated by the communist-would-be president.

According to this, Islam has no symbols.

That’s true, Obama practiced the whabbi form of Islam, so he shouldn’t be allowed to wear a necklace.
