Ads being run in Ohio Obama says she died at the age of 50(?) from cancer and was more worried about how she was going to pay for the bills than she was her health

I'm already sick of that ad.

“what is the symbol on B. Hussein’s necklace?
Is that an allah akbar or a muzzlim symbol of some sort?”

I think the symbol is something nearer to 60’s hippie/earthy interpretation of Native American art. Probably Southwestern US.

Maybe the Times story will tell us she had no such financial problems.

Anyway, I take with a grain of salt any politician talking about their family’s suffering.

“But Obama is using his mother in a campaign commercial about health care...”

Is he telling people how badly women are treated in the Islamic World, especially with regards to medical care?

What can they say about his dead mother that could possibly be relevant to his campaign. Even if they found out she was a drug addict/crack whore/child molester. Would that make anyone not vote for BO?

"I'm no fan of Obama, but bringing in his mother is hitting below the belt I would say."

The story will likely be neutral, not attacking in any way. What the NY Times wants is to remind people that Obama is a bi-racial man, with a white mother. This alone might take away some black votes, or at least that's what Hitlery's friends at the Times believe. As much as I deplore Chillery Klintoon, I'd prefer she get the nomination over Obama. Obama is a muslim, and his "church" is extremely Afro-centered, quite exclusive. Nobody knows what his deep beliefs are because he has no record and says nothing. Also, Hitlery is more beatable than Obama, who personifies the type of shallow man who can get votes from the intellectually shallow American voters, who abound today.

The Chicago Trib did a background on Boma’s mother a while back and is on line.

She was an Atheist - Marxist - and married to Boma’s father when he was still m. to Afrcan wife.

Her background makes Hitlery look conservative.

I really dont care what they come up with ...this is scrapping the bottom for some kind of dirt on Obama. Maybe this is one of the voices hillary is hearing in her head and is very confused about what they want from her.

Obama Ad That Touches On Mother’s Cancer Released In More States

http://tinyurl.com/364a22

My mother died of cancer at 53. In those last painful months, she was more worried about paying her medical bills than getting well. I hear stories like hers everyday. For 20 years Washington has talked about health care reform and reformed nothing. I’ve got a plan to cut costs and cover everyone. But unless we stop the bickering and the lobbyists we will be in the same place twenty years from now. I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message because to fix health care we have to fix Washington.

before Muslims were “popular.”

I'd say, "before everyone knew Muslims were beneath contempt."
