Barack Obama with his grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, in Africa in 2004.

If anyone else running for president locked his granny away and refused to allow her to be seen, would the media complain?
You betcha.
But America's media have supinely allowed Barry Obama to pretend he has no white relatives. He has paraded his step-grandmother in Kenya, who never saw him until the 1980s, as his "granny," and locked the grandmother who actually raised him away in a closet.
Now, the Chicago Tribune reports "the Obama campaign declined to make [his white grandmother] available."
Is she sick? Not apparently. Bedridden? Hospitalized? Not apparently...
What a disgrace.
And like whimpering puppies the media do not protest, complain or demand access.
We are afraid to confront Obama's reality, so we pretend that reality is not there, even though it is staring us in the face. Anyone remember "Miss Lillian?"
We finally smoked out a picture of Obama's sister in the Chicago Tribune. She had said she was his "adviser" but refused to be photographed. Did she plan to enter the White house with a paper sack over her head?
Madelyn Dunham raised Barry Obama. It was probably her money that got him admitted to the prestigious Punahou School in Hawaii and paid his fees. Her efforts were formative... And yet Madelyn is being hidden away.
All because she is white and Barry Obama is a "black" candidate for president.
What a lie. What hypocrisy. What cowardice. And this man wants to sit in the Oval Office?
Ironically, locking Madelyn away is going to hurt Obama more with African-Americans than with whites.
Whites delight in drinking Obama's Kool-Aid. Reason and reality will only gradually descend on them.

absolutely. Have you ever heard anything so ridiculous in your life? This is not only outrageous it is plain stupid.

Remember Obama is distantly related to Dick Cheney. Heck I think all the “elites” are related. Both Bush and Kerry being related to the queen.
Obama is the spitting image of his grandfather . Amazing.
This is like that old tearjerker—”Imitation of life”—only in reverse, with Obama playing Merle Oberon—
Embarrassing.
Oh...now I see the basketball.
I just thought Obamessiah was levitating.
He is walking the fence all this time, eventually one side or the other will have issues with him. white side= uncle tom.
Eh?
LOL
Would have been quite right on.
What is the secret. Is Grandmother gay? Is she a Communist? Is she a Republican? Must be some reason type of blog.
No! No! It’s worse than that! She’s a lousy honky, ya hear? A white ass honky. I can’t run for president with a honky for a grandmother. Who cares if she raised me. That was then....I’m black now!
LOL...
It’s the Ascension of Obama.
yeah!
get whitey!
I’ll bet Madelyn was SOOO proud of her daughter...
Behold!.....the Power of Memes!
Good place for him since it’s a fat chance that he’ll ever get his feet on the ground....:))
