She is probably suffering from “thrown-under-da-bus-itis.”

I really really really want his grandmother to be o.k.
That way I won’t feel guilty celebrating his defeat on Nov 4.

*gasp* Obama's grandmother is *BONG!*
What did he say?
He said Obama's grandmother is flying a kite.
No, I said Obama's grandmother is *BONG!*!
(I bet both Brooks and Wilder are supporting Obama. *sigh*)

I had heard that his grandmother was “gravely ill”. If so, why is he waiting 3 days before going to see her?

Osteoporosis????? Thst is NOT a deadly disease. Means you ahve very frail bones... I wonder if she broke something, that can be rough... I am two stages behind that, Osteopenia. Shattered an elbow because of it.... but this in and of itself is NOT a deadly disease, certainly would NOT be emergent, life threatening, or something you would die of. Either its some other medical condition or Barry has other reasons for going to Hawaii.

"I really really really want his grandmother to be o.k. That way I wont feel guilty celebrating his defeat on Nov 4." I too, hope she gets well.
And we also are excited to see the defeat of one of the most racist men ever, to run the race for our beloved White House!
Vote!!!!! McCain/Palin 2008!!!!!

Was that video supposed to be of today’s visit?
Watching it was like watching a campaign video.

That’s video from when he was over there late in the spring or early summer....the family vacation to Hawaii. And yes, not surprised it looks like a campaign video. Word is that only he (BHO) visited his grandmother for about an hour during that week long vacation....and NOT Michelle nor the girls. No doubt there will be a video of this upcoming visit on Friday (flying over on Thursday, visit Friday, fly back on Saturday)...for the camppaign of course! (BARF!)

All the video told me was Grandmother has osteoporosis.Yet the reporter and friend are talking about her in the past tense.
I will add my prayers for Grandma.

No, osteoporosis is not itself life threatening.
However, at age 87, just the shock of breaking a hip and knowing that it will never be of use to you again very often means the victim loses hope....and simply withers.
I've seen it happen to my own grandmother who simply went to bed and talked to shadows for the next six years.
Granny Dunham sounds to be a pretty sturdy lady and I hope this rare visit from someone who owes her a great debt will help her spirits.
What he does while not at the hospital remains up to conjecture and I'm not so hopeful in that regard.

Not to be cynical as I wish the woman well, but I get a strong feeling that Obama is dragging his grandma out from under the bus to use her as a prop for his campaign. Please follow my thinking. Obama announces on Tuesday that he is suspending his campaign to attend to his sick grandma but continues campaign appearances Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. He then flies to Hawaii on Friday to see his sick grandma but is scheduled back on the campaign trail on Saturday. Some suspension of his campaign, don't you think?
Simultaneously with the announcement of the sick grandma, here in Florida and who knows where else, new Obama TV commercials start running on Tuesday featuring the Dunham family with old pictures of his grandma patriotically working in an aircraft factory. Could Obama’s running to grandma's side, not immediately mind you, but after three days of campaigning and running grandma's photo on TV, be a less than one day side trip to help his campaign?
How much TV coverage of this trip do you think will be done by the main stream media? Wall to wall coverage would be my guess. Am I being too cynical or am I spot on in my analysis? What do you think? Is the Hawaii trip, three days after the announcement, a photo op in support of the new commercials or out of genuine concern for the poor woman with tire tracks all over her body?
