Penetrating Insights into the Obvious
Posted on 10/24/2008 8:30:24 AM PDT by george76
Obama, who arrived on his campaign aircraft around 7:20 p.m., immediately traveled under police escort to the Punahou-area apartment of his grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, who is reportedly gravely ill with cancer.
After an hourlong visit, the Hawaii-born senator left for the Hyatt Regency Waikiki.
Obama expects to leave tonight and return to the campaign trail in Nevada tomorrow

YEP.
“Somber Obama”
First negative hit on BO since the election started.
Any minute now the usual suspects will be on here telling us to watch what we say or we’ll look bad at the daily KOS.
Some cancers, like breast, can contribute to bone thinning, so this is not an impossibility. However, I think something stinks in the state of HI and his name is Barack Hussein!
The man flies to HI and spends one hour with his dying grandmother? He stated yesterday something to the effect that they were all one another had left of family. Yet another lie since he has siblings, although half.
Even if he isn’t there for some other reason, to ‘grace’ his dying grandmother with his holy presence for all of one hour is lower than a snake’s belly! And wouldn’t it have been nice for his daughter’s to have said goodbye to their great grandmother? He’s sick and twisted!
Wait a minute, I thought he had the election won already with 400 EVs, isn’t that what Fox and Axelrod were peddling earlier today? If he’s already won the election as his stooges and the MSM keep telling us, why doesn’t he suspend his campaign and stay at his dying grandmother’s bedside? Why aren’t Michelle and his daughters with him? It would be my dying wish to see my grandchildren. This may be Michelle and the kids last chance to see their grandmother so why aren’t they there? School is no excuse as chilren are taken out of school for a few days over circumstances like this all the time. The absences are always excused, it is the normal, usual thing to do. There is something seriously wrong with this guy at all levels, he doesn’t seem to have any normal human attachments to others. I mean, his grandma raised him for Heaven’s sake! As I understand the family doesn’t have any pets either, I find that very strange, but then I kind of have a mini zoo going on so I’m probably biased on that score.
“It makes no sense to me. When my paternal grandmother died of cancer, it was a fairly fast thing, and she barely was able to hang on until my Dad could visit her one last time. This was a matter of a day, not a week.”
When my day died of (brain) cancer he had hung on bravely for over 6 months. Look at Ted Kennedy. You comment is snarky and meaningless. BTW, I had cancer and am still around!
Refresh my memory. Was there any coverage of him visiting her when he took the family to Hawaii on vacation earlier this year? I don’t recall any, but maybe I missed it.
1 hour, 1 photo-op, 1 fraudulent jackass.
As a hospice volunteer for over 20 years, that is not true. Under the care of hospice doctors & nurses, relatives, friends, etc. are allowed to administer the medication and manage the pain. A hospice isn't a place in particular it's a program. You can stay in a hospital, nursing home, hospice house or HOME. It's entirely up to the patient and the family.
The only thing with hospice is the patient is not allowed any life saving measures such as IV fluids, treatments, blood transfusions , surgery, intubation, etc. The requirement for signing up with a hospice is a doctor must diagnose the patient with a less than six month life expectancy (even though some have lived as long as a year or more).
About as somber as Clinton at the Ron Brown funeral:
Obama dances before heading off to Grandmother’s side

Hmmmmm
Wellll, if Dillbo had ordered Ron Brown’s murder . . . and succeeded so grandly . . . one explanation for his glee.
In Obama’s case . . . one less relative around to tell the truth?
I really don’t know, other than his ‘somberness’ is hype.
He’s a dark dude.
I think his natural state is somber . . .
except when he’s fantasizing torturing some whitey.
I think his ‘hope’ personna is the hype.
My Gosh! Flies all the way to Hawaii to spend time with his Dearest grandma and to help OUT with Chores as he tells Robin Roberts of GMA and the SH*T spends less than ONE HOUR with his Grandma (TOOT) and then retires to the HYATT REGENCY WAKIKI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a DEAR GRANDSON this darn WORM is! Obama went to Hawaii to handle his Bullsh*t Birth Certificate Lies and Legal Problems! Lets face it! Obama hates his Grandma! there was NO Compassion when he trashed her and threw her under the BUS, he had Ayers throw her under the Bus on the second draft of DOMF that AYERS wote for Obama HUSSEIN!!
Maybe she threw him out.
Just thinking as I read through the thread.
I stand corrected and appreciative of the correction.
No problem.
Strange thought — if Obama’s grandmother passes away, Obama will have very. very little by way of living family...
Mom Dunham: deceased
Dad Obama: deceased
Step Dad Soetoro: deceased
Maternal Grandfather: deceased
Kenyan Grandfather: deceased
Kenyan Grandmother: deceased
Leaving him with his half-sister (Maya Soetoro) and a handful of folks in Kenya he BARELY knows...
I can’t think of another person who has even come close to the White House with so few blood relations alive — and Obama is a YOUNG man compared to most who have sought this office — just another very, very weird fact pattern.
“Did they find cancer while treating her for that?”
That happened to a relative of mine, she fell in her kitchen and broke her hip and colon cancer was discovered when she was in the hospital recuperating.
