This the the Grandmother the Obomination repeatedly threw under the bus ... and the family did NOT visist recently ... . Michele and the kiddies stayed home while Obama and his lawyers went to Hawaii.

Is Ted Kennedy next for a sympathy vote?

I put nothing past the Oboma people when it comes to encouraging votes ... even a "surprise" death ... .

Just in time for the East Coast evening news.

No one could be bothered to report on Husseins intent to destroy the coal industry but I see anyone with a website is covering this.

Obama learned of her death Monday morning while he was campaigning in Jacksonville, Fla. He planned to go ahead with campaign appearances.

The family said a private ceremony would be held later.

...

Obama’s nickname for his grandmother was “Toot,” a version of the Hawaiian word for grandmother, tutu. Many of his speeches describe her working on a bomber assembly line during World War II.

Madelyn and Stanley Dunham married in 1940, a few weeks before she graduated from high school. Their daughter, Stanley Ann, was born in 1942. After several moves to and from California, Texas, Washington and Kansas, Stanley Dunham’s job landed the family in Hawaii.

It was there that Stanley Ann later met and fell in love with Obama’s father, a Kenyan named Barack Hussein Obama Sr. They had met in Russian class at the University of Hawaii. Their son was born in August 1961, but the marriage didn’t last long. She later married an Indonesian, Lolo Soetoro, another university student she met in Hawaii.

(Hmmm his UNFIT mother met Obama’s daddy in a RUSSIAN CLASS at the University of Hawaii ... HMMMM. SO that is where the communistic indoctrination started ... .)

Obama moved to Indonesia with his mother and stepfather at age 6. But in 1971, her mother sent him back to Hawaii to live with her parents. He stayed with the Dunhams until he graduated from high school in 1979.

In his autobiography, Obama wrote fondly of playing basketball on a court below his grandparents’ 10th-floor Honolulu apartment, and looking up to see his grandmother watching.

(Yeah she died in the same cramped apartment she raised the little monster, Obama in. He threw no money her way either.)

It was the same apartment Obama visited on annual holiday trips to Hawaii, a weeklong vacation from his campaign in August, and his pre-election visit in October. Family members said his grandmother could not travel because of her health.

Dunham was "a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world but who once confessed her fear of black men who passed her on the street."

Um... How is this fitting in one's eulogy?

I express my own sorrow, and condolences at this woman's passing.

However liberal she may, or may not have been, she was private, and she performed her parental role twice...once for her own, and then for her grandchild when her own daughter was either incapable or unwilling to do so. She clearly loved her grandson and gave him all the opportunity she could.

She cannot be blamed or slighted for this. May she rest in peace and may God in Heaven rest her soul.

Now, what Obama has done with that upbringing and opportunity himself, in wandering in the drug culture, in becoming an abject marxist, and in rubbing shoulders with and hobkbobbing radical and terroristic relationships to a political career is another matter entirely.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

For the record, there is nothing more difficult about duplicate bridge than other forms of bridge except the requirement not to throw your cards into the middle of the table, and to gather them back into your envelope at the end of the hand so that they can be used by the next table of players in the next round.

She had a remarkable and full life. Vote against Obama who would rob millions of the opportunity that his grandmother had to enjoy that life.

Prayers for Obama up. I see a lot of stuff on this thread that we sure had a lot to say about after the Wellstone Fune-rally.

So Obama knew she was deceased as he was giving McCain the middle finger. Jerk.

On one hand, I send my sympathies to the Obamas.

On the other hand...in some ways, I envy her.

...My condolence to Barack Obama, and his family...I'm apalled that FR would condone this retort on attacks against the Obama family at this time. I am issuing a formal complaint to the ad. mon. and JR, No personal attacks...

Nothing about anybody passing from this life is worth politicizing or conspiracy theories. The end result is the same for that person, I'm pretty sure she would have liked to have lived longer. Who's going to be the first to get ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome). Regardless of what happens tomorrow I plan to keep on moving forward.

I knew he broke her hip when he threw her under the bus, but I didn’t think he would actually go the ‘sympathy vote’ route when he visited her in Hawaii last week.

So many questions; so few left to answer them.

May she rest in peace.
