Sympathy vote is on the way.

There is nothing that Obama wouldn’t do to win.

Grandma better be carful.

The phone call was made from the White House.....

No way of knowing for sure; however, one highly suspects that this is a shameless publicity stunt, and is fiction from script through performances.

Another fine example of black-on-black crime, or are the Amish upset again? Have a prune!

Not to worry. If Al quaida did it they say it is for humanitarian reasons.

FAke campaign story.

I think Obama should bring (at his own expense, of course) all of his African relatives to live at the White House for their own safety.

Which shines a little light on ex-politicians and Islam.

The rabbid dogs of Islam give very little value to what their culture tells them is a weakened leader. They don't get to stay above room temperature for long.

Was she the one who “watched him being born in Kenya”?

May God protect her...the other gramma didn’t last very long after BHO ‘visited’ her in HI.

prompting stepped up security around her home in Kenya

Guess who's paying for it.

[blackdog]

As long as I don’t have to hear about her female genital mutilation as a faithful Mooselimb, I can lend a sympathetic ear to anyones Al-Qaeda problems.

“one highly suspects that this is a shameless publicity stunt, and is fiction from script through performances.”

Heavens...why on earth would anyone suspect that?
Is this administration *not* the most truthful and transparent one in the whole history of mankind?

"prompting stepped up security around her home in Kenya"
