Prayers for his grandmother.

[redstateconfidential]

Muhahahahahahah!

[hiredhand]

Ailing Grandmother is code for "We're in trouble now!" :-)

[sarasota]

Why are you turning this into a racist thing? “no matter how racist we are here”??? Get over yourself.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Prayers up!

also, for his exposure and defeat

[Revolting cat!]

No prayers and no posturing here for complete strangers in the news! Sheesh!

I hope that the Media is following him all over the Island to see if he does his legal business as in getting a proper sealed birth certificate. When he was in Hawaii in August he spent two hours at his GrandMa's apartment.

Morris just said on Hannity he has never been asked if he was a dealer.Must be out there and I guess true.Could curse.

If his under the bus granny is sick I hope she recovers soon. That said, I think this is total B.S.! His handlers are going to keep him under wraps until Joe’s latest screw up blows over, they don’t want anyone asking Bambi why his running mate would make such a statement.

Exactly...Axelrod missed that part of the manipulation. Supposedly Obama isn't going to HI until Thursday, when it's a dire situation? And he's willing to cancel appearances in People's Rep of Madison and Iowa - pay us for our corn? And he knows he's coming back on Saturday? Not worried that she might need her only living blood relative at her side no matter what? Obama could have had his Grandmother moved to Chicago years ago. He is her only living blood relative. And he knows he has enough time to wait until Thursday, and he is sure that he'll be back on the trail on Sat?

Axelrod and Obama are corrupt, and while she is very ill, Oxlerod have ulterior motives. Which makes them more desperate and despicable. Why aren't his daughters saying goodbye to their Grandmother, why isn't Michelle saying goodbye to her Mother-In-Law? This is a publicity stunt, but more, it is worry on their part of the pending lawsuits and wonders about his drug dealer.

CNN's Candy Crowley was saying that the Obama campaign chose a time period for this trip in which Obama's schedule was to have him in what they thought to be safe states so as to lessen the impact of his departure from the campaign trail.

He doesn't seem to be in any rush to see grandma.

Why go at all? Barry can just send his handkerchief, like St. Paul used to do to heal people.

[DemonDeac]

Best to her. Some things transcend politics and I hope things go well. Prayers up.

RE: “Gibbs would not disclose her medical condition, other than to say it was “very serious.” She was released from the hospital last week, Gibbs said”

**************

Sorry, but not disclosing her “very serious” medical condition just seems disingenuous to me. What is wrong with this woman?

[LibertyRocks]

“no matter how racist we are here”??? SERIOUSLY?

I agree that some posts here don’t show much compassion, however, why in the WORLD would you equate lack of empathy with being racist?

New Obama advisor:

[Harry Wurzbach]

Yeah, we need proof, right? I mean, if “proof” is needed to show that Gov. Palin is the mother of her child, then certainly we need confirmation that (1) the patient is his grandmother and (2) that she is really sick.

[ncfool]

I BET HE DIDN'T TAKE OBAMA 1 PLANE If he took the big plane the entorage would be following with him. I hope that the GOP is campped out and watch every movement

[txhurl]

What’s your take as to why he’s doing it?

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

I think all of us wish her well. We question the truthfulness of Obama. That is no one’s fault but Obama’s.

How can we believe what Gibbs said? As I mentioned earlier, he also said no way, no how did Barack write a blurb for Ayer’s book.
