A woman’s prized life-size Obama statue was stolen—and she was so distressed she went to a hospital
Rare News ^

Posted on 08/28/2014 5:47:00 AM PDT by TigerClaws

Tiffany Bruce of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania had saved up for months to buy a life-size Barack Obama statue for her front porch — and then someone stole it.

The loss of the statue, which cost a whopping $1,249, sent Bruce to the hospital, WNEP reports.

“I just wanted to wait until I got it on sale, so I started buying my furniture before I purchased the statue, but I had to have it,” said Bruce. “I peeked my head out the door and Obama’s gone and I kind of went into a panic. I couldn’t breathe, and I had to go to the hospital.” - See more at: http://rare.us/story/a-womans-prized-life-size-obama-statue-was-stolen-and-she-was-so-distressed-she-went-to-a-hospital/#sthash.r4JqTkp2.dpuf

When you consider the alternative (pResident Biden), it’s a real dilemma.

Did she check the local golf course to see if it was there?

Yes he was found on a park bench with a 6 pack of twisted tea and a cigarette. I guess there wasn’t a golf course nearby.

Should have put it face down next to an industrial sized jar of Vaseline and a log.

Anyone who would vote for Obama needs a hospital.

The picture of BO in the park with a drink and cig gave me a good laugh.

I'd be distressed too. What is she going to take to the shooting range now?

Oh, the huge manatees!

Well we don’t know. She could be one of the crazies that work. Just because she is black does not mean she is on welfare. Odds are in your opinions favor, just trying to give the benefit of the doubt.

Are those ropes sticking out of her head? Looks like the Ferguson thug in drag.
