High Noon in Hawaii: Barack Obama and Andy Martin collide in the Aloha State

Wow! Could a presidential candidate, in this case “rock star of the world”, just slip in and out of a courtroom with no notice? Even a complicit press would salivate for the story (I’d believe).

[RDasher]

Here’s another interesting electoral possibility: As I said, there may very well be some Hillary die-hards among the Democrat electors. There would be plenty of precedence for that. In 1976, a Ford elector cast a vote for Ronald Reagan. In 1988, a Dukakis elector cast a vote for Lloyd Benson. In 1960, 1968, and 1972 there were unfaithful electors, each time betraying Richard Nixon.

And in 2004 a Kerry elector (from MN) voted for John Edwards.

Absolutely he could.
0bama is traveling to Hawaii under the guise of visiting his sick grandmother.
He will request his privacy, and will be granted it.

Put me on the list of those who wonder why Michelle and kids are not going. They didn’t accompany him to see grannie back in the summer, either. Further, one would think the wife would be there for comforting him if grannie meant that much to him...

[submarinerswife]

This guy needs to put up or shut up.

THEY NEVER PAN OUT!

Agreed, Jerome Corsi and Philip Berg have both let us down. I'm not holding my breath Andy.

In 2000, another weird source (complete nutball Tom Connolly from Maine) publicized W's drunk driving arrest that occurred in the 70's.

Connolly himself was arrested a few years later for dressing like Osama bin Laden and holding a fake gun on the side of a highway in Maine.

I guess my point is that even weird sources can have an impact.

Crazy Tom Connolly

[Josh Painter]

So what? Anyone can edit Wikipedia to say anything.

Got a real source?

I didn’t think so.

Next!

re Obama passport....remember, his and Hillary’s passport records at the State Dept. were hacked a while back.

[AliVeritas]

They left out... when he did go for that one hour (even though he was there for a week), the wife and kids didn’t go with him, and they were there.

Mr. ‘my mom died in Hawaii and i’m sorry I wasn’t there’.
Waits before he goes. Is it me?

Hmmmmmmmm ....

Ping! Ping! Ping!

[AliVeritas]

I said during the ‘passport break-ins’, that someone wasn’t trying to find out anything, they were trying to edit or erase something that shouldn’t be seen. If you remember first it was his, then when questions popped up it was Hill’s and Mc’s as well. Then we found out the CEO that had the subcontract was a big Obama financer, and one of said employees worked at an Obama campaign office. All of a sudden it went from break-in to they couldn’t access, they just viewed something they shouldn’t have. Mmmkay

[Puddleglum]

Hyperbole theatre at its finest!!!!

Let the mighty and aforetold collision of David and Goliath...(wait for it)...BEGIN!

[AliVeritas]

Explain his sudden change of plans? You’re kidding right? Sudden means getting on a plane when she was in the hospital or the minute you found out she was worse (why would she be home if she were worse, unless there’s nothing they can do, all the more reason to get there ASAP, not Thursday ‘or’ Friday). If his sister isn’t there, who the hell is watching out for her? He waits till she gets out of the hospital and goes home, then Gibbs said she’s worse, so he waits some more? Please.

He treats his brother like crap (regardless of what he does in his life), and I don’t have to tell you about his grandma who sacrificed at her age to raise him and made sure he had the best school (Punahou wasn’t cheap even back then). I knew all I had to when he compared her to Wright.

God bless her and I hope she gets better.

re: Andy, true... but he knows the machine like the back of his hand, in spite of his ego.

Wikipedia fails to require credentials for those submitting information. You can get some really wrong info on Wikipedia. Look at the wars going on over Acorn on Wikipedia.

[kabar]

Obama is not leaving until Thursday and he plans on being back on the campaign trail on Saturday. If his grandmother is on her death bed, Obama is not acting like it.

[ChiTraderRob]

This is shaping up like a Clancy novel.

[Danae]

I felt the same way, spent some time thinking about it. I do feel bad for his family. Having a sick or dying loved one is very very hard. My prayers are with this lady.

That being said, the reason so many thought that this was a contrived way to get (insert text here) is because we do not trust Obama, and so literally everything is suspect. Not without reason either. He is being far from honest with us and the electorate, why would we trust anything from the man.

Its indicative of a complete lack of trust. Nothing more.

Thank you for the ping!
