If Obama loved his grandmother so much, why isn't he going to her funeral? And taking his children to see her off?
Because he won the election. He doesn’t have to worry about doing decent things like that again until 2012.
I wondered when the funeral was, heard nothing about it since the day she died.
Zeros fault!!!
If I had to guess, I’d say he has probably been estranged from her for years. The back and forth was a dog and pony show.
The King is going to hold his first press conference tomorrow in Chicago...
Granny’s on ice until the post election partying is over.
Or maybe she’s going to be quietly cremated with his original birth certficiate in her pocket.
Do Muslims do funerals?
Because she had outlived her usefullness.
It only takes one person to drive the bus over the grave.
If it’s true, it really is sad. I guess Grandma Dunham has served her purpose.
He didn’t even mention her in the acceptance speech & she had just died the nite before!
Thank you, thank you very much. I'll be here all week.
GRANNY AINT WORTH PAYING NO RESPECT TOO HER!!
AFTER ALL! LIKE OBIE SAID, SHE IS JUST WHITE LADY RAISED TO BE FRAID OF BLACK MEN!
Did he even have a grandmother in Hawaii? I mean really, Obama is a fraud from top to bottom.
And why were her last words, “Did someone add almond flavoring to my coffee?”
His grandmother raised him but having seen how he chose a life of Black activism has wanted nothing to do with O for years and refused to be photographed with O for 25 years
So Obama is getting even now
Because the campaign is over?
I did notice he didn’t mention her in his speech! Maybe because he already had her vote.
Maybe one of the reporters at the press conference can ask him about her funeral.
LOL!
I think it extremely odd that he did not take his children to visit their great-grandmother before she died. Extremely odd.
Because Zero is a big shot now! He does not have to bother shedding croc tears anymore...not until 2012.
The election’s over. He won. He doesn’t care.
What proof do you have that he’s NOT going to her funeral? Searching Google News, I find only vague references that he will be going.
Do you have a source?
Because Michelle hates whitey.
I read somewhere that they were going to have a private memorial service later. She was most likely cremated
I even emailed Fox news to see what they knew about the burial of Grandma Dunham. THIS IS REALLY WEIRD FOLKS.
Obama needs to address this issue. His lies are breathtaking.
Did Michelle and/or the kids ever visit her? I doubt if it suits Michelle’s angry black woman agenda for her kids to realize they are not black but biracial.
It would be fun to take a peek into their photo albums - there are probably a few empty spaces right now.
The pics I’ve seen of him and his grandmother doesn’t promote fuzzy familial emotion.
What a hateful racist question.
Shame on you! Shame!!
/kidding
That what I wonder. I think if he did, they were on bad terms. Why are there no family photos of her with him and his family? The only photo of granny that I’ve seen goes back to his Columbia days.
Because she was White.
Because he’s attending OUR funeral.
My wife's grandfather, a dedicated unbeliever, specifically willed that he be cremated and not buried and that there be no wake, no funeral, no headstone, no memorial service and that his second wife should - unaccompanied by any other family members - quickly dump his ashes in the ocean.
Given the general attitude of the Dunham family to normal social customs, a lapsed Unitarian Universalist like Obama's grandmother may well have left similar instructions.
I was thinking that this morning. Strange, indeed. Poor woman. Hope she’s found peace. :-/
hes holding his first news conference tomorrow in chicago. Obama is gonna blather to the media about his economic policies.
LOL
She also knows the truth.
ROTFL!
Granny wasn't exactly overjoyed to find out she raised a community organizer and black activist
She allowed no photos of herself and Obama for the last 25 years. This shows estrangement
Obama will win points with lots of blacks if he skips granny's funeral thus disrespecting the white side of the family
The only thing I can say and not in his defense but actual fact...funerals in Hawaii are backed up...takes weeks.
Because hes a cold hearted piece of crap.
many muslims celebrate death by sacrificing domestic animals - wasn’t there recent news about them getting a dog?
Only mass cremations- a-la 9-11.
Don’t they just throw them into an active volcano? That would solve the back-up problem.
I think that his grandparents were not religious people in any way. What is the term for parents of red diaper babies? I imagine if there is a service, it would be a memorial and nothing religious so there would not be any time frame in which to hold a memorial.
He comes from a background that does not honor life in the traditional Judeo-Christain sense. It is one reason that he is able to take the stands that he does on abortion. There is an emotional and spiritual detachment with him that I find very disturbing.
Also, I found it odd that a man who just made history showed no emotion during his victory speech. Didn’t shed a tear. Read a prepared speech from the teleprompter right up until the end. People in the crowds showed more emotion than he did. It seems to me that someone who supposedly achieved such a milstone would be be able to speak a few words from the heart.
Yep, real class has arrived at the WH. too bad it's all LOW.
Maybe she is just being creamated?
