Did Obama return to Hawaii to attend his grandmother's funeral? I don’t recall hearing anything about this if he did. How is he going to respect the American people when he can’t even respect the woman who helped raise him?
I wonder who paid the expenses for the lady’s burial?
He sure didn’t.
Oh, please.
Just because we’ve had a setback is no reason to panic.
We have not yet run out of substantive issues with which to disagree with him - this nonsense is neither required nor helpful.
It’s really odd. She was the only one who could prove Obama wasn’t born in the US. When it came down to the wire, he “visited” her and she died 2 days later. And he didn’t go to her funeral
I never thought of that. If she passed away on the 3rd, the funeral should have been Thursday or Friday.
Nope, said there will be a memorial in January.
OH, pullleeeaassseee....anyone ever hear of Memorial Services....which are held later? (Just happened to us, by the way.) Sheesh....stick with important issues.
I have been thinking the same thing. It is really bizarre. He said a day ago that he didn’t know when he would make time to go to the funeral. How nice.
She's on ice for whenever he can stop congratulating himself. Right now HE is his own spot light. Besides, she's “typical white folk”. Notice how Michele and the kiddies didn't go to visit her before she UNEXPECTDLY died. I am suspicious of that ... yeah throw your flames at me. What you don't realize HE DOESN&#d, abortion, he wouldn't “punish his daughters with a baby” are HIS VALUES.
He already had the Governor seal his CLB the last time he visited granny. No need to go back just to bury her. BTW, would an autopsy show bus tire marks on granny?
What’s the Muslim tradition for burial?
Keep in mind this is a female burial. Do the Muslims bother to even bury females? I ask because they loath females.
Why would he attend the funeral of a Typical Dead White Person?
Obama family values!
He will go to the memorial service some time in Jan. “as per her request”. I’m guessing she was cremated.
A memorial service next month for Barack Obama's grandmother will be attended by the president-elect and his family in Honolulu.
Madelyn Dunham died just two days before the election at the age of 86.
Obama flew to Hawaii in the final days of his presidential campaign to see her before she died.
The service is expected to be small, private and low key, according to Dunham's wishes.
No, but she has probably been dead for awhile.
This guy is freakin odd.
Why all these vanities? Why aren’t we posting news articles????
I’ve been thinking the same thing, but didn’t want to say it. Several days ago, I looked up who was with her when she passed on. It was Obama’s sister. So I looked up what I could find out about her. She supported him for O’s presidency as one would expect, but she also seemed to be a genuinely nice person, much more so than her older brother. I didn’t see any obvious red flags, but then they would try to hide them if any existed. I also think it’s highly suspicious that he did not take his daughters to see their great-grandmother just before she died.
I had the same thought!
