President Obama Friday called the family of a restaurant owner who died mere hours after his visit, the White House announced.

[bigbob]

“Gosh Mr. President, she was just dying to meet you!”

[FlingWingFlyer]

“This is...ah...the president....ah...of the....ah....United States. If each of you could...ah....send in...ah...three dollars....ah...ah...”

[null and void]

That was mighty decent of him...

[Stormdog]

Barack Obama....

Killing businesses one owner at a time..

[Uncle Slayton]

It all seems rather suspicious. This woman lives her entire life without dying and on the one day Obama just happens to walk into her place of business, she drops dead.

She might have known something about Obama’s past, perhaps even dating back to the suspicious circumstances of his birth. She just may have known too much and was going to go public.

[null and void]

More likely she gave him the wrong glass...

[onedoug]

EVERYTHING about this bastard is suspicious.

[gemoftheocean]

The same Resident couldn’t be bothered to call the families of the Fed. Agents killed by his gun running schemes.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Did he apologize?

[F15Eagle]

Seems the disinformation and persuade-to-dissuade crowd are popping up all over these days, using anything to dismiss any real look into the shell games Bammy has played for decades.

Must be an election year and we can’t have any viable discussion about Obama’s past, of course.

[dubyajam]

She was an Obama supporter. She probably had Chris-Matthews-cills creep up her leg ... And it got her heart. “Obama ... He will kill for your support.”

[GreenHornet]

Did he apologize?

That depends. Was she Muslim?

[WKUHilltopper]

“Obama calls late restaurant owner’s family”

Hey, would you fill out her absentee ballot? I’ve got a machine that will post date the date stamp on the envelop for you.

[Dallas59]

Just making it worse.

[F15Eagle]

Excellent

[Verginius Rufus]

Good observation. She had never done anything like this before in her life.

Maybe she ate the wrong half of the apple. I'm thinking of the scene in "The Fall of the Roman Empire" where the assassin cuts an apple in half, eats half himself and hands the other half of the apple to his victim (Marcus Aurelius?). There had been poison on one side of the knife only.

Actually, saw a video of the woman being interviewed right after the President left. She was in good spirits and excited about having just met Obama. She had one or two earlier heart attacks and had not been well lately--so the excitement may have triggered the heart attack but she may not have been long for this world anyway.

Nothing to see here... Of course if this had happened in 2004 to someone who had just met GWB hours before, the media would have handled it much differently.

[F15Eagle]

Can’t improve upon that. You summed it up quite well.

[F15Eagle]

Agreed, nothing happening here. But it doesn’t apply to other information.

That being said, I remember when Tim Russert appeared to turn into an Obamabot. I saw him being interviewed on the news via remote and he was absolutely white as a ghost. It really came through even on the TV. I remember thinking at the time that he really, really did not look good.

He was going on and on about how Hillary should just accept that Obama was going to be the nominee.

I don’t think he was around more than a couple weeks after that. When I heard, I immediately thought of that news show I saw him on just before that.

——It all seems rather suspicious——

Dude, she was 70 years old....it’s rather ridiculous to think we have a conspiracy here....

“Hello, this is President Barack Obama. In lieu of flowers...

[F15Eagle]

lol, I think you meant "predate" - it would need to be before - you know, like how the post office magically dated his SS card the day *before* he signed it -- oh and somehow dropped the century.

[F15Eagle]

I think you missed the intent of that post.

[bgill]

I’ve always said that bus should be called the Black Plague.

[WKUHilltopper]

“lol, I think you meant “predate”

LOL...yes, predate. Coffee hadn’t kicked in enough yet at the time of posting.

[layman]

President Obama called the family ....... the White House announced.

Why would the White House announce this ? I'll answer my own question .... they announced it because everything this phony does is contrived and intended to reflect favorably on HIM .... he doesn't really give a rat's behind about the woman who died. A person who was sincerely concerned would have privately made the call without any 'LOOK AT ME' frigg'n announcement. I detest this undocumented POS.

[F15Eagle]

LOL, I have to use Coca-Cola or Pepsi

>"The same Resident couldn’t be bothered to call the families of the Fed. Agents killed by his gun running schemes."

But he did deny the 300+ dead Mexican relatives the use of metal eating utensils!

[F15Eagle]

Yep, it’s an election-year campaign ad aimed at the dumbest of dumb - IOW, folks who are easily-fooled into voting for him.

[Bigg Red]

Did he apologize?

***
Probably blamed Bush....

[the invisib1e hand]

Killing businesses one owner at a time..

Yeah, that about sizes this up.

[CatherineofAragon]

No doubt to suggest that they pass on burying her and donate the cost of the funeral to his campaign.

[haircutter]

does he call each Family of a service member that is killed in action??

Didn't think so. It's all about HIM....such a phony

[Wolverine]

You are still going to vote for me ARN'T YOU?????????

[HiTech RedNeck]

Neither of the Bush administrations would have trumpeted this kind of thing — nor Reagan.

[Gay State Conservative]

He called to remind them that mourners at her funeral should be urged to donate to his campaign rather than the American Heart Association.
