HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — The sisters of a Connecticut woman fatally shot by police in Washington after she tried to ram her car through a White House barrier said Monday she wasn't delusional and suggest she may have been fleeing danger.

The two sisters of Miriam Carey, who was killed Thursday with her 13-month-old child in her car, disputed the accounts of officials and their sister's one-time boyfriend that she was under the delusion that President Barack Obama was communicating with her.

I heard the sisters interviewed on CNN this morning. They sounded reasonable. logical and lucid to me. I have a feeling this thing is going to get very messy.

Who was the first reporter or reporterette to report that she was delusional and who was his or her source?

That information sure seemed to work its way out pretty darn quick.

It’s sounded for the past day or so that the sisters are trying to find grounds to sue. Post-partem depression after 13 months sounds strange to me. Often families do not want to face mental illness within their own family.

I think the facts in the case, as they emerge, may be quite interesting as far as how SOP was or was not followed.

I guess none of the cops had a throw down on them. Finding a weapon in the car would have buttoned it all up.

I admit to have not even looked at the matter at all. But, I DID hear the sisters (Sistas - some want to spell it) and they were calm and rational.

She probably will.

My question is who is going to raise the 13 month old daughter?

There is nothing at this point that can be done for the deceased crazy momma. But the daughter is alive and hopefully someone sane and caring will raise her properly.

Obozo draws people like the deceased momma. Whether she liked Obozo or disliked Obozo, he has an affect on them. The Left is certifiably insane, because they deny God. There is nothing in their lives for stability.

That meme went from

“She thought Obama was stalking her”

to “ She thought Obama was speaking to her”

To ZIP, ZERO, NADA being said about it.

All within 48 hours

Within minutes of the shooting the media had information that she had "mental issues."

How would they know that within minutes of the event?

Whether or not they had access to her medical records, that makes me think that all of our medical records being put online for the government to access at will is not a good thing.

What happened to the story about someone seen on a videotape in the front passenger seat?

Possibly they are interested in why their sister was shot down in the street. There are car chases every day. Why did this one end in deadly force? Maybe that has been answered. As I said, I have not followed the story, but is there an answer out there?

It came from NBC and the source was of course unnamed.

Odds on that the source was from a government agency and they pulled it right out of their hindquarters.

Maybe, but if a close relative of yours was killed by the government wouldn’t you want an accounting? If you were killed by the government, wouldn’t you hope that your relatives would demand an accounting?

What’s wrong with the idea that these are people whose sibling got shot dead and justifiably want to know the truth?

If it were your sister shot dead, would you want every one of your pleas for real answers derided as an attempt to make money?

Do you really think that is the right thing to do? Try just for a moment to step away from the conviction without trial that you’ve clearly already decided on, and put yourself in their shoes. If your sibling were killed by cops, what exactly would you do differently than these people?

I think it only fair that Obama adopt the girl.

Thus proving you only have to spew lies for 48 hours for it to be effective.
