My condolences to Senator Obama.

Or illegally for that matter.

Anyway, condolences to the Obamas for their loss. Good to know he was able to get over to Hawaii to see her before she passed on.

[Big Red Ron]

Was this his white one or the black one? Seriously just curious.

His white one. The one who raised him most of his life.

Condolences to the whole family.

sorry :O

OMG HAHAHAHAHHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHA LMAORAOTF

If he were a pub the libz would be suspecting that he went over there to off her because she could identify where he was born .

sorry

[LosAngelesSooner]

Good thinking, Froz.

And for the record, condolences to the family. It's always hard to lose a loved one.

Tacky and mean-spirited, even for you.

Is this the same grandmother that he threw under the bus to defend his relationship with rev Wright?

Ya think it was the trauma from that that killed her?

[LosAngelesSooner]

Jesus...:rolleyes:

[KABOOKIE]

Yeah sorry for his loss. The Democrats will cast her vote for her tomorrow anyway.

[Harry Beanbag]

Is this the granny that he said was a typical whitey?

[LilSooner]

There are some Klassy people in this thread. KLASSY!!!

WITH A K I tell ya.

As it happens, she already voted absentee.

Under Hawaii election law (which is consistent with the other states) an absentee ballot cast by someone who subsequently dies is counted.

[KABOOKIE]

GTFOOH!!!

[sooneron]

That sucks for BHO. Man, I'm younger than him and my grandma died New Year's eve of 88.

[Frozen Sooner]

GTFOOH!!!

Think about it this way:

Can you imagine the paperwork nightmare involved with checking all absentee ballots to make sure that the person who cast them didn't die between the postage date and the first Tuesday in November?

Trust me, it ain't like he needs her vote in Hawai'i anyhow.

Surely there are computers that can do this sort of paperwork.

I think the humor is that it's been reported that she voted absentee before she kicked the bucket. Like it's really all that important. "Yeah, Barack's loving typical white racial stereotyping grandma has passed away, but thank God she managed to vote before the lights went out."

[Frozen Sooner]

Possibly. But there's two things to consider with that:

1. When were the laws written?

2. Who really wants to submit a bill to deny someone on their deathbed the ability to send in one final ballot?

True. Particularly in a state as unlikely to vote for a Republican as Hawai'i.

Then again, not NEARLY the silliest thing reported on in this cycle.

She was alive when the voting window opened, she just didn't make it till the window closed.

If a dude gets capped in LA after casting his ballot, they aren't going to void his vote just cause he died before the polls closed. Same basic principle here.

I don't think there is currently a way for humans to quantify how silly this entire election has been.

Wanna bet. Give me 5 minutes :P

There's your silly scale.

Um hello . . . it's called the South Oval.

So it's what, the democrat version of Oklahoma?

:confused: :confused:

[KC//CRIMSON]

If his brother thinks that 75% smokes ice or shoots meth, I'd say there's a real good chance he smokes ice or shoots meth.

Is his brother from Oklahoma?

I heard gramama did a hit of meth with grandson just before he slipped her an absebtee ballot and said, "Here's your will granny."
