Hey, have you heard? Barack Obama is suspending his campaign today to fly to Hawaii and visit his ailing grandmother, Madelyn Dunham. He’s scheduled to return to the mainland Friday night, giving Joe Biden roughly 36 hours to stick as many feet in his mouth as he can find.
Obama’s granny, who is 85 and reported to be gravely ill, played a huge part in raising him and is pretty much the only family he has left, so obviously this whole turn of events is suspect. Let the conspiracy theories rip, anonymous Internet message boards!
The most popular hypothesis has been trumpeted over at the even-tempered salon that is FreeRepublic.com, and it goes a little something like this: See, there’ve been rumors floating around for a while about where Barack was born, and…. You know what? I’ll let Free Republic commenter "realcleanguy" explain:
“He has no birth certificate. And his grandmother will mysteriously die while he is there. You know she holds secrets that cannot be revealed.”Classy! And how does "nufsed" know for sure that Barack is on a granny-smothering mission? “Innocent people do not act this way.” Well then I guess it’s settled.
