Amen, losing anyone's Grandmother would be heartbreaking.

Re: Breaking News: Obama's Grandmother Passes Away

I'm really sorry to hear this. She was a member of the greatest generation and was a "Rosie the Riveter" during WWII. I'm sure that the day and a half that BO got to spend with the lady he called "Toot" will be really special to him now that she has passed.

The fact that his Mom, Dad, and both grandparents won't be around for the most important day of his life tomorrow is sorta sad.

Re: Breaking News: Obama's Grandmother Passes Away

What would you think if someone showed you your future and they told you, the grandchild you are helping to raise will become president and you will die the day before he does?

Uh oh. Am I the only one seeing a Clintonian repeat here?

Watch out when people start dying of natural causes, airplane crashes, and suicides!
