Obama Pulls Granny From The Grave To Defend Health Care
by Big Dog on Aug 17, 2009 at 00:06 Political
Back during the campaign we heard about Obama’s grandmother and how she had cancer and received a hip replacement during her final weeks of life. Obama said it made him wonder about the sustainability of a system where someone with little time left above the ground received this kind of care. Basically, Obama said that we should consider denying care to those who are terminally ill. That might have been an appropriate decision in his granny’s case but that is a decision that should be made in concert with a doctor, not a politician or a bureaucrat.
Obama is now using granny as a prop to try and push his health care agenda. Obama is claiming that anyone who suggests that there will be death panels is just wrong and it is hurtful seeing as how he lost his granny not too long ago. Obama thought it was a waste of money for granny to get a hip but that she is valuable enough to the debate for him to raise her from the dead in order to push his health care agenda.
Obama did not care one bit about his grandmother as she lay dying. He barely took time to go see her and he only spent an hour or so of his vacation visiting with her. Yes, Obama the humanitarian did not spend more than an hour with his grandmother after the medical system wasted money on her by replacing her hip. We are supposed to believe him when he says that he has no intention of pulling the plug on granny when he showed little interest in the health of his own grandmother.
Obama is desperate and is invoking his dead granny to bring sympathy to the debate. Demonizing those opposed has not worked. Claiming the protesters are Astro turf plants has not worked. Claiming that the protesters do not represent America has not worked so the only thing left is to raise granny from the dead in an attempt to convince people that the elderly hold a special place in the hearts of the left and will not be coerced into choosing death.
It has been a bad week for Obama and his health care plan. He has dropped the public option, he has decided against death panels and end of life decisions and Sarah Palin used her Facebook account to school Obama and show his true colors.
Raising granny from the dead seems to be about all he has left.
I doubt that will work seeing as how she was nothing more than a typical white person who was thrown under the bus long before she died.

The man will use anything to try and eke out a “victory” here.
once heard that there were two types of politicians
1- the “business politician, who was crooked, but would only steal a little, because it was in his interest to keep graft under control, and to be true to his word, because that was his currency in his world, his consistency, and
2- The “Idealist”- a man who would say and do anything, switch positions, and abandon friends and allies if it was expedient to do so, all in order to reach his goals.
Which one of these describes the Resident?
Obama’s personality shows him to be a narcissist. These people do not love anyone. When someone is no longer any use to them, they toss them in the garbage heap. The only ones they associate with are those who can raise them up and make them important. Eventually they fall.
He is also a classic sociopath- his responses are those that he has learned elicit positive (for him) responses, and those are the ones he concentrates on. All the rest is (for him) wasted time.
