Obama's grandmother passes

I'm sure it would have meant the world to him (and her) to see what shook out tomorrow night. My condolences.It is always sad to read about such things but especially given the historic potential of tomorrow.
I am sure she was a fine person and know that she was a strong influence on B. O.
Nothing special, just a 'typical white person' as described by her grandson.

sorry to see her go, will Hussein Obama leave the campaign to go morn.

Way to keep it classy' date=' guys.Oh stick it where the sun don't shine, Shep.
I remember you gloating over Bob Novak's illness and your comment about how somebody's passing can make the world just a little bit better place (Tony Snow).
Being called classless by somebody with NO class is a compliment in my book.
Nothing wrong with being 'a typical white person', is there. I'm sure it was meant as a compliment.

No shit Chic. I'm sure he will use his "typical white woman Grandma's death" to his stinking advantage.

When did Shep say either of those things?\ said:

I looked through the archives of the old site, and I didn't find anything about Bob Novak.
ballpeen started a thread about commenters on an LA Times blog writing horrible things about Snow, to which Shep posted this:
Is that saying that "somebody's passing can make the world just a little better place"? No.\ said:
I was amazed at Snow's willingness to tell bald-faced lies over and over and over. He'd tell you the sun was shining while it rained buckets on his head. I'm not sure I'd ever seen a press dude quite as wantonly insincere in my entire life... and that's saying something.That said, it's gross to wish suffering or death on any human being. He was a douchebag, but that's no excuse to be hateful about it. I have nothing but sadness for his early demise and the sadness of his loved ones.
I think your memory did you a disservice here, perhaps aided by your intense dislike of Shep. Either way, what you wrote basically amounts to slander.

Douchbag = "Typical White Person"?????????????????????

That's not the relevant comparison, John. It's between injecting nastiness in a thread about someone passing and lying about what a poster here wrote.
Those are two things that shouldn't be done by a moderator; they're also two things you've done in this thread.

It was really just a matter of time.

John, Obama deeply, DEEPLY loved his grandma.The reason his book was so well reviewed was his willingness to be open and candid about ALL of his feelings about being a mixed race adolescent, the good, the bad, the rash, and the regrettable. It's a fantastic book.
He recently said he didn't want to write a "political" book, he wanted to write an honest one. He's not surprised that haters are taking his very honest words and making him appear to be what everybody knows he isn't; racist and angry.
Obama is a guy who went to Harvard, not Howard, and he was raised by a white mother and white grandparents. He is not a black man insulated in a black community, and I can't believe I have to type that. This guy transcends race... and gave what is already regarded as one of the best speeches of our lifetimes ABOUT race.
This is a great guy, a great son, a great grandson, a loyal husband (who didn't cheat on his crippled wife), and a loving father. Someone very, very dear to him just died, Chic John, and you're being a horrific and hateful person about it.
Robert Novak is/was a total dick. That said, I'll bet people in his life love him and he loves them back and I would never wish pain or suffering on him. I doubt that "Toot" has said or done a minute fraction of the shitty things Novak has done... so let's show some human decency.
And whoever backed me up on the C&P, thanks. John, you need to reach down and find some dignity.
Show me what in here spews hate and lacks dignity, Mr. OMG.
If somebody is remembered as living a simple life, does that mean they are a simpleton or that they did noting grandious (sp), just did decent things and was 'good people'.
Her grandson called her 'a typical white person'. Where did I paraphrase.
You continue to want it both ways, Shep.

What was nasty about what I said? I directly quoted her loving grandson when asked about her.
You aspoles are the most intolerant, conceited, and obnoxious posters on this board and I spent a good part of last week cleaning posts in order to comply with the PM and direct requests to 'control' those who dare to disagree.
How do you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E????
PS This moderator job pays shit and has absolutely no benefits other than listening to Obams humpers complain that the world at large is against them.
Funny how they don't find another place to plain, er, complain.
Dismissed.

It was NOT the censor of conservative posts or posters anyone desired WHATSOEVER.
It was NOT the censor of differing opinions anyone desired WHATSOEVER.
It WAS the desire to eradicate the "spam" and garbage posts, racist shit, etc. Like cal posting the familiar "bark is falling off the Barrack Hussein Osamabama Socialist Muslim terrorist baby-murdering tree" trash in threads about seasonal beers, or threads started by, say, Scott Player or T that said the same thing for the thousandth time.
