Bad News From Times Of UK: Obama Lowering Transition Priorities
President Bush has repeatedly described the acute vulnerability of the US during a transition. The Bush Administration has been defined largely by the 9/11 attacks, which came within a year of his taking office.
His aides have pointed to al-Qaeda’s first assault on the World Trade Centre, which occurred little more than a month after Bill Clinton became President in 1993. There was an alleged attempt to bomb Glasgow airport in Gordon Brown’s first days in Downing Street and a London nightclub attack was narrowly thwarted
With his inauguration two short months away, President-Elect Obama initially planned to dedicate his full time and energy to the transition, assuring concentrated attention to the defense of America at this important moment in history, but instead he will be skipping out on many details of the changeover in order to arrange and attend immediate private funeral services for his late grandmother.
The family memorial had been postponed until after the inauguration on advice of intelligence agencies, because the need for a smooth and well-executed transition is unprecedented in the history of the nation, but the timing for the memorial now has been moved up to satisfy a handful of lamebrain former McCain voters sniping at the President-Elect on a Louisiana politics internet site. “This is unfortunate timing,” said transition spokesman David Axelrod, “but satisfying the whiners at PoliticsLa takes a much higher priority than national defense.” Contacted at the political website, veteran whiner “Fred” told the AP, “WTF? Let him go then. We’ll just claim it’s part of the birth certificate conspiracy. Obamanation loses either way with us.”
Bobby, anybody could understand not doing anything the last two days of the election… but since his election, the stock market has closed lower than opening all but two days, there was an economic summit that he didn’t attend, he’s resigned from the senate giving a nice farewell, he’s looking deeper into the back ground of his employees more than any other President ever has, he hasn’t buried his grandmother, and it seems to me that the top priority of Obama really is.... you ready for this? Don’t get too exciting…

Obama is really really working hard....
don’t get to excited.
Yes folks, Obama is working hard....
at getting a dog.
First he wasn’t fast enough in rushing to bury his grandmother, and so many on this forum were complaining that he was disrespecting his grandmother. Now he is going and you are still whining? Can’t you make up your mind what is important? Not sure what you expect Obama to do about the stock market...Even Obama can’t fix what took years to make happen in a few short days. After all, McCain said that the economy is “fundamentally sound” and you wanted him to be president, so what are you worrying about anyway?
How awful. That is SO disrepectful to her that her own family won’t show up for her funeral! It just goes to show you what type of person OB is. Glad I didn’t vote for him. What an awful person he is. His actions speak FAR louder than his words. Anyone can say anything but it’s the ACTIONS you need to look out for. And OB has a terrible character!
Oh, puh-leeze stop with the righteous indignation. Obama took the time during a crucial period in the campaign to go to see her while she was still alive, which probably meant more to her than muttering a few platitudes over her ashes after she’s dead.
Like Bill said, funeral arrangements are a private thing. They ought to be off-limits to incessant snipers like you.
You forget, when OB went to “visit” his ailing grandmother, he also took a pitstop to the courthouse and paid 700,000.00 to quiet his birth certificate issue. The guy is a jerk! Plain and simple. And you’re right, funerals ARE a private thing. They had enough people to secure the funeral and whatever else they needed to do to have their own funeral. But I think I just hold people to a higher standard.
Right. The $700,00 in cash that he carries around in his suitcase, like Edwin did. Did he spread it around to all the courthouse gang, or did just a few get some? You’d better get back on your meds. You’re losing touch with reality.

You sound rediculous.
I think he was actually embarassed into attending his mammy funeral.

Gee “Bull” and here all along I thought only FRED was the Psychic that could read minds and know what someone was thinking. What is your 1-800 number, I want to win the lottery.

You can’t have my number, but I’ve got yours and it ends with 23.
