"In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully asked that donations be sent to... to the campaign of

whoever is running against Barack Obama for president in 2012."

So some T-bagger must have really hated the president. I would also like to take the opportunity to let the family know that I am running against Barack Obama and I am pretty sure I meet all their qualifications. I'm White, male, and well... that's about it really. Cash only please, no checks.

2. I'm sorry
but this made me laugh. Hope Trump runs and people foolishly donate money to his campaign.

5. I'm toying with the idea of running myself. I'd get to travel and wine and dine on the GOP/corporate

tab for 6 or 7 months. Why the hell not?

7. Hate to say it, but that was my thought.
That and donating to the Obama campaign in his name.

13. I can't wait until Thursday so I can see the full obit. I'm sure he was a pillar of the community.

He was from Rome, GA BTW. I have friends who work at the paper that ran this obit. They just run what the families pay them to, LOL.

17. Isn't it weird that there's a funeral home ad in the obituaries?
Seems odd
