Well as if killing our country and economy isnt enough:

Ohio diner owner dies hours after Obama visit


Friday morning, President Barack Obama ate a breakfast of eggs, bacon and wheat toast at Josephine "Ann" Harris' restaurant in Akron, Ohio. She met the president, and embraced him. A few hours later, she was dead. The Akron Beacon Journal said Harris, 70, apparently succumbed to a heart attack (http://www.ohio.com/news/break-news/akron-restaurant-owner-dies-hours-after-meeting-obama-1.318594).
Obama, winging his way back to Washington aboard Air Force One, telephoned her daughter, Wilma Parsons, according to White House press secretary Jay Carney.
"The president expressed his sorrow and his condolences at the very sad event. He was honored to meet her this morning and passed on his feelings that the whole family is in his thoughts and prayers today," Carney told reporters. Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki read a statement from the campaign's Ohio director, Greg Schultz.
"We're extremely saddened by Ann's sudden passing this morning. Our sincere condolences go to Ann's family during this difficult time. As a small business owner, a mother, a grandmother, a great-grandmother, and a friend of many throughout the community, Ann led an exceptional life and will be missed by all who knew her. Ann and her family are in our thoughts and prayers."
"I'm sure this was her highlight," Frankie Adkins, Harris' sister, told the Akron Beacon Journal. "She loved Obama."

You know while I think we all share the same sentiment let's try to keep in mind that we do have a few female members that may find that particular phrase pretty distasteful.
"Mudshark" may be more appropriate.

I'm waiting for this to somehow be blamed on Bush.

bush ate there before. CNN is reporting that Bush said the next president to dine at that location will be the last she will ever see.






in all seriousness, condolences to the family, and I hardly think obama really had anything to do with her untimely death...unless it was some extra stress for preparing a meal for the president.
