This Obit appeared in the Houston Chronicle today:

Nothing unusual until you get to the end. In lieu of flowers he asks for donations to the Cancer Society and 'anyone running against Barack Hussein Obama'.
I do not want this to get political- but I find it very sad that someone uses something that should be a legacy for their loved ones in this manner. If he really felt that strongly I guess it's ok, but it still just seems tacky- especially when some of the memorial book signers seconded it.
