How Many Laws Can One Break ?

Mr. Obama's Aunt Zeituni will not be a major campaign issue—compared to other last minute disclosures such as Obama's frightening boast about coal that now produces half of our nation's electricity: "If somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it's just that it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that's being emitted."

Yet in retrospect Aunt Zeituni will prove emblematic and raise a few disturbing questions (aside from the ethical matter of someone who was highlighted in a cameo fashion in his memoir as proof of his strong family ties, subsequently languishing as an illegal alien, in violation of a deportation order, in a public housing project a hour's flight from Chicago). Everyone has relatives that one is not responsible for, but given her symbolic appearance in Dreams from my Father, and at the Obama swearing in in 2005, Auntie Zeituni seems more in the Roger Clinton/Donald Nixon/Billy Carter category.

If HUSSEIN wins on Tuesday, "Aunt Zeituni" isn't going anywhere.

Probably get her a federal pension to boot.

"I am my brother's keeper, I am my sister's keeper", just not my aunty's keeper.

Great News. If you live in a hut and dont have a car like Obama's brother in Africa, you wont pay more for electricity and petrol.

How many laws can one break? That depends on whether you are a democrat or republican.
