She DOES seem like a nice lady:

MEMBER PROFILE
still troubleshooting

Zeituni Onyango, former computer systems coordinator, Boston

I joined Experience Corps because: I felt that I should help the children in my community. I love people and enjoy interacting with them. My friend had so many wonderful things to say about her work with Experience Corps. Also, I was idle, and this was a chance to get involved.

I know I’m making a difference when: I see the change in children I have worked with. All children are fine as long as they have a good foundation, but there is no foundation without literacy.

My favorite part of tutoring with Experience Corps is: Being able to help children succeed. As an older adult I feel I have much to give young people - as well as my peers. Experience Corps has given me that opportunity.

Working with students teaches me: Just how much I can impact the education of children in the school system. I learn different strategies and approaches to help children and also to improve myself. In addition, being an Experience Corps member has taught me that I can be a leader in my community.

She probably is a nice lady. A pity her nephew is a soialist who hangs out with marxists and Black September sumpathisers. But she’s here illegally and living in public housing. Up to me, Barack can step down gracefully and she can stay in public housing. You think Obama will go for that? Me neither, he’d rather see her deported and living in the shcak with his half brother on 12 bucks a month than give up the Leader thing.

That sounds like Acorn speech. I read a thing where a bunch of Acorn people went to a hearing and they gave their testimonials and it sounded exactly like that.

Why was she ever here in the first place? Any hint on that?
