Obama says he didn't know aunt's illegal status
MSNBC ^

Posted on 11/01/2008 8:33:43 AM PDT by MAD-AS-HELL

WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Saturday he didn't know that one of his relatives was living in the United States illegally and believes the appropriate laws should be followed.

The Associated Press found that Obama's aunt had been instructed to leave the country four years ago by an immigration judge who rejected her request for asylum from her native Kenya. The woman, Zeituni Onyango, is living in public housing in Boston and is the half-sister of Obama's late father.

1/2 sister 1/2 brother 1/2 mother 1/2 father......quite a family heritage these 1/2 Hawians have

If zero refunded her $260 donation that would get her 1/2 way back to Kenya.

“It was not immediately clear how Onyango might have qualified for public housing with a standing deportation order.”

She is the auntie of a DEMOCRAT SENATOR.... thats how. This needs full investigation and disclosure.

AUNTIEGATE.

Well, he’s just so busy knowing a gazillion things that are not true, he can’t be expected to know anything about his own aunt living in Boston.

But if he had taken some notice of his auntie, who he wrote so glowingly about in one of this books, he might have noticed that she’s been living in public housing and in need of family help.

OK, serious question:

How do you think this will play in the court of public opinion?

Post your reply and make your prediction: is this a net loss for Obama, a net gain, or a wash?

Once again, The Boston Globe Democrat is right on top of this story right in their own backyard, literally in the backyard of the Globe offices...do they look like a bunch of idiots now!! Not that they had far to go. That paper isn’t good enough for my dog to pee on.

Massachusetts is paying for so much right now. Thank You Ted Kennedy, the architect of immigration.

It took the TIMES OF LONDON to dig this story up. It was an Italian Newsweekly that found Obama’s poor brother.

The two best questions asked of Obama were asked by a plumber and a construction work - Tito the builder. Shame on the MSM. Shame on Brokaw, and Charles Gibson, and all of them...


Yestereday Rush (IIRC) ran clips of Brokaw and some other guy talking about how little they know of Obama's foreign policy.

That was scary. And they -- Brokaw and the other guy -- were basically admitting that the MSM had failed in fully vetting Obama.

If the MSM do get Obama in the White House, they may regret it.

This entire election is actually a test of the Collective IQ of the American voter, being conducted by the Space Aliens that put our species on this planet.

They have long suspected that, due to in-breeding, the American gene pool may be developing a higher-than-acceptable percentage of dysfunctional morons. But how to prove it?

They came up with a very simple test that involved an equally simple, binary choice: this election.

On the one hand a Vietnam War Hero with a long history of public service, and his running mate: an experienced Governor and former mayor with an 80% approval rating in her home state.

On the other hand, an inexperienced Senator who may/may not be entitled to run for President, who is probably a muslim, who certainly hangs around with dodgy characters, who is certainly a Socialist and about whom little material fact is known, and his running mate: a fairly bland fellow indeed about whom nobody cares to know much.

What the American voting public DON’T know is that after this election the Space Aliens intend to cull you lot, based upon how you voted.

Choose wisely!

For a person who is going to save us all, for the "annoited one" [NOT!], you sure don;t know much about your own kin...particularly when they are hard up and in need of YOUR help.

Let me ask you, Barry, do you know if your illegal alien aunt is registered to vote here in America? Huh?

The question in my mind is whether BHO, himself, is living here legally.

He doesn't know. It's above his pay grade.

Obama needs to pay back the American taxpayers that have been supporting this woman living here illegally and stealing money.
