President Barack Obama's aunt, a Kenyan immigrant who ignited controversy last year for living in the United States illegally, has returned to her quiet apartment in a Boston public housing project to prepare for an April 1 deportation hearing that will be closed to the public.
Zeituni Onyango, a tall, frail-looking woman in her late 50s who walks with a cane, had fled Boston to stay with relatives in Cleveland last fall after media attention erupted over her case. She was spotted at Obama's inaugural festivities in January and, according to neighbors, returned to Boston a few weeks ago for her third attempt to fight removal from the United States. She had been living in the country illegally since she was ordered deported in 2004.
Now the woman Obama called "Auntie Zeituni" and described as a kindly woman who kissed him on both cheeks and guided him during his trip to Kenya 20 years ago, is in a national spotlight, where her case is seen as a test of the Obama admin istration's commitment to enforcing immigration laws. Critics, outraged that she is living in taxpayer-funded public housing while thousands of citizens and legal immigrants are on waiting lists, are scrutinizing the case for political favoritism. Others caution that she may have legitimate grounds to stay in the United States.

They all do.
Cry me an effing river. Kick her ass out! She is here ILLEGALLY!
I’m with you!
Kick Zeituni’s patootie out!
Notice how the city kept the apartment vacant for her the last 6 months, when there is a waiting list for public housing. Probably had it painted and the carpet replaced as a welcome home gesture.
Well, hell, now we know the real reason Janet Napolitano was so upset with ICE for doing their sworn duty and upholding the Federal immigration laws passed by the U.S. Congress.
Or is he the only one? ***snort***
I don’t which one would cause me to lose more respect for Obama, sacrificing his aunt for political expediency, or engaging in nepotism by allowing her to stay....
all she needs is a relative to sponsor her and pledge she won’t be a public burden.
Doesn’t she have a rich nephew at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?
she'll be placed on the bottom of the pile for the next 4-8 years.
Shame on you, it's well known she threw her back out putting a tire around a political opponent's neck.
She’s ILLEGAL on the DOLE.....she is getting OUR MONEY!! OMG! The world is so upside down.
Yeah, but a look at the nephew’s tax returns indicates he’s not willing to share with others.
How is she going to claim that? She is already a public burden.
Oh, shades of "Uncle Tom's Cabin"
As most Libs do, BO expects the taxpayers to take care of any indigent relative he has, legal or illegal.
“If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.” (I Timothy 5:8).
