The American Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, considered by some to be one of the most wanted terrorists behind Usama bin Laden, was educated in the United States with taxpayers money, an ongoing Fox News investigation has found....A spokesperson at Colorado State University confirmed that Awlaki listed himself as an international student during his years there..."I traveled to New Mexico. I went through the Bureau of Vital Statistics records and secured his birth certificate," Fournier told Fox News.

Hmmm, so scholarships were available to non-U.S. cit's and that a Univ. can and will confirm international status. I wonder if there is anyway to get a listing of the scholarship recipients who attended Occidental from 1979-1981. Can we find out if Occidental will confirm or deny Obama's (Sotero, Dunham) nationality status while attending OU?

Why is a state university giving taxpayer money to a non-citizen?

"...A spokesperson at Colorado State University confirmed that Awlaki listed himself as an international student during his years there. The school would not comment on his financial records citing privacy issues...."

Of course this begs the question as to why we as taxpayers pay to educate foreigners in the first place.

We need to get this under control! We’re being sucked dry by anyone and everyone. Let us make bipartisan like the word racist, it is time we took control back and push these cesspool dwellers back to the leech field

Jimmy Carter is why. Texas was forced to give free education to illegals that crossed the border daily, to go to school.

Or feed them, house them (like Obama's auntie) provide free medical care, educate their children, incarcerate many of them, provide translators......

Yes, it’s a shame that 8 years of the White House and control of congress for the republicans didn’t do a thing to change it, just made it worse.
