Obama Illegal Alien Uncle Won’t Get Special Treatment, White House Says Friday, September 02, 2011 By Fred Lucas

(CNSNews.com) – President Barack Obama’s uncle, facing deportation for being in the country illegally, will not be treated differently than anyone else under U.S. laws, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told CNSNews.com on Thursday.

“I would refer you to ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] and DHS [Department of Homeland Security]. It will be handled like any other immigration case,” Carney said.

CNSNews.com also asked, “Was the president aware that his uncle was in the United States as an undocumented immigrant?” But before the question was completely asked, Carney interjected, saying President Obama “was made aware of this issue when I walked into his office and, among other subjects, mentioned it to him and he was completely unaware.”

Carney apparently was speaking in reference to when the president first learned of his uncle's arrest. Carney did not say whether the president knew his uncle was in the United States illegally.

What does this mean?

Stanley Armour Dunham and Auntie Zeituni hooking up for a ronatic interlude perhaps and then being punished with a baby?

Better still, The One will create a special post for his illegal alien uncle — the Secrary of the Department of Wandering Around and pay him $200,000.

Hey, I would use my power to help a family member. Of course, if I were a millionaire, creating tens of thousands of jobs, my family would not be living in section 8 housing...just saying.

Obama Illegal Alien Uncle Won’t Get Special Treatment

Somehow the last word in the headline, "Anymore," was dropped.

“he was completely unaware.”

“”I read this to mean the President is completely clueless/uninformed about what’s going on in America (I’m guessing at least half the population knew of this arrest) OR his spokespeople are big fat liars. Either possibility works for me: neither casts Obama in a particularly flattering light.””

The first part of your statement is how I read it...We don’t need Carney to tell us.. Only he is unaware his boss is clueless.....

“I bet the uncle knows where Obama was born.”

I’m not sure if Uncle Omar knows where Barry was born, but I’m sure he knows that the two of them are NOT related.

And who he really is or is not. It ain’t just location that’s a black hole.

I don't know, but it sure is a strange way to speak of a nephew.

Probably means nothing - I’m sure he’s not a blood relative of any of them anyway. In a real family tribal kind of relationship any of the next generation even if not actual offspring, but nephews etc could be called children. Adults sometimes address children not their own as “son” or “child”.

But she’s saying it just to keep the mythology going. Probably letting Zero know she’s not revealing anything, too.

The media would be all over this if it was Bush’s uncle?
