Obama Campaign to Return Aunt's Donations

Updated 1:01 p.m. By Matthew Mosk The campaign of Sen. Barack Obama will refund a small number of contributions made by Obama's aunt, who has been living in the United States illegally, according to a published report.

The woman, Zeituni Onyango, lives in public housing in Boston and is the half-sister of Obama's late father.

The Associated Press reported today 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.

Obama campaign reports filed with the Federal Election Commission show Onyango gave $265 to the campaign. Foreign nationals are not permitted to donate to American presidential campaigns.

I want to know if she is registered to vote! That would be the best of all of this if she was registered by Acorn.

Of course he is... now that he got caught. How long has she been donating illegally?! That should be the story. Along with the other 200+ million in donations that he’s received illegally.

How about they help become legal or help her leave the country? Guess that’s above the O’s paygrade.

I’m sure Oprah will help her out though.
