WASHINGTON (CNN) – A Democratic lawmaker on Saturday asked Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff to investigate a leak to reporters regarding the immigration status of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's aunt, suggesting the Bush administration may have been behind it.
"I was startled to read in today's Associated Press that a 'federal law enforcement official' has leaked information about an immigration case involving a relative of Senator Obama," said a letter sent to Chertoff by Rep. John Conyers, D-Michigan, who chairs the House Judiciary Committee.

“until a FOREIGN newspaper dug it up”
One of the commenters at the link stated that the London paper was owned by Murdoch(sp?), and that it was well-known for taking stories that evil Republicans wanted to sneak into the news through the back door.????
Bite me, Conyers.
That’s a great point.
Hey Conyers, put some ice on it!
Holy cow, your kidding me.
Be afraid be, very afraid, Obama as president could be even worse then I thought.
Only Maxine Waters keeps Conyers from being the biggest horse’s a$$ in the House.
I feel like I am in the twilight Zone,
I was startled to read that an illegal alien under court order for deportation is still in this country, receiving public assistance and living in subsidized public housing and donated to Obama's campaign, Rep. Conyers C-Michigan (C = Communist).
“I feel like I am in the twilight Zone.”
do dee do do... do dee do do [Twilight Zone Music]
deep do do... [the trouble Auntie Z is in]
Why would need to have been ‘leaked’? I’m sure many of her neighbors knew it, and someone said that Obama had mentioned her in one of his books.
If not that, then you might be even busier defending citizens charged with "Article 58's"
Pre-election: heavy breathing. Post-election: Federal prison. (If O wins.)
Conyers is racist for only acting to protect black candidates relative’s visa status. Where was he when Hillary’s passport was hacked into?
f'em
The black little racist can kiss my white ass. Why doesn’t he demand why the information was kept from the people.
“when Conyers starts pushing reparations. Going to put President 0bama in a bind”
In the recently uncovered radio interview, Obama proposed “reparative redistribution”. Reparative means reparations.
They are on the same page. Conyers is just a bigger extortionist than Obama.
But he couldn’t give a damn about who leaked classified story information to the NYT time after time, after time.
...and considers Woodward and Bernstein national heroes for the Pentagon Papers story.
Sad but true. The Sunday talk shows won’t even mention this story, they will be too busy talking about what a drag Palin is on the GOP ticket and how all Republicans hate her.
And...find out how Auntie, an illegal immigrant got a job with the Boston Housing Authority! (Many reports are leaving out that important fact...including, naturally, Google's post on their site about it!)
Who didn't require any proof of citizenship, or a green card, or what is NOW required of a foreigner in order to get a job here?
Or did she also have a FAKE ID and driver's license?
Who slipped up? Who ignored the laws? Who pulled strings so this woman was working for a city agency?
She has a government job and is still getting welfare, and all the "entitlements" probably. Is her salary that low? Does she have a large family of illegals stowed away in her house in Boston who are getting welfare, too?
This story is going to have more "roots" than have surfaced so far.
