It is inappropriate for ICE to...

Barack Obama's popularity can be gauged by the growing desperation with which his enemies are fighting him. A self-appointed individual (DineshD'Souza) is busy collecting money to lift one of Barack's Kenyan siblings [George Hussein Onyango Obama] out of poverty. (whereas hunger is rasping millions of other Kenyans), to "rescue" Obama's half-brother from "misery" in a Nairobi slum. First, to live in a slum isn't necessarily to be a pauper. I know individuals with lots of money who live permanently in such areas.

President Obama’s illegal-alien uncle met yesterday with federal immigration officials, who say they’re pressing ahead with his deportation as he prepares his legal fight to stay in the country. *snip* Pursuant to this meeting, Mr. Onyango will be required to check in regularly with immigration officials pending his removal.

*snip* A police officer said (((Onyango))) Obama made a rolling stop at a stop sign and nearly caused his cruiser to crash into Obama's sport utility vehicle.

A judge is expected to hear arguments Thursday on a motion to suppress statements he made to police and the test results.

I’m glad I thought to ask Mitt that question about Uncle Omar – that headline looks great on the Drudge Report this afternoon. “Romney: I’d Deport Obama’s Uncle" It was a no-brainer. I was just surprised he didn’t know who I was talking about at first. I understand that he wouldn’t read Barack’s narcissistic memoirs, but hey, Uncle Omar’s been in the Boston papers for months now. This is the kind of red meat Republican primary voters want. The reason Gov. Rick Perry dropped like a stone in the polls last fall wasn’t so much that he had that brain...

President Obama’s illegal alien half-uncle argued in court today his arrest on a drunken driving charge this summer violated his constitutional rights and he wants evidence suppressed and the case thrown out. Onyango Obama’s lawyer filed a motion to suppress in Framingham District Court today, claiming he questions the legality of the illegal alien’s Aug. 24 arrest on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol and whether the arrest violated Obama’s Fourth Amendment rights against unlawful search and seizure.

President Barack Obama's uncle is expected to appear in a Massachusetts court on a drunken driving charge.

The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee said Friday that President Obama’s half-uncle, an illegal immigrant who was picked up but has reportedly been released from jail, appears to have benefited from the new “backdoor amnesty” the administration announced last month. “It appears there is a double standard — one for President Obama’s family and one for everyone else,” Rep.

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Ma.) said Tuesday that Onyango Obama, President Barack Obama's long-lost uncle, should be deported from the United States after being arrested last week on drunk driving charges.

President Obama’s uncle will fight deportation to his native Kenya, one of his lawyers said yesterday, because he has lived in the United States for nearly 50 years and now considers it his home. Onyango Obama, 67, a half-brother of the president’s father, has turned to the same law firm that helped his younger sister, Zeituni Onyango, overturn a deportation order and win asylum in Boston last year. Obama was last ordered deported in 1992, but he remained in the United States until Framingham police arrested him last week on drunken-driving and other charges. “He does want to stay,’’ said...
