Throw Aunti from the bus
Over the weekend, the Associated Press reported that Barack Obama’s beloved Aunti Zeituni Onyango — a Boston public housing resident — was an illegal alien deportation fugitive who was ordered to leave the country by an immigration judge four years ago. Despite her illegal absconder status, she not only obtained federal housing benefits, but also illegally contributed to Obama’s campaign. Obama denies knowing about her illegal status and has promised to return her donations.
And now, Obama has gone and completely thrown Aunti under the bus — joining Obama’s poor grandmother. Via 24ahead, Obama was asked by Katie Couric if he supported the deportation of Onyango:
If she is violating laws those laws have to be obeyed. We’re a nation of laws. Obviously that doesn’t lessen my concern for her, I haven’t been able to be in touch with her. But I’m a strong believer you have to obey the law.
If he were telling the truth, I’d applaud him — and the Left would condemn him as a jack-booted racist.
But he’s lying — and all his cultists knows it.
In 2006, Obama marched shoulder-to-shoulder with illegal alien shamnesty activists in Chicago.
He supports driver’s licenses for illegal aliens.
And he said this:
We are not going to send [illegal aliens] home …Mr. Obama said many illegals have “settled,” “bought property” and have children who are U.S. citizens. He said the country would have to devote “all our law enforcement resources to rounding up people without papers, even if they weren’t causing any trouble,” and once that’s done, the country would have to “empty out our jails.” …That would force police to ignore killers and carjackers and instead be “worried about the guy in the kitchen somewhere who’s working in a restaurant… Not all of ‘em are from Mexico,” because some are from Ireland, Poland or Nigeria. …”Imagine what that would look like, basically detaining, putting in jail 12 million people. We’re not going to do that…”
He’s a diehard opponent of deportation — except if it embarrasses his campaign in the final hours before Election Day.
Obama politics as usual.
Lucky for Aunti, as I noted over the weekend, the open-borders Bush administration and skittish McCain campaign aren’t going to do anything about his duplicity.
Cowardice plus rank opportunism times political correctness = a lasting recipe for immigration chaos.

awww what a difference running for President makes. Hy.Po.Crite.
Obama consistently lies and throws people under the bus when the facts, his words, or his associations, get in the way of what is really important to him: his ambitions.
All the nice people that think Obama cares about them should look at how he treats his family, friends and “associates.”
And yes, you can deport 12 million or more illegals.
You start with one. How about Auntie?
Let’s recall that this is not the first time Barack Obama has thrown a relative under the bus. In his famous speech on race in Philadelphia, Obama likened his 85 year old white grandmother to Reverend Wright.He even said his grandmother made her own racist comments that were similar to what Wright had said. Obama could not give us any specifics because there were none. His grandmother obviously never said anything remotely comparable to the filth spewing from Jeremiah Wright. But nobody in the MSM ever asked Obama: “Give us the specifics of what your grandmother said about Black people that so upset you”. Instead, Chris Matthews said every student in American should study the speech. Charlie Gibson called the speech one of the most important speeches ever given. Gibson called it “estraordinary”. Katie Couric fought back the tears when she talked about “The Speech”.
How.Is.Grandma????
Obama’s hypocrisies are truly astounding!

Apparently much stronger – once Obama starting polling better!
It is more about the question asked than the answer given.
A large scale effort to round up millions of people, or deporting an individual when it becomes known that they are illegal?
I disagree with Sen Obama’s position on immigration. I disagree with Sen McCain’s position, too.
And, Pres Bush has not done well on the subject either. Heck, our rules, laws and regulations are pretty weak, too. Giving illegals court orders to return for a hearing? Please. Individual members of Congress can place an anonymous hold keeping an individual immigrant from being deported. Please.
Yeah, Sen Obama appears to be duplicitous, but it really is our system and making it work properly that is the real issue.
I get the distinct impression that this guy could take a dump on the American flag in the middle of Times Square and would not lose a single supporter.
Misscheryl, the tire marks have healed and the photo op was a dud. he just went to Hawaii to score some dope.
Auntie Obingo, has fresh tire tracks and is expected not to make it to election day.
I guess that nasty bump on the head from the tail pipe is better. Those typical white folks are pretty resilient.
Good way to make use of his 150k member national police/paramilitary force: throw everybody he doesn’t need for his purposes under the bus…or ground.
AJ – roflmao!!!!
So Obama doesn’t even have any loyality to his aunt. Wow.
How can anyone not see through this guy???
That Obama…he’s such a kidder!
…”Imagine what that would look like, basically detaining, putting in jail 12 million people. We’re not going to do that…”
ZOWIE!!! He better have a LARGE SIZED lift kit on that bus… It seems to be getting real CROWDED under there… Do you know the sad part of this story??? B. HUSSEIN made 4 million last year, and he has an aunt, one he used in his book, so he is very aware of her, and she is living in a SLUM PROJECT in Boston… This is a man that said in a speech, one of the greatest MORAL SHORTCOMINGS in this country, is how we do not take care of the poorest amongst us… WELL, this is one GUY who really ought to know about MORAL SHORTCOMINGS…
Exactly!!! Well said. I am tired of the false dichotomy nonsense of we only have the choice of depoting 30M illegals or giving them amensty. Bush used that to trick everyone into accepting amnesty. Neither is palatable. Simply eliminate
the magnets and they will leave and others will stop coming.
Like a lot of people that make out of the hood, they don’t look back. Brings back bad memories.
OT, but I hate that we are told this number constantly! If this is a correct number of illegals here, which I don’t believe for a second; then how on earth are there 5 million bad mortgages to Illegals? Almost half of all illegals own a house? And by law it is illegal for an illegal to own a house? I don’t get it?
I’ve said this before, I’ll reiterate. Oklahoma has cracked down on those who rent to illegals and those who hire illegals. The result is we don’t have too many illegals here anymore.
SIDE NOTE: I just walked past a TV here at work and noticed side-by-side views of McCain’s and Obama’s current stops. More people at Obama’s location.
Could it be that more McCain backers actually work jobs while Obama’s fans are never inconvenienced by a job or responsibilities? It explains their desperate push for socialism.
You may now return to the Aunt Illegal issue. Just one of many problems with Obama that the MSM doesn’t want to talk about.
Remember the contests to see how many people you could stuff in a VW?
Obama must have the Guiness World Record for most friends and relatives stuffed under a bus.
Wrong.
Everyone has the ability to answer any question truthfully. Obama decided to lie.
Gasp, you mean the system works when officials actually enforce the very laws they passed?
WHAT A CONCEPT!
What an honorable person would have done was hire A lawyer years ago to help out his aunt BEFORE she became illegal. Obama didn’t do that.
The wheels on the bus go thump, thump, thump. All through the town.
THAT is the point here. His aunt was a perfect example of someone who probably could have remained her as a legal immigrant and worked towards citizenship. She had American relatives here etc. etc. etc.
But our leaders chose to just ignore the very laws they themselves passed. It “FELT” better to ignore law and process. Doing that did the poor woman a lot of good didn’t it?
Obama is just being his selfish self. Just like not being there when his mother died.
My 2 cents, DROP THE SUBJECT. Going after an elderly woman will only backfire and generate sympathy for the Obamination.
“how’s grandma?”
well- she went from having 1 foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel to feeling just fine -especially after she heard that the Gov. sealed his records. hmmmmmmmmmmm. coincidence?
On November 3rd, 2008 at 10:12 am, 30 pcs of silver said:
Ha! ROFLMAO!
1) She’s 56. Since when is that “elderly?”
2) The subject is not about her willful defiance of a deportation order. It’s about willful non-enforcement by both political parties. It’s about Obama’s lies and the open-border GOP’s complicity. It’s about systemic political sclerosis and the consequences for the rule of law and national security.
flyoverman said: “THAT is the point here. His aunt was a perfect example of someone who probably could have remained her as a legal immigrant and worked towards citizenship.”
Incorrect. Overstaying your visa even for one day means immediate deportation and inability to return to the US for 10 year.
I want her to stay, please. I want aunti Z on the talk show circuit, ASAP.
So, my big question is…where is his uncle?
Washington enforcing the immigration laws? My god MRS Malkin, what were you thinking?
You humble servant, oh great hate tyrant, Darth Malkin.
BTW can we get another hate mailing? I love them. So irrational.
Seriously, this is just another example of his malignant narcissism. It’s all about him. This is a dangerous man. God help us if he wins.
Okay, I stand corrected about her age. But I still say DROP IT. I do not dispute how bad it ‘smells’, but it will be perceived as bullying a lone woman and will do more to generate sympathy votes for the Obamination than any Obamination political ad or GOP gaffe will ever do.
I’m not dropping anything!
Does anyone else think grandma may not make it to the election? That maybe we’ll find out sometime today or when we first wake up in the morning that she recently passed?
Please tell me BO’s not that cold and heartless.
Apparently she made a resounding recovery after the governor of Hawaii promised BHO that his birth records would be sealed and no one can get to them.
But Obama Trolls are so cute look at their photo.
http://rightwingchicky.wordpress.com/2008/11/02/so-the-goal-is-to-create-apathy/
Look familar Malkin Fans? lgm, I want to see a side by side comparison, I think this photo is lighted better.
Actually, I think you made my point. IF process had been enforced she would have been pursued, not just flagged, and been ordered out.
If these laws were routinely enforced she would not have ignored it. They are not enforced, so like most illegals, she knows it’s a sham so …. Even if ordered out she could have appealed and Obama could have been there for the appeal process.
Nope, nobody in authority did SQUAT, so things just festered.
“Perceived” by whom? I am done trying to reason with the left. I am done trying to spoon feed things so we won’t be considered “too conservative, unwilling to get along, judgemental, mean spirited..” I’m simply done trying to cowtow or cater to the left.
Perceived by those who are still hedging their bets/votes.
it will be perceived as bullying
This site and its namesake has been widely considered an unhinged bully since your schip madness. 12 year old boys, older women, why should it make a difference to you?
#32 “…rule of law…”
Nicely said, but amoral America doesn’t understand you. An Abomination in power could change that, though.
expat, you miss the point. Like myself, you may have spent too much time overseas to realize how much damage illegal immigration is destroying our country.
Any votes lost to poor auntie odinga can’t compare to the fraudulent mickey mouse mail in ballots that will be counted!
A PS to Misscheryl and others. If one adopts the taics of the Left, can you then look at yourself and say you are any different?
Just so you know, I do not care whose relative she is, based on what the Feds have not done to date, I think I would “reset the process clock,” not change her status yet, and cut the lady some slack.
The exception would be if she fraudulently obtained a Social Security card and was using it. That is a felony and should be pursued vigorously.
Listen, I am a legal immigrant who did everything right and got my citizenship by the book. If I can do it, there is no damn reason in the world Obama couldn’t have helped his aunt do it. I would help out my aunt if that is what she wanted, no problem. It isn’t about the aunt or her age. Does she get a pass because she is black?
Dear Aunti may be a pitiful women-that BroBama does not provide for her is shameful.
BUT SHE IS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN-ON WELFARE and symptomatic of a break down in law and order; she is a sign of more to come under either BroBama or the old white haired guy.
If we tell people they do not need to obey the immigration laws what about the laws on theft, robbery, rape and murder?
Is your water line is leaking you fix the water line–you don’t have empathy for the pipes.

That Every Man Be Armed–You Too ladies
I’m wondering if the latter means Obama will not order the deportation of criminal aliens (spare me the lecture on all illegals being criminals; you know what I’m talking about). As he is against “long prison sentences,” I suspect Obama would pardon more than all previous Presidents combined, including Weatherman/police murderer David Gilbert.
What is increasingly disturbing to me and it relates to his discussion on coal, immigration, any policy he communicates. He does so in such a way that it is as though he has sole ownership of this country and he will dictate policy and his actions back this up. The closer he gets to realizing his dream of the presidency, the more rigid and arrogant he becomes in presenting to America his goals for her.
Let’s be perfectly honest here… Obozo told some anecdotal stories about his Aunt in his book because it made him look sympathetic to his target readers. He doesn’t give a damn about her, or his brother, or YOU!!!! He is all political power, and he will hitch his wagon to ANY horse to reach his goal. Make no mistake here… he has the means to help his aunt, and he never once lifted a finger, EVER. He doesn’t need her, and he couldn’t care less about her.
As Larry Eagleburger stated this morning on FOX, this country is on the verge of electing a charlatan to the White House!!
…all about political power… obviously a bit caffeine deprived this fine morning…
If Obama wins, I guess someone needs to compile a list of the campaign promises and outlandish statements he’s made. A sort of “I told you so” to present to the liberals when they start pointing fingers at the conservatives in order to place blame. I gurantee you, they will do just that when many of the ideas they support go south.
We will need a running total of Obama’s
(1)Promises fulfilled
(2)Promises ignored
(3)Outright lies that are shown to be just that
(4)issues that end up 180 degree from his stated promises
Actually, the above is just a thought. The libs have no shame. They can be caught dead to rights in a lie with their own video/audio and they don’t even shrug. Neither does the MSM.
Do not ever drop this subject or any like it, keep the proverbial feet to the fire always and at every chance, Michelle. I’ll do likewise.
Oh how I dread tomorrow. The MSM is making its last push for Obama by publishing phony polls with Obama leading by over 10 points.
If it were up to me, I would ban all male immigrants from english speaking countries, including the Kiwis. Their charming accents and more developed sense of humor and culture put regular American guys at a huge disadvantage with the ladies at the discotheque.
And Icelanders because I don’t want my throat slit in the middle of the night.
yeah, those girlie men are such a turn on.
Now listen here you icelander…..
Oh forgot the ban avoiding
Maybe we could call it the Waffen? On second thought probably not as B. Hussein does not believe in the 2nd amendment.
Thanks, I think…
I knew that was going to bite me sonofdy…roflmao!
Don’t expect chappy to be concerned about this particular instance of law breaking. He’s too busy daydreaming about nailing Todd Palin for something or other.
The left are and always have been totalitarian thugs.
I think that SA (Sturmabteilung) is the more correct historical analogy.
I also hate his goatee. Dollars to doughnuts Todd once sported a mullet. Perhaps as recently as the early 90s.
It’s getting to the point where being ‘American’ to Obama only means you are either paying taxes or getting welfare.
Mr. Obama said on this morning’s news
“If she is violating laws those laws have to be obeyed. We’re a nation of laws…”
Does that seem odd to anyone else?
How has The One, not been in some sort of contact with her? You would think he would have his aides find out how to reach her.
Depends which nation he’s referring to.
If only he would apply this ideal to the rest of his fraudulant campaign
Hey Laree, i liked your link. Yahoo’s homepage is running a story today preparing people for a McCain win. Everyone check out her link and make sure to vote and get the word out.

Laree…I found something similar on the Stephanopolos site in the comments. I posted it up at my site.
OT, we just got the results of our mock election put on by and for the students. Students voted overwhelmingly for McCain.
Smart Kids.
I think I mentioned on the other thread, that only Obama could possibly get away with all of this. Only he could claim to care so much about the “Middle Class” and all those poor people sleeping in the streets. So many, by the sound of his speeches, that it is a wonder that we are not tripping over them when we walk, yet he has so many of his very own family members…including his favorite aunt, who live so far below the poverty line as to redefine what poverty is.
If that is the way he treats his own family, not to mention the way he treats his friends, spiritual advisers, people he claims to be closer than family, etc., etc., etc., then why are so many people putting so much of their hopes and dreams into the thought that he will take such good care of them, let alone this country?
Hell, he already has thrown the military under the bus, the Constitution under the bus…in fact, he already threw the COUNTRY under the bus. What else is there? No thnaks. With friends and family members like him, who needs Islam?

Red State Update “Obama’s Aunt”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-TLRM1vUTY&feature=channel
I noticed Obama made a comment about prop 8, some of the news sources have prop 8 evenly devided 48% to 48%. Could Obama be a little worried that California will not be a blowout? He said he is not for gay marriage but says no on 8. Nice non-answer there. The polls are lies, Obama camp is worried, I think we are going to keep this guy out of office.
It’s unfortunate that the bus she’s thrown under is not the Straight Talk Express. That bus is apparently swerving all over the road to avoid Aunti Z.
How is it that a paper in London has no trouble locating Auntie, but her nephew, who wrote about her in his book, can’t find her? I call B.S.
And what’s a woman in subsidized housing doing with an extra $260 to give away? Obama should refund the money to the taxpayers she’s ripping off.
Just another example of immigration gone wrong, except its with Oblahma’s aunt this time.
I’m moving past the idea of him throwing them under a bus. At this point, its just a steamroller.
Illegal alien, lost her court case, out she goes. That we are paying for her public housing and welfare is ridiculous. Out.
The haircut, the fish, or both?
The support of marriage being between a man and a woman in this state, California, has already gone before the population in an election, and almost three quarters of this state was AGAINST same-sex marriage.
But that was not good enough for the rabble-rousers. See, as far as Liberals are concerned, they are all about screaming of their imaginary lost rights, about how elections are stolen, about how the people are kept from having their voices heard etc., yet in California, when the Liberals lose an election of a Proposition which they disagree with, rather than allowing the people to have their say, they instead turn to the courts and have it legislated against.
THis happened with Prop. 187, which won by a HUGE margin, and it will happen with Prop. 8
Prop.8 will win, regardless of the truthlessness of the campaign against it, but it will not matter. Before the election results have been certified, they will have their army of lawyers descend upon the courts here and have injunction after injunction placed on it, forcing the Uber-Left ideals upon the populace, regardless of what happens in the election.
As it is, anyone with “Yes on *” signs in their yards end up having them stolen, and at the stands placed at the local WalMart, the people supplying “Yes on *” and “McCain/Palin” paraphanalia are assaulted repeatedly by Democrat and Liberal thugs, to the point that the local police have been called out repeatedly to remove said offenders.
This is their view of a “Democracy”. If it is their cause, you better vote for it. If it is not, no matter, they will win in the courts and flip the bird to the people.
Aunti Z will get her green card if Obama wins tomorrow. I’m fairly certain he’ll hand it out at his victory rally.
Of course, if Obama loses, she’ll get it anyway–it just won’t happen with such speed.
in one of the most clairvoyant cogent remarks of the 1992 campaign, ross perot said of bill clinton “if his own wife can’t trust him how do you think you can trust him?” the msm didn’t pay any attention. now the same msm isn’t concerned when obama says he is going to fix the lives of america’s poor, because he feels for his own family and the poorest of the people, yet he hangs with the richest in chicago politics, Rezco, wright, emmanuel, and doesn’t send a dime to his own family in africa or boston. he criticises mccain’s wife for having so many houses because she has given houses to several members of her extended family. what a christian.
I’m thinking the business-up-front-party-in-the-back type.
And I don’t know about mullet the fish, but I am telling you McCain/Palin still has a chance to win my vote if she shows up at a rally carrying a salmon.
Maybe Obama would like to spread some of HIS wealth around and support his “beloved” aunt, instead of having the taxpayers do it. On second thought, she’s supposed to be deported. Hmmm. What’s the chance of THAT happening? About the same as Obama spreading HIS personal wealth around. Damned hypocrites.
Now, now. Obama wouldn’t throw anyone under bus. He doesn’t drive a bus. He went to Columbia and Harvard so he wouldn’t have to. That’s what “lower” people are for- just like Aunti. remember- Obama is a socialist.
This man is a typical communist. Follow laws my foot.
A BHO administration would be worse in enforcing laws than the Clinton’s Attorney General was. Except for forcing a little boy back to communist Cuba, and burning down and killing hundreds of innocent children in Waco, TX.
I think that I’ll marry my car so that my medical insurance will pay for a new transmission.
