No wonder Obama has been trying to ignore his Aunt Zeituni and sweep her story under a rug. She’s an illegal.
Barack Obama’s aunt, a Kenyan woman who has been quietly living in public housing in Boston, is in the United States illegally after an immigration judge rejected her request for asylum four years ago, The Associated Press has learned.
Zeituni Onyango, 56, referred to as “Aunti Zeituni” in Obama’s memoir, was instructed to leave the United States by a U.S. immigration judge who denied her asylum request, a person familiar with the matter told the AP late Friday. This person spoke on condition of anonymity because no one was authorized to discuss Onyango’s case.
Information about the deportation case was disclosed and confirmed by two separate sources, one of them a federal law enforcment official. The information they made available is known to officials in the federal government, but the AP could not establish whether anyone at a political level in the Bush administration or in the McCain campaign had been involved in its release.
For five years, he’s ignored his family and the fact that she’s breaking the law. And this is the guy who will swear to uphold the Constitution and our laws, should he be elected to the presidency.
The irony is so thick, you can cut it with a knife.
Now one can reasonably ask if he will, before the election, agree to uphold the law and demand that she comply with the immigration judge’s order. Or will he push for a second layer of law and justice for his family?
