And While We’re At It, Here’s That Ugly Sweater You Gave Me for Christmas in 1994
As we reported early this morning, Sen. Barack Obama’s long-lost half-aunt Zeituni Onyango had given $265 in small increments, likely illegal given her immigration status.
In light of her newly-discovered illegal status, the Obama campaign is returning the money.

Jake,
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but a lot of the posters still think Obama is a Muslim and doesn’t celebrate Christmas.
And they’re probably the only ones who care about this non-issue too..

This points to two aspects of the Obama that we know. One is that the campaign most likely has illegal donations from foreign nationals. Second is that Obama does not take care of his family – grandmother, brother, aunt. This just looks like punk behavior.

This is the end of the road for Obama and my aunt and uncle. It seems that many are coming to their senses. Obama supporters are delusional and in the face of all evidence pointing to him being an awful choice as president, they will still support him no matter what.
Obama is simply a hypocrite and too dangerous. Chicago has toppped all cities with 432 murders this year, Illinois has the highest sales and property taxes, poor school system yet no one looks into Obama’s state records because he refuses to release them.
he claims not to know Ayers yet evens this LA Time tape once again has him with Ayers.

I find it deplorable that this poor woman has been exposed simply because she is soem distant relative to Obama. Has the media no scruples at all? This woman’s life could be in danger as a result of this. We are not responsible for our distant relatives..or even immediate family for that matter. The story on Cindy McCains half sisters was off limits as well…but for the fact that one of her half sisters went public on her own. Lets use more ethical standards as journalists folks!!
Posted by: Dee | November 1, 2008, 3:12 pm 3:12 pm
How sad that this poor woman gave The One $265. He should help her financially not the other way around. I thought he was the champion of the underprivileged?
Posted by: Thom | November 1, 2008, 3:14 pm 3:14 pm
In response to “today’s” posting. You feel that he should be taking care of his late father’s half sister who he’s only seen a few times in his lifetime? He only saw his father once after he abandoned his family when he was 2. Do your homework before you post!

There was a lack of ethical standards when the Obamabots hacked into Sarah Palin’s email, and dug through Joe the Plumber’s personal records with government employees???

But the irony is Obama respond to the news…he did not know she was illegal. hmm..
he did not know Rev, Wright was radical
he did not know Ayers was terrorist and when he found out, he was only 8 years old
he did not know Rezko was in trouble
interesting?

The bottom line is this, in the voting booth…no one will see the lever/button they pull/push. Even a sponge dries out after a bit. No true, loyal American will vote for a lying, two-faced, terrorist abiding, Marxist, closet racist.

Since the “McCain” supporters already have the wealth, and don’t want Obama to give them anymore, how about we just spread it around to those unemployed, in foreclosure and families destroyed by McCain and his DC buddies?? What no McCain supporters who lost their jobs? Don’t know someone in foreclousre? Oh yeah, it is all about you!!!

GOP ers are so funny. This woman was his ESTRANGED FATHERS HALF SISTER, hasn’t seen her in over 4 years and hadn’t heard from her in over 2 years. She is currently in violation of a civil not criminal order. Using this logic I guess that John Mccain’s brother calling 911 and swearing at the operator because of heavy traffic should preclude John Mccain’s presidency. I’ll tell you one family member that does bother me is Todd Palin. How is it he can co-govern with Sarah Palin in Alaska and no one has a problem with it. How can he get away with being a AIP member for seven years but we are to just ignore that. How about the fact that he was given access to personnel files that likely included medical and financial information. This is in violation of our HIPPA laws.

Let’s see…he didn’t hear Wright’s comments after 20 years in the church; he didn’t know of Ayers terrorist past when he first met him; he had no idea Rezko was making deals and getting kickbacks; and know he didn’t know his aunt was here illegally for four years. He is either no family man, which contradicts those self-indulgent memoirs, or he knew. Want to take a guess?
America’s ability to believe anything Obama says is like a mother in denial over her child’s drug use: she keeps believing him and keeps giving him money even though evidence to the contrary is staring her in the face.
Let’s not be the parent in denial on Nov. 4.

Shows Obama will take anyones money.
The man thinks he is above all.
He has done so many unethical things, and walks.
The money from Rezko he laundered it.
Money From foreigners he takes and redistributes it.
He takes money from fictitious names. Even when the money is from a gift credit card giving money under different names from supposedily different cities.
He had Foreigners make his recruit and fund rasing phone calls.
He lies about his family and friends and got caught in them.
No morales, No Ethics, No Honor.
You have to be out of your mind, or Brainwashed to vote for him.
That is beyond scary.

What about the more than 200,000 fake internet donors to obama?? what happen to that story?? is he going to return those monies?? Nothing, I mean Nothing about obama is clear. His associations and his stances are shady and unclear. We know of his associations but don’t know exactly he deeply he’s involved with them. Not only he changed his positions but also voted more than half time “Present”. And now it looks like he’s going to win so I guess big monies can buy you votes. Also, I cannot believe the American would vote for a guy who has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for this country (whose father is not even an American) and rejected a guy who, whose grandfather, father and son fought/fight, suffered and died for this country because he’s old and not as a good talker. There’s no appreciation towards those who suffered for us just like the way people don’t ever show respect for old people. I’ve never seen any country in the world that treat their elderly like the Americans.

I keep ranting about it, but I am sick and tired of inexperienced, Obama MALE, hot shot schmoozer being promoted ahead of serious, hard-working, knowledgeable people. I have watched this happen in the corporate world.
Once again this story about his aunt, it still shocks me on several levels. First, the media has ignored this.The LA Times is suppressing information to cover for Obama. Second, the Democratic leaders who saw Obama pull these stunts still preferred him to the incredibly prepared Hillary.

First Obama did not know that Rev. Wright was a hate filled racist…..and Bill Ayers was “just another guy in the neighborhood”. This is just another example of Obama either being the most unaware person on the face of the earth, or just a bold faced liar. Who really cares anyway. My party sold their soul to the slickster long ago, nothing really phases me anymore about this guy. But I do know that when his lips move he is probably lying…

That’s the thing Obama was not properly vetted by the DNC. This is a person that was in the senate for only 143 days before he decided to run for office. Clearly he put his career aspirations before the people of Illinois who elected him.
I think a lot of voters who still do not know what they will do when they go to vote may end up just not casting a vote for president – there is nothing that says we HAVE to vote.
My state will more than likely remain blue but I have to vote for McCain so that I can at least assure myself that I did the right thing. Not voting, or voting a third party, IMHO is no longer an option. This will be a close race in many states and sitting back, no matter for what reason, is not going to help.
I know we are encouraged to vote our consciences but this vote is a matter of life or the loss of democracy.

Unless you have been living in a bubble for the last 20 months, Obama has made it clear that he has not get in touch with his father’s side of the family. This information will either give you an excuse to vote for McCain or you will see it as yet another attempt to distract us from the issues.

When are the Obama fans going to realize that they have been taken in by the biggest con man in modern history? Aided and abetted by the morally bankrupt David Axelrod and company, this perfect storm of hatred for George Bush and all things Republican has converged to make America blind to this man’s shortcomings. Does he believe some of the things he says? Yes, I think he does. But he will say anything (read: carefully crafted and controlled message) to get elected. I think I might just drop dead to think that Americans would find a presidential election infomercial even slightly acceptable! Yes, you were dumb enough to vote for GWB twice (NOT ME!!) you are dumb enough to elect this figment of his own imagination to the presidency. I am a Hillary Dem who now knows that he robbed her of the nomination, and will never vote for him EVER.

Obama is the most “I didn’t know” person to run for President…ever…
“I didn’t know that Bill Ayers was a territost”
“I didn’t know Rev. Wright is a racist and said awful things about America”
“I didn’t know that my Aunt (who I asked to visit me) was living here illegally and living on public assistance”
“I didn’t know Tony Rezko was a crook when he donated to my campaign”
“I didn’t know how to vote on issues put before me…. so I just voted present”.
Posted by: MaryD | November 1, 2008, 4:36 pm 4:36 pm
Joe Biden is right on…McCains campaign has used deplorable tactics. They are even resorting to Rev. Wright again. I guess McCain does not care that he is further dividing the country. “Country First”..my butt!! His only concern is winning! How sad that a man who was viewed as honourable & a true reformer would stoop to the level of personal attacks. Obama has never used persoanl attacks…only attacked on policies as it should be! McCain will go down losing his honour.But,that was his choice to make.
And the media reporting on his distant relative,his aunt, only fuels the personal attacks even further. Hasnt this man endured enough personal attacks folks! Or do you want him to lose as a result of your buying into the Republican personal smears??

Good try. Doesn’t fly. Here’s why:
Civil Rights Attorney: Class of ’91
University of Chicago Law School, Educator of Constitutional Law: 12 Years
Illinois State Senator: 8 Years
U.S. Senator: 3 Years
Committees: Foreign Relations; Environment and Public Works; Veterans’ Affairs; Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions; and Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
Official Travel: Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa.
Obama has sponsored 136 bills since Jan 4, 2005, 2 have become law.This figure does not include bills to which Obama contributed very substantially as cosponsor, such as the Coburn-Obama Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 or the Lugar-Nunn Cooperative Proliferation Detection, Interdiction Assistance, and Conventional Threat Reduction Act of 2006.

ziadora,
Obama has bigger problems than a Hillary supporter like me.
Have you seen the petition floating around by an early voter?
He is asking that Obama not be allowed to take any oath of office until he provides a photostatic copy of the birth certificate.
Not a lot to ask.
He is angry at the candidate and himself, for his buying into the early voting process, before learning that Obama was denying press their Consitutional right.
He said he didn’t want the first man of his race in the Whitehouse to be a snake,because Obama has filed a court document to not allow American citizens to question him in several states , yet had no time to file paperwork for an Auntie he lies about on his very expensive Obama TV network .
The man didn’t want Obama removing any of his Constitutional rights or to try to break the document.
Sorry,
I listened to about half of his issues about why we standing in a coffee line should sign it.
Tell us why we should find credibility in Obama now?
A Nation without enforced law is a Nation of Chaos.
Posted by: woman citizen | November 1, 2008, 4:38 pm 4:38 pm
See, I have this funny little belief that the person who occupies the White House should not have close friends that include hate-mongering preachers (Jeremiah Wright, Michael Pfleger), convicted felons (Anthony Rezko), domestic terrorists who try to overthrow the American government (William Ayers and Bernadine Dorn). I don’t think he should stand up at a dinner and make speeches in support of middle-eastern terrorist groups or change positions on FISA, NAFTA, off-shore drilling, the SCOTUS decision on guns, or public campaign financing.
No, we Democrats don’t see anything in Obama that is remotely Democrat. So it’s really OK with us if there isn’t a “democrat” in the White House this time.
I am voting for McCain

Is there anything the Obama campaign does to make sure their donations are legal?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, back end checks. But here is someone they knew was here illegally and they took her money. Until they got caught.
Another fine example of his new kind of democracy.

ziadora,
Hillary did have her opponents fully vetted. Women are not stupid.
When women were not given a voice on the Convention floor, it didn’t mean the work done went away.
The photostatic copy dear …not the manipulated many times piece of crap on the aobama website.
That one was checked out by a forensic investigator who found it to be a fraud.
Hence the whole exposure began.

I had an Obamabot approach me last night ato comment on my Hillary “For everybody who’s ever been counted out…” T-Shirt. She was excited that I was an “Obama supporter” too.
I said “what the hell would make you think that I support Barack Obama?” and she pointed to my T-shirt. I shook my head. I showed her my PUMA bracelet and asked if she’d ever heard of PUMA — she said she hadn’t. I asked if she had a computer (she did) and I told her to go home and google “PUMA” to find out whether I was voting for Obama.

Mara, I’m sorry but your posting does not make good sense. Facts the story was about Obama’s Aunt. By the way he did not know her status. Just as he did not know the preaching of Wright after attending the Church for 20 years, he(Obama) did not know about Ayers even after he kicked off in Ayers home. Then there’s the case of the other guy that is in jail now, which Obama does not know why. Obama does not explain he and Sen Dodd receiving alot of money from Fannie Mac, then hiting the ceo after Fannie Mac went defunk. I could go on and on. Do we want a President with a memory span of seconds.?????? Now if you want to discuss Mccain that’s another memo, one point I would like to make. ABC is having a cow because Palin has not released her Medical Records, Why didn’t ABC or any other News Media have a cow over Bill Clinton who to my knowledge has NEVER released his medical reords. We don’t have a news outlet other than FOX News and CNN that is trustworthy today. Mara maybe you should check some facts before you post meaniless notes.

My cousin’s house (in a red state) has been canvassed twice by Obama supporters. The first time they were looking for her sister and she let him know that she was an undecided voter (she was debating at the time). Today they stopped by and her sister was home and she informed them herself that she would not vote for Obama and also let them know that she appreciated their canvassing work because our whole family had been out knocking on doors for Hillary. The stupid Obama supporter tried to get into it with her – if you supported Hillary, you have to support Obama – and she wasn’t having any of it!

Re: “Have you typed in Wendy Button and read her formal statements yet?”
I just read them. I disagree with her. Attacking Joe the Plumber is not an attack on all working people, as Joe the Plumber does not represent all working people. He’s a gimmick. He now has an agent and is trying to break into the entertainment industry.
As for Palin, she lowered the political discourse by saying that “Obama pals around with terrorists.” Palin was trying to paint Obama as a Scary Foreigner, and herself as a Real American. She was trying to appeal to the Republican party’s historical fear and loathing of non-white people and immigrants. She wanted people to tranfer that fear and hate onto Obama.
Furthermore, anyone who enters national politics, ought to have an education and some preparation. A candidate who cannot answer simple questions about policy has no business on the ticket. Newsflash: If you make stupid comments, people will call you stupid! That’s not sexism. Just ask Dan Quayle and Dubya.

They have to be ready to be in LBJ’s shoes when all of the advisors run, leaving him holding their bad advice.

Posted by: woman citizen | November 1, 2008, 6:37 pm 6:37 pm
I’m being serious when I say that it’s a beautiful testimony of Obama’s family love.
Consider the aunt of Obama. She’s in poverty. She lives in public housing. It’s like the famous “widow’s mite” that out of her poverty in love and support for her nephew, she gave over several months in small increments out of her meager means… a total of $260. That sure looks like a person showing their heart… especially in love for family.
It’s not such a great reflection on Obama. He has means. He has connections. I just would think he could help her with employment, housing, her immigration status,… something. In the larger scheme of him not giving to her out of his abundant and wealth… well, where is the compassion?? He didn’t know about his aunt. (Like he didn’t know Ayers was a US terrorist, etc.) Let’s just add this to the “I didn’t know” list. You know what I think the “I didn’t know” list really stands for in “code words”?? “I don’t care.”
It’s proven now that people who are not citizens of the US have their campaign contributions accepted by their systems. But the system was set up for that to happen. Obama says, “I didn’t know.” Obama didn’t care that the law was being broken,

McCain supporters: You are setting yourselves up for an easy Obama win in 2012 (should he win this year).
As soon as he proves not to be the devil during his first term, all of you will look like fools and your future attacks will look like crazy rantings.
My advice: come up with some actual policies that you can run on / be proud of. More than anything, McCain’s weakness this election has been his inability to articulate policies that are attractive to voters. Whether you agree with Obama or not, a tax cut for 95% of working Americans is an attractive policy to the majority of the electorate.

Not mainstream for too many biases, is just part of what his speech writer had to cover.

Rick,
The petitions are on the streets to block his inauguration. Angry early voters finding out about the Auntie he wrote about and speaks about on his Obama channel are only part of why.
The release of intel about a tape in a California newspaper, and Obama filing Federal court papers in several states that say American citizens do not have rights to ask him questions, put it over the top.
The Constitution apparently means more to the early voting people, than a race based vote.
A con man getting into power to remove their Constitution upset more than a few. Some have begun regurgitating the koolaide.
Wake up.

Hey, Jock,
Hate to burst your bubble, but Obama may not have even written Dreams From My Father. There is a lot of speculation that it is a doctored book. I will let you do the search to see who experts feel doctored it. When that comes out, it will be another Bama lie that comes out. Do you know the story of how he took an advance for that book, produced nothing, fired his agent, got another advance, and then miraculously, the book came out. And if you compare the two books, there are stylistic differences. The man is a poser. He is going to reinstate the draft—that is what Biden was talking about!

Who is this barely high school educated shadow governor? And what about Palin’s parents? What kind of teachers are they if their own daughter doesn’t know anything about the consitution? How could teachers let their daughter be so stupid? John McCain’s brother called 911 two weeks ago to complain about traffic and then cussed out the dispatcher.

none of them ever, ever, ever mention what they like about john mccain’s policies – but they do tend to spread the manure around about obama.
so what DO you like? his support of women in his 26 years in washington? which bill that john mccain wrote, endorsed, or supported did you like best? because there are none. not one. he did not even vote for the violence against women act – which built domestic abuse shelters and put 100,000 police officers on the street. did you like his support for children and education? which bill? because in 26 years, i couldn’t find one – and in calls to mccain staffers around the country, they couldn’t find one, either. he voted against head start – which is one of the most successful programs in history. he voted against SCHIPS – which was a bipartisan bill to cover children of working parents without health care. he voted AGAINST it. so the reason you support him can’t be women, or education, or children. is it vets? because he has a D rating with iraqi/afghan vets. he voted against the gi bill. he has voted against care for veterans. is it his health care plan? is it his grasp of economics? this is a man whose campaign manager told us that the economic problems were “mental.” is it his war plan? the one that may last 100 years or 50 or… who knows? and how much will it cost? how much more money we will have to borrow from the chinese? how many more lives? how long will our children have to pay to build an islamic government in iraq – just like the government in iran?

If Obama didn’t know his Aunt’s illegal status, obviously he did not know her request for asylum had been rejected- thus why he did not know he could have helped her immigration status. We don’t know what she told him when they last spoke.
His aunt sounds like an independent woman, she may not have wanted to receive charity or to depend on her nephew. I myself have family members who are not so well off, but are determined to support themselves.
