Sumbuddy else Obama don't know nuttin' about...

OK, so his auntie, the one he wrote so lovingly about in his book, has been living in a slum completely unbeknownst to the great ONE. Even though she attended his 2005 swearing in ceremony... and called him to let him know she was in Boston.

Mr. Millionaire Obama didn't know he needed to share the wealth with his auntie, who also happens to be here illegally... yep, she's an illegal alien. I know you'll get a kick out of readying the story I'm linking to below. Can you tell this reporter didn't want to be writing anything negative about The Obama? The "leak" raises questions? Imagine what would be happening if the media found out McCain had a relative living in a slum... who was an illegal to boot. Obama's campaign is going to try and get past this one by talking about it as a nasty, last minute attack. Typical. Rather than deal with the issue they go on the attack. Unfortunately, many gullible voters seem to be willing to swallow those kind of deflections.

Obama aunt leak raises questions

Obama last heard from Zeituni Onyango, who attended his swearing-in ceremony to the U.S. Senate in 2005, two years ago.
HENDERSON, Nev. — Barack Obama did not know a relative was living in the United States illegally for the past nearly four years prior to today's Associated Press report, "but obviously believes that any and all appropriate laws be followed," the campaign said Saturday in a statement.

The Democratic nominee last heard from Zeituni Onyango, who attended his swearing-in ceremony to the U.S. Senate in 2005 and is a half-sister of Obama's late father, two years ago, when she called to say she was in Boston, the campaign said. Campaign officials said they did not assist her in getting a tourist visa and had not known that she was living in America.

News of Onyango's legal status, which the AP confirmed through sources, including a federal law enforcement official, provided an unwelcome diversion for the Obama campaign during its final push toward Election Day and stoked suspicions among supporters of a political motive behind the timing of the leak.
