And in other news, a distant relative of Bush hit somebody in the face and so that's a reflection on Bush right there.
Wait weren't you telling us with glee about an outed official because it was hypocrisy? Should Obama's family be immune from immigration rules?
I suppose he'll be deported now since the new policy of Obama admin is to deport illegals with criminal records.
This story is as big/little as the outed Puerto Rican
I have absolutely no reason to think that Obama has personally intervened in any way to cause fairly distant relatives to be allowed to stay, do you?
If a relative of his is here illegally and doesn't meet whatever criteria there is to stay, then that person should be removed or put into the same process as anyone else.
But, I fail to see how its Obama's fault if they've been able to stay when they shouldn't
You don't think Obama knows he's here illegally? You really don't think this man will be treated differently because of who he is related to?
I don't know whether Obama is aware. I've got cousins and uncles and aunts and don't know their names or where they live and I'm just a regular guy, I don't run the country.
Ummm - he wrote about the guy in his book....
Personally, I find it VERY hard to believe that any local law enforcement official is going to be cutting a relative of Barack Obama's a break on anything. More careful because they know that there will be questions? Sure. But favoritism towards someone because their last name is Obama?
You have to be joking.
You're a local immigration guy and you are going to go after the POTUS's relative? Riiiiigggghht
And, even if some local cop in Vermont or wherever did decide to look the other way because the guy is related to Obama, how can you put that at the foot of the POTUS?
Back to the top - Obama knows the guy is here illegally just as he did with his Aunt. He's ignoring it willfully so any smart LEO would do the same.
We all know that what this is about is an attempt to insinuate that Obama has engaged a conspiracy to help out a family member, from Kenya, who is here illegally. The claim has come up before, it will come up again, and so far I'm waiting for an iota of proof.
Not a conspiracy - just more do as I say not as I do. In the larger scheme of things it's no big deal. Just like the shocking story of the outed Puerto Rican you so gleefully posted about.
Obama is so loathed in some circles that I just have to think that an order from him and how many layers it would have to go through, someone would disclose it.
I bet it is just as likely he doesn't know it as much as he does know it. I don't keep up with all my uncles and aunts.
And IT could be there are 57,000 things on his list that are far more important.
What's Obama's official stance on illegal immigration and how much does this differ from that? Serious question.

Just from what you see, its not much different than that of GWB. Which was one of his biggest faults to me.
They've both dropped the ball, but for different reasons IMO.
Bush didn't want to man up and deal with the problem for various reasons.
Obama (and I think the left in general) see potential votes to be had.
President Obama's uncle had Social Security ID - BostonHerald.com
Despite being an illegal, he had a SSN!
