Too busy smokin'.OMG WTF OCTOBER SURPRISE everybody!!! Barack Obama has a number of paternal relatives, many of whom he has met once or not at all, because they come from a secret Marxist madrassa in the foreign city of Kenya, Africa. One of his Kenyan relatives is an aunt whom he has actually met a couple of times! She came to his swearing-in in the Senate in 2004 and has been living in Boston for a while, although he hasn’t heard from her for about two years.

It turns out that this beloved aunt is an Illegal Alien, which Barack Obama really should have known about, as it is customary among “real Americans” to conduct biennial immigration status checks on members of their extended family. So now this lady is going to be deported, maybe? For all his talk about compassion, Barack Obama has yet to process the immigration petitions of his many dozens of distant relatives he does not know very well.

Obama says he didn’t know aunt’s illegal status [AP]

So we’re not allowed to talk about McCain’s ex wife – it’s “PERSONAL”, but Hopey’s family is fair game. Asshole GOP!

Sorry, can’t say it with a straight face. Anyway, I hope Matt Drudge will inform the populace of this momentous fact.

Oh noz! Some lady Hopey barely knows is going to be deported! That’s it. I’m voting for that senile bastard and the crazy lady.

You know, I’ve seen this multiple places, and I don’t get it.

The most common comment is

“If BHO can’t take care of his aunt who lives in A SLUM, how’s he gonna take care of you? WAKE UP AMERICA!!!11″

If he takes in and feeds his entire family, isn’t that socialism? Isn’t the entire premise of Walnuts campaign at this point being anti-socialism?

Also, I apologize for the lack of snark, but dammit we’re 3 days out from this shit ending, and I don’t want anything fucking this up.

My fantasy is Hopey flies straight to Boston, meets with her, then tells the press that yes, she’ll have to do as the authorities say because it is the right thing to do. Then he puts his face directly in the camera and gruffly snorts, “McCain, get your nose out of my family.”

Curious that AP broke the story. They are such a 21st century news powerhouse. And who is kissing whose butt at Immigration? Maybe Lou Dobbs?

Big Ass Belle November 1, 2008 at 2:23 pm

Oh no! BREAKING NEWS!!!! Barack Obama used his pull in Washington to grease his relatives’ way through immigration! What an outrage! How dare he! Insufferable arrogance!

But wait! No! His aunt is illegal! Barack Obama refused to use his pull in Washington to aid his suffering kin! What an outrage! How dare he ignore them! Insufferable arrogance!!

Seriously, isn’t this just one more attempt to show that the man’s black? Just in case folks have missed it to date? Remember, when you go into that voting booth, you’re voting for John McCain or a black man.

The point is to show that he has (gasp! shudder!) relatives from (darkest) Africa?? Living in (horrors! the shame!) low income housing (which is, everyone knows, full of teh black)!

Even worse, in contrast to the sleek, sophisticated, elegant cafe-au-lait millionaire Barack Obama, old Auntie looks tired, worn out, beat down (and black).

Who IS Barack Obama? Under that sleek exterior, is he really a beat down old Auntie from Africa? Is he trying to dazzle us with his slick suits, his handsome exterior? Will the American people be fooled??? Fool me once, fool me twice . . . what the fuck ever. (HE’S BLACK HE’S BLACK HE’S BLACK!!!!)

Jiminy Christmas, I hate these people. HATE them.

Wait a minute folks…did you read the whole article. His possibly illegal alien aunti is living in PUBLIC HOUSING, is a VOLUNTEER and she travels back and forth to Kenya several times a year so she says. Hey, I am in that middle income bracket whom he and his big-mouthed wife want to share the wealth with others. I can’t afford to fly to Kenya at all. So, am I to assume that he wants me to share the wealth so more of his illegal relatives can get wealthy enough on the public dole to fly back and forth?

Gosh golly, I live in a tiny 3 bedroom, old ranch that needs many repairs. I drive a 12 year old car and my kids can’t get college loans cause I make too much. Fortunately I rent, so don’t have the morgage company trying to take my house away. Maybe I should just buy into his Change and Hope preaching…

Nah, maybe I should just move foreign, give up the citizenship that several of my antecedents (including native american) fought for me to enjoy. Then I could move back as an illegal, live much richer on the public dole and be able to travel abroad. Ohhh, and I’d have medical coverage then also…wouldn’t I? You know it’s limiting being on medicare as a citizen. And the old social security doesn’t stretch as far when you got to share it with folks that didn’t make life-long contributions to these programs…sighhhh. What to do, what to do.

I know what I am not going to do…vote for a fellow that wants me to “share” what I already can’t afford to share.

Oh, and granny, while you’re not here, because you’re scared away by those who possess the ability to think for themselves: why do you think that honest work (wages) should be taxed at a higher rate than gambling (or, put another way, managing hedge funds or masturbating over your Ameritrade account)?
