Rep. Steve King wants Barack Obama’s aunt to testify about her asylum case

   Up until she was suddenly granted asylum last month, Barack Obama’s Aunt Zeituni was living in this country illegally while receiving welfare and public housing. In 2002 Aunt Zeituni applied for political asylum and in 2004 her request was denied and she was ordered to be deported.

  She never left the country and has been living in this country illegally and on the public dole ever since. In his Book, Barack Obama claimed to have lost contact with his beloved aunt, and during the 2008 presidential race when it was discovered that she was living illegally in Boston, Barack Obama claimed that he had no idea what her immigration status was.

 After being turned down for asylum  in the past, Barack Obama’s illegal immigrant aunt was granted asylum last month. The White House has denied any involvement in the case, but not everyone is so sure that the White House did not have any influence in Aunt Zeituni’s sudden change of luck in her request for asylum. Representative Steve King is requesting that Aunt Zeituni testify in front of the House Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security and International Law.

“[i]n order to better determine whether favoritism played a role – especially because Ms. Onyango had been earlier turned down for asylum and ordered deported in 2004 before her nephew became president – the Subcommittee needs to hear from Ms. Onyango hersel

  There is the very real chance that Barack Obama did not officially interfere in this case, but there is no doubt that even if he did not, the decision was influenced by the fact that Barack Obama is president. We need to find out for sure one way or the other whether Barack Obama played a role in his aunt being granted asylum because comprehensive immigration reform is one of Barack Obama’s domestic agenda priorities. She has been breaking the law for years, but instead of being punished, she was rewarded; we can expect more of this if comprehensive immigration reform is passed.

  The committee hearing is scheduled for tomorrow and if the regime has nothing to hide I do not see why Aunt Zeituni would be leery of testifying; and I do not see a reason why the regime would be leery of letting her testify.

  She was denied asylum when she was just another immigrant to this country, when her visa expired and she was supposed to leave the country she applied for political asylum, she was denied but refused to leave the country. Nothing has changed since then in regards to her immigration status with the exception that her nephew became president, yet surprisingly it was determined that she was suddenly a political refugee. We are suppose to believe that neither her now famous nephew or his position had anything to do with this.

    There is only one way to determine if favoritism played a role in this sudden reversal; Aunt Zeituni must take the stand and give the American people her side of the story because this issue goes well beyond just this one case. Comprehensive immigration reform is going to be one of the next issues that this regime tackles and we can expect illegal immigrants to be granted amnesty if it passes. Aunt Zeituni provides us with the classic example of a person who was rewarded for bad behavior and we can expect more of this in the future if the immigration reform bill is ever passed.

  Somehow those immigrants that follow the law and emigrate to this country using the proper procedure will be screwed over, while those like Aunt Zeituni– who refused to adhere to the law– will be rewarded. This is ass backwards and the American people deserve an answer in the Aunt Zeituni case because it is a microcosm of what we can expect under this regime’s version of immigration reform.
