But why bother with evidence when you can make any statement you want in the safety of anonymity.

So, I put her down with Neil Bush and Billy Carter - relatives about whom the presidential candidate can do little but suffer indignities and news stories.

What is it you wanted him to do, even if you were right and he did know her situation?
Didn't you get the memo?

Barack is responsible for every bad thing that anyone he ever met has done.

So being an illegal and Obama knows it and has done nothing about it.


AP: Obama aunt from Kenya living in US illegally
This was not a surprise to me, just like 5 minutes ago I replied to Obama or Mccain for florida thread and said Obama will let the illegals be in peace.

I personally have 3 reasons to vote for McCain

1. I dont want Obama to increase taxes to ANYONE, the lower, the better.
2. Republicans > Democ_rats any time
3. Obama doesnt mind illegal immigrants.

Those illegals are mean, they dont know english and they are abusing America. It's like a rape.
Why cant they be LEGAL immigrants

Actually, I have never seen a presidential campaign where we were so interested in relatives that aren't close to the candidate. Does anyone know about McCain's aunts, cousins, etc? The other thing that bothers me in this thread are statements like "he probably knew" or "he was harboring her"--We don't know any of that. I have many, many relatives that I know absolutely nothing about and have had no contact with in years. Find links and quit assuming so much.

It's very apparent that the actual definition of "harboring", in the legal sense, is lost on you.

So pardon me if I ignore your opinion about it.

She doesn't qualify for any amnesty because she has standing deportation orders.

I think she should be deported and I think he should return the money.

But that doesn't make him responsible for her living conditions, her being in this country, or her decisions.

Are you responsible for the choices your aunt or uncle makes?

My father has done unethical things. I have not turned him in. Are you advocating that Obama should have turned her in, if he knew she was there illegally?

And he has been consorting with terrorists and planning to blow up the United States since he was eight years old. And he planned the 9/11 attacks.

(Satire)

I neither stated or implied that Obama was responsible for her situation. Please don't put words in my mouth.

I agree, he should publicly condemn her illegal status, refusal to obey deportation orders and illegal contributions to his campaign. He should donate the money he received to charity.

Yes, he should have convinced her to leave or turned her in if he knew she was here illegally.... He is not some random citizen like your father.... He is running to be the PRESIDENT!!!

Then again, it's pretty characteristic for Dems to fail at leading by example.
