Aunt Zeituni is a victim

Aunt Zeituni: 'The System Took Advantage Of Me'

 "If I come as an immigrant, you have the obligation to make me a citizen." Those are the words from 58-year-old Zeituni Onyango of Kenya in a recent exclusive interview with WBZ-TV.

Onyango is the aunt of President Barack Obama. She has been living in the United States illegally for years, receiving public assistance in Boston.

Aunt Zeituni, as she has come to be known, first surfaced in the public light in 2008, in the final days of the Presidential election. Then-candidate Obama said that he was not against the possible deportation of his aunt. "If she has violated laws, then those laws have to be obeyed," he told CBS's Katie Couric. "We are a nation of laws."

Onyango had violated the law, and she knew it.

"I knew I had overstayed" she told WBZ-TV's Jonathan Elias when the two sat down one-on-one.

 Poor auntie was victimized by our cruel and heartless system of capitalism and state sponsored socialism. I suppose auntie Zeituni considers herself part of that wretched teaming mass writhing to be free etc. 

 But at least some things work out for the better. Since her long lost nephew has been elected president?  She has been taken off the criminal list and made whole again as a permanent and legal resident of the USA. 

I suppose that is only fair, seeing as she was a victim of our cruel system for so many years. And besides, like auntie Zeituni says.....  

"If I come as an immigrant, you have the obligation to make me a citizen."

That must be where her nephew gets his own impressions and beliefs concerning immigrants.......
