Too late. If Palins are fair game, then so are Obamas.
Yep...that number is the same one listed for her previous address on Bowen Street. She simply transferred service to the Flaherty address.

State Representative Brian P. Wallace, a Democrat who lives a few blocks from Onyango, said he had heard rumors over the summer that Obama had an aunt living in the neighborhood.
“Obama’s aunt living in Southie?” he said. “I thought somebody was putting me on.”
Yesterday, as word spread that Onyango was Obama’s aunt, Wallace was bursting with pride.
“I think it’s great to have her,” he said. “Maybe her nephew will visit.”

Onyango, who is paid a small stipend for working as a health advocate in her housing complex, has shunned attention. Yesterday morning, she ignored a television camera, saying nothing to several reporters as she walked out of her first-floor apartment, handed a duffle bag to the driver of a taxicab, and was driven off.
For three years, she was a volunteer with Experience Corps, a nonprofit that trains adults over 55 to work with children in public schools, said Mary Gunn, the group’s executive director.
In a profile on the Experience Corps website, Onyango is described as a “former computer systems coordinator” who says she wanted to volunteer in the schools because “I felt that I should help the children in my community.”
“I love people and enjoy interacting with them,” Onyango said. “Also, I was idle, and this was a chance to get involved.”
Gunn said Onyango is a wonderful person, but said, “Zeituni wishes for me not to comment, and I want to honor her wish.”
Onyango made clear her desire to stay out of the way of her nephew’s campaign. “We’ll talk after the election,” she said. “Come talk to me after the fifth.”

Of course blame President Bush. You Bush Derangement Syndrome victims make me sick. Crawl back under your rock.
“Miss Onyango has asked that we respect her privacy and she be left alone,” he said. “She’s feeling very put upon. We are asking the press to back off because she is feeling a little bit oppressed.”
If she was denied asylum, why wasn’t she deported!?
The court case is a matter of public record and nobody had to leak anything. As for her request for “asylum,” that’s because Obama is the cousin of the brutal thug Odinga, who at the time that Auntie applied for asylum was losing out on his campaign to steal the power in Kenya. He got out of jail, campaigned on pure, violent Marxism and lost the election by 200,000+ votes. Then he unleashed so much violence that he ended up being appointed the equivalent of co-president of Kenya in hopes that he would rein in his mob of followers and win the cooperation of the Islamic party, with which he had signed an agreement to install sharia.
The entire Obama family in Kenya (that is, the huge group of half-siblings, half-aunts and uncles, etc. produced by polygamous Muslim males) is deeply involved in Marxist politics. The judge didn’t give her asylum either because there was no credible threat to her, or because she was on the side of the aggressor.
Times-OnLine even twicked the Dems nose a bit in their explaination.
Yep, she's an Obama, all right. Feeling oppressed obviously runs in their family. BTW, I have a half sister, and I DO NOT consider my nieces "distant relations", nor do they consider me a "distant aunt". What an asinine thing for this author to say.
Of course blame President Bush.
only when he is not being conservative
She was deported in 2004 and failed to leave.
John Kerry or Ted Kennedy, illegal alien lovers, should be asked about that firmly.
John Kerry lived in his car in the 80s after being thrown out by his first wife. How did that maggot amass a personal fortune of $232 million? Don't think that Teresa gave him the money. So, it begs the question: Has Kerry been taking money from the illegal aliens as protection??? In 2004, it was reported that Kerry took a mortgage out on his house for campaign expenses. He was broke. Where did he get his fortune?
Obama's aunt isn't the only illegal living in Boston Public Housing at the taxpayers expense.
Let me get this straight. The New York Times reveals state secrets that put 300 million people in jeopardy and there is outrage against Bush and nothing on the gov’t side is done to find the leaker. Someone exposes an Obama relative and now the gov’t is going on a which hunt to find who released the name?
It’s not Bush’s fault period. Get off it already.
Being his father's sister does not make her a "distant" relative.
**Actually it warrants a deportation...**
Can they send CONYERS with her??
Obama's aunt found---there's also an uncle.
