Reporting BOSTON (CBS) – An illegal immigrant from Kenya who was arrested for drunk driving in Framingham recently is an uncle of President Barack Obama, the White House confirmed to CBS News.
67-year-old Onyango Obama was arrested last Wednesday, August 24 after police say he nearly ran his SUV into a police cruiser and later failed several sobriety tests.
Onyango Obama is the half-brother of the president’s father.
According to the MetroWest Daily News, he pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Thursday, but he was ordered held without bail because there is a federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement warrant for his arrest.
The federal agency has previously ordered him to be deported back to Kenya.
There has been no comment yet from the White House.
WBZ-TV has confirmed that Onyango Obama is represented by Margaret Wong, the same Cleveland-based attorney who helped Zeituni Onyango get asylum in the United States last year.
Zeituni lived for years illegally in South Boston. She told WBZ-TV in September 2010 after being granted asylum that the United States has an “obligation” to grant her citizenship.

If they would just follow the LAW, as written….the feds would find ALL illegals. We all know that isn’t going to happen, it’s too big of a voting block for the donkeys :).

Now Dan Rea no longer has to say “Onyango Obama, not President Obama” and can instead say “Not President Obama’s aunt but President Obama’s uncle!”.

Well You cannot Blame President Obama for His relatives Mishaps or Illegal
Immmigration Status. If you Remember Former President George Bush has a
Substance Abuse History, As wellas, His Daughter. President Bush Was Caught Drunk Driving In the State Of Maine. I Do not see anyone making Comments About Bush and his Family.

Bush’s relatives were not here ILLEGALLY, nor where they living on tax payer handouts. Soes this guy look like he has a job and pays taxes? By the way, Obamas father killed a woman drunk driving in Kenya, so despite your best wishes, this is news and it is disgusting all around. A young man was just killed in Milford a week ago by a drunk driver who was in the US illegally.
At this point we should have to pay for OBAMA’s relatives, President Obama is wealthy and should be supporting his relatives who are here illegally, not the tax payers. Its tiring listening to the Obama apologists. You have crucified Bush for much less. Wrong is wrong is wrong so deal with it.

@ Joan
Can’t speak for everyone, only myself.
I don’t blame Obama for anything thing in this case. I blame the federal government for their complete lack in enforcing their own laws

It seems the president used all his good luck to get elected to the Senate, then the Presidency. He can’t buy a break right now.
What a shame. So much hope and change to get where he is. In fact, he’s three years in with less hope and obviously, no change from any other politician.

First he has his Illegal Immigrant Kenyan Aunt given AMNESTY, now his Illegal Immigrant Uncle is busted for DUI as well as defying ICE Deportation Orders…
Barack HUSSEIN Obama – the ONLY US President with two Illegal Immigrant family members living in the US,…

In the summer of 1999 I arrived in this country on a legally obtained visa.
Since then I have followed the US Immigration’s procedures, rules and regulations and now enjoy being a US Citizen.
Can anyone please explain to me why I did that ? Why did I spend so much money in legal fee’s, application fee’s etc when the Federal/State government obviously have no interest in actually enforcing the Immigration Laws
Ahh, the money I could have saved.

He is arrested in Framingham Mass – and it takes an Australian newspaper to figure out he is the President’s uncle? Really?

Word now is that Mr. Obama had a valid social security number and driver’s license–despite being an illegal alien. You may recall in the 1980s the Dukakis administration attempted to get FAKE Social Security numbers to illegal aliens so they could get on welfare. How “Omar/Onyango” Obama got an SSN and driv lic despite being an illegal–we’ll have to find out.

Poor Uncle Omar! If he was somebody other than The Great Obungler’s uncle, he’d be at home right now chugging down a “cold one.”

Well maybe he can move in with Auntie Z in the government (yes you and me) provided housing and they can have a combination family reunion/beer summit to discuss how to further destroy the immigration laws. To quote the late Dapper; “it makes ya sick!” But not to worry WBZ, CBS, ABC et. al will continue to carry the Obama family’s water.

Do you think Deval Patrick will come out and say that this is not an Illegal Immigration issue but just another DRUNK and we should throw the book at him too?
When will it end.

There’s no way for President Obama to win this one. If he helps his uncle, it’s rank abuse of his station. If he doesn’t, he’s a heartless monster with no affection for his own family.
We’ve all got those hapless, embarrassing family members but most of us a lucky enough not to be held accountable for all their hapless, embarrassing misadventures.

No wonder “The Messiah” wants to grant amnesty to the “illegals” and get them on the gravy train. Don’t try and convince me that The Govt, with all it’s assets and abilities couldn’t find Obama’s illegal Aunt and Uncle if they really wanted to.
