Zeituni Onyango is the 58-year-old Kenyan-born aunt of Barack Hussein Obama, and next to Valerie Jarrett, she seems to be the person who best understands his political philosophy. At a time when unprecedented deficits and swelling government dependence nudge the economy toward a Greek-style debt crisis, this illegal alien who has never paid a dime in (U.S.) taxes receives public housing and a $700 monthly disability check. Yet she insists her new country has treated her as “public enemy number one” and put her through “a Hell of a lot,” so she owes it “nothing.” It turns out she believes we took advantage of her, and she angrily lectures American taxpayers they have the “obligation” under “Almighty God” to “help the poor, help other countries, and take care of women.” After all, her steep legal bills are being footed by “Heaven.”
She is angry, thankless, clueless about where all the benefits she enjoys come from, hostile toward those who pay for them, and insistent they come faster, more frequently, and at an ever-greater cost. In other words, Aunt Zeituni appears to perfectly express Barack Obama’s outlook and policies.
They’re Comin’ to America
Aunt Zeituni came to America in 2000. In time, she said she became aware she “overstayed,” and in 2004 Judge Leonard Shapiro denied her asylum. This did not keep her from attending her nephew, Barack Obama’s, swearing in as a U.S. Senator nor his inauguration as president — where Boston’s WBZT-TV said she had been “invited.” However, this May, the same judge suddenly changed course and granted her petition on the grounds she would face danger in Kenya because of her notoriety. Strangely, media reports do not portray Obama’s “home country” as especially hostile to his relatives. His ancestral village of Kogelo threw a four-day-long party for his inauguration, and Time magazine has reported villagers have elevated his half-brother Malik to celebrity status. Still, the judge reversed himself. Ever since, she has remained on the taxpayers’ dole. And that has her steaming mad — at America.
Aunt Zeituni vented her views in a two-part interview with Boston’s WBZT-TV.
Her walk through the tax coffers of the nation she remains in despite its laws has not been sufficiently pampering for her. She told WBZT, “To me, America’s dream became America’s worst nightmare.” She whined, “I’ve been treated like public enemy number one” and been put through “a Hell of a lot, Hell of a lot.” Her interviewer recounted that Aunt Zeituni felt America had taken advantage of her, though he added that she did not elaborate.
The answer seems clear: she’s entitled, and Americans have been too stingy in handing over their cash and their country.
“You Have the Obligation to Make Me a Citizen”
The media have widely reported her view that “If I come as an immigrant, you have the obligation to make me a citizen.” Since the president has set the full force of the federal government into providing amnesty for 15-20 million Democratic voters illegal immigrants, one could reasonably infer he believes the United States has the “obligation” to make anyone who lands on these shores a citizen. But how can the United States pay for the massive welfare spending that attends this immigration? After all, Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Friedman warned, “You cannot simultaneously have free immigration and a welfare state.”
Not to worry: God will rain down pennies from Heaven.
If Only You Believed in Miracles….
Whatever people perceive to be Barack Obama’s faith, he and his aunt have a shared belief that money magically appears and Americans have a God-given obligation to “spread the wealth around.” Aunt Zeituni said “Heaven” was paying for her high-powered immigration attorney and “even my food.” That is an odd description of federal welfare spending. As for what she owes American citizens?
Zeituni: I owe them nothing.
Reporter: But it’s given you so much?
Zeituni: So? It’s a free country, country under God.
The reporter then asked whether it was fair for a non-citizen, non-taxpayer to graze her living from the generosity of her host country’s welfare programs. He asked:
Reporter: So, the person who comes in who never paid a dime into the sysetm but yet gets to take advantage of that system–?
Zeituni: That’s God’s miracles. Don’t you believe in miracles?”
Reporter: You don’t think it’s unfair?
Zeituni: It’s not unfair.
This continual reference to God appeared again in her most stark statement: it is your religious obligation to keep shelling out for middle aged Kenyans:
Zeituni: You people who preach Jesus Christ, Almighty God, and the rest of it, you are here to help people, help the poor, help other countries, and take care of women.
Reporter: That’s what the United States is supposed to do?
Zeituni: And you have to give me my right like any other person’s right.
This sounds very much like the theology Glenn Beck has recognized as Barack Obama’s: the belief in “collective salvation.” Wealth spontaneously springs up like posies, and the nation’s political leadership must distribute it “fairly.” Whatever the merits of Dinesh D’Souza’s recent article, this is one area where Barack Obama certainly seems to share the mindset of a Kenyan.
The danger in his aunt’s remarks are not only that Obama appears to share them, but he seems to desperately want the rest of America to adopt them, as well.
“Obama Money!”
Obama’s long-held redistributionist views stem from, and are empowered by, views like these. In 2008, Peggy Joseph famously told a reporter:
I won’t have to worry about putting gas in my car. I won’t have to worry about paying my mortgage. You know, if I help him, he’s gonna help me.
A Detroit woman told television cameras she needed help with her “mortgage and paying my lights and gas bill. Thank you Barack Obama. We love you!”And WJR-AM famously interviewed several Detroit-area federal aid applicants about where the money was coming from:
Reporter: Why are you here?
Woman: To get some money.
Reporter: What kind of money?
Woman: Obama money.
…
Reporter: And where Obama he get it?
Woman: I don’t know — his stash? I don’t know. I don’ t know where he got it, but he [sic.] givin’ it to us, to help us. (Friend, “And we love him!”) We love him. That’s why we voted for him! O-bam-a!
(Story continues after video.)
Do these women sound any less clueless than Aunt Zeituni? The money just is — now gimme! This is the fruit of decades of Detroit liberalism and government coddling. It is America’s destiny under a left-wing ideologue like Barack Obama. In the America he envisions no one has any idea where the money comes from, everyone is entitled, the recipients lecture the productive sector that providing for the inert is their God-given responsibility — and absolutely everyone bitches that the cash has not come in faster.
If you have not yet seen the full interview with Zeituni Onyango, watch carefully. She is what Obama wants to make of your country and your children.
so this 58 year old ILLEGIAL ALIEN gets housing, disability and my taxes are paying for it!!!!!hhhmmm i am 64 and i work 6 days a weekmtom support myself….i don not take anything i haven't EARNED with my own blood sweat and tears,,,,what a piece of shit
What do you expect? Where has she been living? Amongst those that think exactly like she does. The is, has been, and always will be welfare culture. She is not at all unlike those in our own welfare subculture, the majority of which just happens to be black. They will not change unless forced to change.The only humane thing to do for them is to force them to change by forcing them to help themselves and learn an appreciation for the rewards of independence. Many may be to old and unable , but it must start somewhere. These people are the very foundation of the left, and the left is intent on growing them. And that is why I say the left is racist!
I agree that a lot of those on the left are the real racists. That's one reason they are always so quick to throw the race card. They hide from it, they fear it so much, that they throw it before anyone else can. I think we should just end welfare entirely. Sick or swim time, people!!! Those that need or want it, can come in and PROVE they need it. Once proven, give it to them for a limited period of time and then it's over. Oh, and if, during the time you are receiving assistance, you are convic ted of ANY crime, you are immediately taken off the program and can't reapply for a period of time after you get released.
This nation is on the precipice of collapse. It is by design and that design is at the very heart of this "Nanny state" issue. However, there is remedy. THE PEOPLE MUST STAND PEACEFULLY and re-inhabit the Constitutional Republic and let the fictitious Democracy fall, implode on itself. Those addicted to a free ride will fall with it and sadly there is nothing that we can do about it if they refuse to return to personal responsibility. Join those PEACEFUL AMERICANS re-inhabiting the lawful government of the land. Start here at my blog, read and follow the links to the Republic. God Save and Bless this mighty nation and her people! http://restoredusa.blogspot.com I will be publishing the process for lawful personal documentation shortly.
Well, it seems that frickin' ARROGANCE runs in the family!!!
Yeah. The freeloader moochers get more obnoxious and multiply prolifically the more they reap the freebies. When reminded they are receiving freebies at the expense of US taxpayers who do NOT get freebies, the moochers laugh in defiance, without any accountability. Hey. These moochers are both foreign illegals AND domestic (welfare "folks" already here). We will see how loud they, the moochers, laugh when they are cut off and the illegals DEPORTED for good. If this Country persists without immigration reform, the moochers will drive the Country into bankruptcy along with "foreign aid" freebies to the entire world. The moochers will then have to fend for themselves, that being in general anarchy, very likely leading to moocher riots to take from the hard workers of this Country who earned what they have.
Deport AUNTIE!!!
The trouble with hand outs is that sooner than later they weaken the society. Instead of rearing our young to work for whatever they want in life, now, we are teaching them to beg. Anyone who wants a free ride in life without making a concerted effort on his or her part to earn a part of any dream deserves to lose it all. For sixty-eight of my seventy-six years, I have been self sustaining. I have been working since I was nine, when I harvested crops for the war effort, and have never been unemployed. Obama's aunt, reflects what many think about our nation, we owe it to the world to provide for everyone. We don't and the sooner we tell people like Obama's aunt the better. Maybe, it is just time to dump the whole lot and start over again. I bet that if enough people get hungry enough, they can find work to buy food, if not, then they won't have to worry about losing weight, it will come with time! If we don't dump the Liberals as soon as we can, we will all be getting thinner and Michelle can claim success by economic breakdown. Of course, that will never happen, because it will have to be someone else's fault.

you can't help the poor by destroying the rich. you cannot strengthen the weak by weakining the strong. you cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. you cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. you cannot further brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. you cannot build character and courage by taking away peoples initiative and independence. you cannot help people by doing for them what they could and should be doing for themselves
Abraham Lincoln
The illegal alien aunt is the reason why when I think immigration reform,the word deportation pops into my mind.This problem has existed for decades but now we must be serious when coming up with solutions,how about enforcing the laws already on the books and start the deportation process.
Impeach the bastard now! Send him and his "handout" aunt back to the jungle where they belong. Send his high spending wife with him. These people will bankrupt Americia with their "everyone has a right" attitude. Well a long time ago in colonial days they had lazy bums that wouldn't work and the leaders instituted a "No work, No eat" rule. Let's see that again! I work and pay a lot of taxes because I am single and self employed. No one ever gives me anything except a hard time.
I pay into a SS bank account that I will not be able to live on when I retire because every Tom, Dick and Harry with a "bad back" is soaking up the money. I don't have health insurance because I can't afford it, but illegal aliens can get free medical treatment, food stamps, subsudized housing, you name it. I for one feel it is time to put the brakes on these handouts. IF YOU DON"T WORK YOU DON"T EAT!!!!
How much more of this are the American people going to put up with?? It seems WE are Adrift ! NO Leadership for Our Constitution ! Nothing happens without Cause. And this Cause, WE are bringing On Ourselves ! Our Weapon is TO VOTE !! America The Beautiful, is Destroying Itself !! Please go to the Polls and Vote for those that LOVE this Great Nation, and the Constitution. Our Chances of Surviving are becoming NONE and SLIM !! Those people that live to beat the system, and run for Political Office, Will Continue to Beat the System for their Own Personal Gain ! WAKE UP AMERICA !!!
When government gets too big & too powerful, you can always rob Peter to pay Paul. However, eventually, Peter runs out of money to give to the Paul's of the world & then all must starve to death.
The arrogant attitude, the entitlement mentality, the belligerent belief we "owe" her & others like her, is beyond contemptible. If she had paid taxes al her life & suffered some sort of disability, I would agree we all should help. If she was a citizen, I believe we would have a level of obligation to help. This woman is none of the above & she has the temerity to demand we pay up for her & all others like her.
We are being told because we are successful, we must pay up. We are being told, many nations employing the failed concepts of socialism want us to pay the way because their way is an abysmal failure ours is a success, & that means we owe them because they were too stupid to try our way instead.
Well the only answer to that is to re-inhabit the Republic and that has been done. It's now 1775 once again and everyone must choose… stay with the corporation U.S. and go down with the ship or Declare your place in the Restored Republic of the united States… http://restoredusa.blogspot.com
In the end, this represents exactly why we must elect true conservatives who believe we must secure our borders properly, aggressively enforce our already existing immigration laws, harshly prosecute any employer of illegal aliens, and end the foolish birthright citizenship scam that ever other developed nation has embraced, except Canada. I suspect Canada will follow within a few years as the numbers start to get out of control there as well. Legal immigration is fine, so long as we control the actual number coming in & we know who is coming in. We cannot have an immigration system tied to family reunification as its priority. Prices 'might' go up for some goods, Those price increases will be small compared to the actual costs we already bear to deal with &/or take care of illegal aliens.
Far too many have shed blood & given their very lives for this nation. How dare a scum who does not work & who has broken our laws, make any demands on this nation!!
The apple does not fall far from the tree.
Let them all starve (except the children) in the streets. We can create a village for the people who don't want to work. They can eat each other if they want. I have my own family to support. I'sot my job or right as a citizen ofths ount to support anyone else. Thas not whym anestos cme here in the 1600's. They came here to work hard and build a better life for themselves, not to live off of the sweat and tears of others.
I think I'm going to puke! Why is this woman still being allowed to live in the United States?! I sure hope that patriotic Americans stand up this November and for the next Presidential election and get this idiot and his supporters out of the white house!
MoM24GR8KIDS…..She's here because of an anti-American judge who is kissing hussein's A–!
Proving it isn't just the illegal alien Mexican who is draining our coffers. Illegal Obama family not only does the same, but bitches for not getting more, while insisting we owe her. OWE HER? For coming here and staying illegally? Where is her reality check? She wants citizenship – probably because she thinks more money would hit her between the eyes. Tell her to try to live on S/S and pay her own rent, food, utilities to be a REAL AMERICAN.
The attitude of the illegals and lifetime welfare recipients is always the same – you owe me a living because I was born! No one between the ages of 18 and 67 (retirement) should be allotted one cent of welfare. There are minimum wage jobs available for those who actually want to work. Don't work – you get nothing, nada, zip, zilch! Women who work for minimum wage (leaving welfare rolls) should be able to obtain free daycare for no more than two children. Welfare recipients breed as if they were rabbits; in part to up their income in far too many cases. The limit on welfare should be no more than two children. This would end the endless line of basically illiterate, lazy, gimme while I sit on my butt in front of the large flat screen TV, sucking down the booze mentality which has permeated this nation.
You want to live in our free (for now at least – vote out the incumbents on November 2nd to put a stop to the Socialist agenda in the White House and many in Congress), become productive, self sufficient and worthwhile OR get the hell out of our country…whether or not you were born here to illegal or legal parents
I am surprised the Prez hasn't long since legalized her and registered her as a Democrat, since she seems to share their entitlement philosophies. This old leech should be shipped back to Kenya!
It seems that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!!! I say, DEPORT her SORRY ASS!!!!
What a TIGHT-ASS MOOCHER!!!! THIS CREATURE has alot of GALL!!!! She needs to CRAWL back UNDER her ROCK!!!!! AND, go STRAIGHT to HELL with her WORTHLESS NEPHEW, HUSSEIN!!!
It's No GOOD people like HER and her WORTHLESS NEPHEW, HUSSEIN that give BLACK PEOPLE such a BAD IMAGE!!!!
Newsmax.com just yesterday published an article reporting that Obama wants to "eavesdrop online".
Well…here you go Obama. Get an earfull! Got a clue NOW how the majority of Americans are fed up with you? Aunt Zeituni can go to HELL! What an ungrateful B I T C H!!! This attitude must run in your family! No wonder you hate America! Take your ungrateful worthless butt, your family and Zeituni back to Kenya where you all belong! NONE of you deserve to be here!
Somebody needs to ask this nigger where exactly her nephew was borm.. Bet she doe not say Hawaii..
Come on, kenny1801 and Dobroist, I know you have better words than that! No name calling, please!
For a lot of people, this kind of thinking is just pure ignorance. That doesn't make it right, it's just what it is. They've been 'on the dole' and supported by welfare or other entitlements for so long that they expect it. This is what we've come to since the 60's. In trying to help out those less fortunate ones, we've actually created a growing portion of the population that expects to be supported from cradle to grave. Well, folks, no one ever supported me. I worked from the time I was 14-years-old and supported myself, by myself, my entire life. I still do. Now I'm retired and 57 and fighting mad! I've given a lot of the fight up to God. I pray that enough of America wakes up to this travesty before it's too late. I talk to people and try to educate them myself. Hopefully, with firm assurance in Divine Providence, and you and me working together, we can save us from going over the cliff. God willing. Pray people… work hard and vote… but pray!
THIS IDIOTS PIC is LIVING PROOF that they DO HAVE WITCH DOCTORS in KENYA!!!! What an UGLY ILLEGAL ALIEN CREATURE from KENYA IT IS!!!!!!!
FOLKS I THINK I HAVE THIS ALL FIGERED OUT. THERE MUST BE SOME KIND OF DEFECTIVE GENE IN THE OBAMA FAMILY. BECAUSE THEY ARE HAVE THE SAME KINDS OF IDEAS, WHEN IT COMES TO OTHER PEOPLES MONEY. OUT IN OKLAHOMA WHERE ICOME FROM, WE USED TO SAY PEOPLE LIKE THIS"HAD THEIR HEAD UP THEIR ASS" I THINK IT STILL FITS THIS WOMAN AND HER WAY OF THINKING.
WHY do American citizens continue to put up with these dirt bags? Deport her a$$ or throw her out in the streets to fend for herself. Let's see how she likes that!
Dear Auntie Zit…Can you read between the lines? F— Y–!
Her sense of entitlement make's me sick!
I just don’t understand how she can get free housing if she doesn’t have the papers . And her nephew says he hasn’t been able to get in touch with her . He is a fucking liar. She is an arrogant fuck. I cannot believe we cannot do anything about it but just watching. I live in Boston I am an immigrant myself. Most of my friends are immigrants too (some legal some illegals) but I never ever and ever missed my taxes and been unemployed. Same thing for my friends. She is a shame for all immigrants and especcially for the Kenyan ppl that cam in here to work. Sham sham on her. I wish I could so something.
