Conyers calls for investigation into Aunti Zeituni info leak; Joe the Plumber still on his own
Michelle Malkin —
[image] I predicted the totally predictable last night . And so it has come to pass: The left-wing fairweather friends of privacy are all over the leak of Aunti Zeituni’s immigration info — while Joe The Plumber remains persona non grata . Democrat Rep. John Conyers has already called for a federal investigation. The WaPo is already up with an A-section story on the anonymous leak. And the liberal blogs are up in arms . The MSM abhor anonymous leaks — unless they’re helping to undermine Bush administration anti-terrorism programs or conservative ...

Obama’s Aunt in U.S. Illegally
Outside The Beltway | OTB —
... whom he first met as an adult and has only occasional contact since. There’s been zero evidence — indeed, zero suggestion — that Obama knew she was in the country illegally, let alone did anything to hide her status. Two questions come to mind, though. First, how the heck is someone who has been ordered deported by a federal judge living in public housing four years later?! Don’t we cross-reference lists? Indeed, why are non-citizens living in public housing? Second, how did this information come out now ? Federal privacy law restricts U.S. immigration agencies from disclosing ...
Tale of Two Leaks
JammieWearingFool —
... of the blogosphere and a few papers in Ohio, the national media has ignored the story. That's right: A United States citizen who was minding his own business was virtually spied on and every aspect of his life scrutinized because he dared to embarrass Barack Obama. Fast forward a couple weeks and it's discovered that same Barack Obama has an aunt living in this country illegally and has made illegal donations to his campaign.

Politico: Auntie disclosure raises questions. No, not what the heck is the beloved aunt of the millionaire Democratic candidate doing living illegally in taxpayer-subsidized poverty, silly. ...

... being an illegal immigrant who had been ordered deported. But there's one little problem with that tale: As the Washington Post reports , the release of that information was a violation of confidentiality laws for immigrants seeking asylum: Federal privacy law restricts U.S. immigration agencies from disclosing information about citizens and permanent residents, and DHS policy similarly limits disclosures about the status of legal and illegal immigrants. Asylum-seekers are granted greater protection, because of the sensitive nature of their claims and the risks of ...
Fox Works Overtime on Obama Aunt Story, Takes Vacation on Palin Family Arrest
News Hounds —
... It might also be worth mentioning here that Fox reported . . . And reported . . . And reported . . . on Zeituni Onyango, who is President Obama’s late father’s half-sister, last year despite the fact that, according to the Washington Post, Federal privacy law restricts U.S. immigration agencies from disclosing information about citizens and permanent residents, and DHS policy similarly limits disclosures about the status of legal and illegal immigrants. Asylum-seekers are granted greater protection, because of the sensitive nature of their claims and the risks of retaliation. ...
