BFD! George W. Bush got a DWI in Texas and he became POTUS.
Show me a family tree that dosn"t have a nut or two.
I love all of the comments about taking his driver's license away. The man isn't even a legal citizen and it's not his first DUI. Wake up people.
this is where libs forget about levi johnston and his mother. the two of them don't even share blood with Sarah but somehow their prblems were supposed to be a reflection on her. now do you see how pathetic and childish you sound?
So the President has to pay for the sin of his uncle? Did he ask him to commit the crime?
How did he have a valid driver's license. I ask because that is not one of the charges.
I agree that the arrest of Obama's uncle should not directly reflect on him per se, but one has to wonder how much he knows about members of his family members living here in the United States illegally and how this knowledge may or may not be shaping the administrations immigration policies. I also think it is a big deal if the President has knowledge that members of his family are here illegally and does nothing to enforce the federal immigration laws as his job is the execution of those laws.
Ok, okay, Bush's daughters were drunks too, so is Boaener. What's the big deal?
What has this got to do with President Obama? Nothing there are more important things going on in this country people are arrested all the time for being drunk. He has no control over his uncle so what?
He is an illegal immigrant!!!!!!!
Ha ha. The repubs are ecstatic over this. This is all they have. They are crying out for help!
As they are loosing big time!
Nary a mention from the party that Bushie himself was a drunk and was arrested but daddy-0 bailed him out again.
Don't even pay attention to these 'Baggers as their words are nothing but lies!
Obama/ Biden 2012!

Ha-ha – Under Obama's new illegal alien policy this guy can get amnesty and a work permit because his crimes were not violent.

Let’s call it for what it is; an embarrassment for the President.
What is hypocritical of those comments claming that this is a none story and should not in any way reflect on Obama is true. But like anything else with Liberals it depends on who is being embarrassed.
I seen some of the most despicable comments made towards Republicans or Conservatives for lesser incidents; such as the lie that Palin said she could see Russia from her window; but it actually was Tina Fay in a comedy skit on SNL. But it didn’t stop all you hypocritical Liberals from running with that line as being true. This was just one example of how Liberals will take joy in stupid little untruths when it’s directed at Republicans or Conservatives.
I don't care who he's related to, he's in the country illegally. Deport him.
