Obama on aunt: 'You have to obey the law'

Katie Couric asked Obama his first question about his aunt in Boston today, according to a transcript from the network.

"Would you support her being deported to Kenya?" Couric asked.

"If she is violating laws, those laws have to be obeyed. We're a nation of laws," Obama replied. "Obviously that doesn't lessen my concern for her, I haven't been able to be in touch with her. But I'm a strong believer you have to obey the law. "

It's hard to imagine how the Right could twist the need to obey the law into a negative thing, but they've tried to do it with so many other things I don't doubt they'll try again.

1. Her mistake

was making a political donation. It's very sad.

2. It is.

The Obama campaign has returned the money, so that criticism can't really continue to hold, but it really sucks that she has been treated like this by the Repugs and the media.
