Experts: Leak On Obama's Aunt Could Make Persecution More Likely

It looks like last week's leak of information about the immigration status of Barack Obama's aunt might be even more despicable than we'd thought.

The Associated Press reported Saturday morning that an application for asylum made by Obama's aunt, Zeituni Onyango, was rejected four years ago by an immigration judge. It sourced the information to a federal law enforcement official, and another source in a position to know.

Someone jog my memory here. Wasn't there a leak of politically charged information from the state department back in 2004?
