Well, you just keep on being a supporter of this administration in particular and of a bungling bureaucracy in general. Your name is legion. I think the point is that, while this good Christian woman was kept in prison these last many months, millions of thugs from Mexico and who knows how many terrorists poured over our borders with impunity.

First of all, I don't see how you could call me a supporter of Bush Administration immigration policies when my reply clearly indicated my opposition to illegal immigration, without exceptions. But now I see what your "agenda" is: this woman is, in your opinion, a "good Christian", therefore she merits an exception to policy in preference to the "millions" of 'evil, greasy Mexicanos". Well, I certainly believe that there are a substantial numbers of not so good guys, and possibly a few terrorists amongst the folks coming illegally across our Southern border, which is why I believe that we need strict enforcement of our immigration laws, and more attention to border control than the Bush Administration is willing to provide. But I also know that many of the Mexican/Central American illegal immigrants are devout Catholics, and therefore (by your lights) equally deserving of the "Christian Exemption" you would like to grant your Korean lady friend (or maybe in your Fundamentalist zeal you don't recognize Catholics as "real born-agin Christians"). Your emotional appeal to our "Christian Charity" and humanity is not at all dissimilar to the emotional appeals made by MALDEF, La Raza and most of the pro-illegal immigration groups. Do you think that this Korean woman deserves a break just because the immigration system worked the way it should in her case, when it has failed so miserably in so many other cases? I think not.

Wipe the froth off your mouth.

I'm not signin in from the back of a punkin wagon, you dolt. I'm well aware that most Mexicans are Catholic (as am I). And I am not by any means TOTALLY opposed to immigration from Mexico (but let's be real!).

This woman has TWENTY years of good citizenship and service to her church and Christian school and a son that shows every indication of being a superlative asset to our nation.

So, KMA, and stop buggin me with your irrelevant ranting.
