Wow, named after a fictional character and philosopher in José Hernández's work! Pretty fancy. Martin_fierro, if you're a lawyer who distrusts lawyers, you're my kinda lawyer!

Great meeting you! You're definitely one of Freeper's finest. 1999 -- that's early by my 2001 standards to join. I get so jealous you all found us sooner.

I met Michelle Maulkin at CPAC -- she's incredibly generous with her time, about taking photos with people and talking to them. I've listened to what she says about immigration, and I guess I don't understand her to say "close the borders." I like the fact that we're a country of immigrants and I think that's part of what makes us great: no one's more patriotic than the lawfully naturalized immigrants-turned-citizens, in my experience. I just like controlled immigration where the naturalization process happens lawfully, so essentially we can screen (for criminals and such). Do you agree with that?
