		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Given the lack of response to the will of the people by the Washington Elite, it’s High time to toss the “Tea” overboard.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Let&#039;s start by tossing out the ENTIRE application of anyone associated with this lawsuit.  Anyone that ungrateful and demanding should be tossed out of the country so they can think about what they did wrong, and get to the back of the line (in the home country) and start over again. You riot, demonstrate or sue, you are out!

There is no guarantee of how fast the process will proceed, and certainly no guarantee that the newly minted citizens will have their papers by any given election.

You don&#039;t see the applicants that have to languish in their home countries (by virtue of their geographical location) until they get clearance complaining. No, just the ones that are getting most of what they want by sneaking into this country as felons, and then acting like it is their right to be here.

Do we really need this kind of immigrant?  I don&#039;t think so.

This looks suspiciously like what the lawyers do to the courts  today: load them up with frivolous cases, the complain about their client&#039;s inability to get a speedy trial, sometimes getting a dismissed finding.  This is no different than trying to get reasonable scrutiny of legal immigrants to this country.</description>

		<description>Taxation without representation was the reason that our forefathers began the revolution that started this great nation.

		<description>Why is it that the Latin American community has this entitlement mentality?  We already have enough people who think this way.  Let them wait like I did.  15 months from beginning to end of the citizenship process in the DC area.  BTW, I just got it last Tuesday.  The Toby Keith video you get to watch after singing the anthem and reapeating the oath of allegiance was cool!   Now I can upgrade my wife&#039;s immigrant visa and get her and my baby back to me ASAP.  We have been a separated family for 3+ years now.  We could do it.  Why can&#039;t hispanics?  See?  Some of us do it the right way...  I don&#039;t want my kid learning spanish.  English only!  You hear me you uncivilized barbarians?  English and American history all the way baby!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;On March 7th, 2008 at 2:20 pm, lgm said:

    &lt;blockquote&gt;A lawsuit filed Thursday in a federal court in New York by Latino immigrants seeks to force immigration authorities to complete hundreds of thousands of stalled naturalization petitions in time for the new citizens to vote in November.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Note: stalled. The Bush government is just sitting on applications rather than processing them. If they have to do background checks, do them already. It should not take a court order to get the Bushies to do their jobs.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Note: the story is from the NYTimes.  Application processing, particularly in these times of increased scrutiny, is a rate limited process.  Overloading the system, as in this case, does not mean that the system has stopped, as the poorly chosen yet quickly jumped on word &quot;stalled&quot; indicates, but rather, that the process is proceeding as fast as it can.  

Just because a group of applicants demands their applications be reviewed &lt;em&gt;now&lt;/em&gt; means nothing.  They will be processed, in order, as fast as they can.  Suing the government because it doesn&#039;t work fast enough for you doesn&#039;t mean you are justified in doing so.

I would love to see you at your job, particularly if your boss insisted that you increase your job performance 500% or so.  If you couldn&#039;t do it, and could only go at 120%, would you have &quot;stalled?&quot;  No.

And if applicable, you would be crying to your shop steward.</description>

		<description>What does it matter - as I see it, there are three possibilities: McCain, Clinton or Obama. All three of them are for amnesty, so why the panic to be able to vote? - the US is screwed no matter what.</description>

		<description>Tre, hole-in-the-floor wasn&#039;t as bad as being given a durian, my first night there.  I ate anything they gave me, but passed on that one...much to the Malaysians&#039; amusement.</description>

My wife is from Kuala Krau. Malaysia is a nice country to visit. I&#039;ve been to KL, Penang, Johor, and down into Singapore. The dollar/ringit exchange rate was good (at least then) making it a cheap place to visit.
The hardest thing for me to get accustomed to was that hole-in-the-floor bathroom (go ahead and laugh).</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“The reality is that large numbers of Latinos will not be able to vote in the elections because of these delays.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Tough crap.  Can they even read the ballots in English???

I&#039;m sure, though, that we&#039;ll be reading soon that the three un-American Latino-pandering candidates will find a way to expedite what they will call &quot;an absolute travesty that is incredibly unfair to the Latino/Hispanic/Mexican/Guatemalan/Honduran/Oaxacan/El Salvadoran/(or whichever Flavor-of-the-Moment) community.&quot;</description>

		<description>Tre, my wife is still trying to get a green card, and she&#039;s been here for 10 years now. They just keep upping her visa. Strange situation, all the way around. I know a family in Malaysia, of Chinese ancestry.  They live in Ipoh.  Very nice city and a nice country to visit. I&#039;ve been to KL, Penang, Ipoh and Sitiwan(sp).</description>

Sounds like my wife. She&#039;s from Malaysia of Chinese ancestry. She has a green card and her permanent residency. That&#039;s all she wants. She can come and go at will to visit her family.

She isn&#039;t interested in citizenship, though I don&#039;t know why. She&#039;s not interested in voting in our elections, but that&#039;s alright, since she&#039;s a little bit liberal, though not a stark raving moonbat type liberal.</description>

		<description>Well, I hope they hurry up with the process.  My wife and I have been working on her applications for 18 months now, and we&#039;re still waiting.  They still haven&#039;t figured out that she and I are in Virginia, not Indonesia. All we need is an interview.  All I do is keep filling out applications, sometimes the same ones again, send more money and wait, until the letter comes again. This comes from trying to do things nice and legal...and she was a widow from an American husband previous(died from a traffic accident). Meanwhile, an illegal would have had a car, house and nice job by now.  Makes one wonder.</description>
