To think my family had to pay several thousand in legal fees, wait a year, pay DHS fees, wait, and finally get accepted.
Break the law and get rewarded.

Exactly what my wife had to do (which really means that I footed the bill). We literally spent a couple days of our time on line, in freezing weather in Newark, NJ, and did all the rest (including several thousand in legal and INS fees) to do things the right way. Wife wants to sue the government to get the money back...I concur, but know that nothing like that will ever come to pass.
This is, among many other things, a complete slap in the face to every legal immigrant and their family. Yet, many are in favor for tribal reasons (kind of like many blacks reflexively back Obama, despite him destroying their opportunities to prosper).
FYI, my wife is a citizen and doesn't vote for the Jackass Party.
