Huh? Regarding the terms 'illegal alien' and 'undocumented alien'? They are interchangeable, bjs, and apply to any alien prior to their admission or permanent parole into the US.

Pretty tough to find the word "ILLEGAL" in the Cuban Adjustment Act I see...

BTW, whatever happened to your E.O. 12807 nonsense? Looks like you are hiding from that also.

Which has absolutely no bearing on the use of the terms, bjs. I don't perceive either term as being inherently pejorative. Do you?

I'm not hiding from anything, bjs. Are you getting a case of secondary umbrage from our friend Luis?

What E.O. 12807 nonsense, bjs? It remains the genesis of the wet feet / dry feet policy, what more can I say? Signed by G.H.W. Bush in 1992, and contains no exceptions for any nationalities. Take a look at the USCG site, if you want to know what basis they use for their interdictions at sea.
