I would like to put in a good word for the Salvadoran Army, who are strong and heroic members of our OIF coalition.

I'd also like to put in a good word for soldiers from Central American countries who entered the U.S. legally, joined our armed forces, are currently deployed in our fight against jihad and are becoming citizens. There was a huge citizenship ceremony in Los Angeles just 2 weeks ago, where 2,500 people became citizens and among them were proud Marines born in Honduras and Mexico. NO MSM COVERAGE WHATSOEVER. None!

Thank you for posting that reminder. Many thousands of non-citizens served in the US armed forces in Vietnam, including my humble self.
I was glad to do it, because it allowed me to become a citizen of this great country, go to school on the GI Bill, and pay $257,700 in federal, state and local taxes last year.

Bravo to those who respect and honor U.S. laws and the American legacy of fighting for liberty.

well....i'll put in a good word for my lovely daughters who are dual citizenship with Brasil while we are at it.

but that doesn't change my views on the magnitude of our current immigration.

respectfully.
