Oh, really? Christopher Hitchens has been waiting since 9/11 and the process is still not complete. That part of the immigration system is just as broken as the rest. The INS was understaffed, technologically backward and way out of date.

Well maybe the INS, now called ICE, is understaffed because they are scurrying around trying to catch illegals who are encouraged by our media, our politicians and their own preidente to act as criminals and cross the border illegaly. The system isn't necessarily broken, it's just overwhelmed since the laws aren't enforced anyway.
