Deena Gilbey is a British subject whose late husband worked on the 84th floor: On the morning of Sept. 11, instead of fleeing, he returned to the building to help evacuate his co-workers. A few days later, Mrs. Gilbey receives a letter from the INS noting that as she's now widowed her immigration status has changed and she's obliged to leave the country along with her two children (both U.S. citizens)

. . . Why should illegal Mexicans be the unique beneficiaries of a sentimental blather about "family values" to which U.S. immigration is otherwise notoriously antipathetic?

Whatever happend to Mrs. Gilbey?

I dunno. But you can be sure of one thing: Mrs. Gilbey doesn't belong to a certain ethnic group whose votes politicians are desirious of soliciting. If she did, its to safe say she could remain here, legal or not. Our immigration is system is as susceptible to manipulation for political ends as its ineffective in protecting the country's borders and upholding its national sovereignty.

I guess "anchor babies" only work if you are illegal.
