Just because some immigration clerk gave a pass to such an application doesn't make the paperwork legal. They just didn't get caught.

In that case we shouldn't let anybody in. They might be lying.

That is NOT what is being debated on the immigration bill and you know it.

These arguments are all over the map.

If you're going to pretend to quote me try to get it right. Here's my comment to you, if full:
Perhaps. But only if all questions on the applications and interviews were answered, and answered truthfully. My recollection is that some of the answers were obviously and ridiculously false. Just because some immigration clerk gave a pass to such an application doesn't make the paperwork legal. They just didn't get caught.

I didn't say that "they might be lying". Here's the kind of stuff I was talking about (from a Steyn article, posted on FR today:
