NEW YORK - DECEMBER 04: Maria Anne Pilgrim, originally from Canada, cries as she takes the Oath of Allegiance from Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to become an American citizen December 4, 2009 at Ellis Island in New York. Pilgrim served in the US Army as both enlisted and an officer as an occupational therapist, serving part of her time at Walter Reed Medical Center. Napolitano presided over the naturalization of 110 new citizens during a visit to New York.
2. Sorry you had to be sworn in by that left wing hag, I mean hack.
That’s nice Maria, but most Canadians get Honorary Citizenship anyway.
Still remember how many Canadians voluntarily serve in VietNam.
Thanks Las Vegas Ron
Maybe taking her oath from that hag is the reason she was crying. I know I would.
To Maria....welcome to the fight and thank you for your service.
This is a perfect picture to show every person who sneaks into our country. Something they can never feel!
It is also a good one to remind us why NO AMNESTY!
Thread Bump.
Care to add any more BS to the thread?
My pleasure, JD
Amen, may God Bless America and keep us safe——Ha!, I mis typed sage instead of safe :)
Why would she do this now? I feel sorry for her.
GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for saying what I only felt when reading that comment.
I can tear up better than Glenn Beck when I think about the current attacks on our country. LOL
From a fellow Canadian and naturalized U.S. Citizen (Dec. 14, 2007) - WELCOME / Congratulations, and thank you Maria for your service to our country ! We are proud of you !
Look at that woman’s face and tell me that this is not something she has long dreamed about!
So the country is under seige...she may be one of the patriots who work to save it!
Why oh why can’t stories like this be utlized by the gop? This is the ultimate RNC commercial..(if they had the guts)
congratulating all the immigrants who actually worked to get their citizensip, and on some cases waited years!
Go back to DU, troll
Excuse my misspellings..I’m using my phone because hubby is on the computer. Harder to catch the errors, and loading is slower. (Won’t use spell check)
No Problem!
Maybe she had saveral citizen sips to celebrate, I would have!
LoL CHEERS to that!!
How ironic. Leaves one socist country to enter into another one. At least she’ll have free healthcare :)
(sarc)
