I agree on the Law & Order comment, but throw too much “24” in for good measure. Who gets to decide whether he never meant it? I love the idea of going all Jack Bauer on him, but keep in mind who is running the show these days, and just how badly they wanted this to be a Tea Party activist. If we are a nation of laws and not men, then making it up as we go along is dangerous business.
I just don’t get the “decision” about “whether he meant it”.
Is he the @$$-clown who swore an oath to the US on such-and-such a date in order to be a US citizen? Did he not “attack” the US in a terrorist bombing, killing and injuring large numbers of US citizens at random on such-and-such a date? Is there some way to see this as NOT a terrorist attack? I’m not even sure that this is even necessary. I forget what’s sworn to for citizenship, but I can’t believe candidates don’t have to agree to abide by US law.
I don’t think there is any “decision”. Citizenship is a Deal. Keep your oath, or you DON’T HAVE IT. Any time you break the agreement, that’s the end of it. At least that’s how I see it.
If that’s not how courts and lawyers see it, then granting citizenship to the world’s refugies and opening our borders and communities to them is just too dangerous and should be halted at once.
