evidently the biggest idiot and embarassment in the history of the United States Senate has never heard of this :

Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986

-legalized illegal immigrants who entered the United States before January 1, 1982 and had resided there continuously with the penalty of a fine, back taxes due, and admission of guilt; candidates were required to prove that they were not guilty of crimes, that they were in the country before January 1, 1982, and that they possessed minimal knowledge about U.S. history, government, and the English language.

About three million (estimated) illegal immigrants were granted legal status through this act

please mccain, do America a favor and resign now.

[Joe Brower]

Beat me to it. McCain remembers this legislation full well.

He was a hero once; today he is both a liar and a traitor.
