Good grief! What conservatives are going to toss those illegal immigrants brought here through no fault of their own and who are applying and waiting on citizenship papers?

ILLEGAL aliens cannot apply for US citizenship.

In order to become a U.S. citizen, you must:

(1) have been admitted to lawful permanent residence for five years (three years if Green Card obtained through marriage to U.S. citizen);

(2) you must be 18 years old;

(3) you must be maintain continuous residence for five years (three years if Green Card obtained through marriage to U.S. citizen);

(4) you must be physically present in the U.S. for at least half of the 5 years (or half of the 3 years if you obtained a Green Card through a U.S. citizen spouse);

(5) you must be a person of good moral character for the 5 years (or 3 years if the alien obtained a Green Card through a U.S. citizen spouse);

(6) you must demonstrate an elementary level of English (reading, writing, understanding); and,

(7) you must have knowledge and understanding of the fundamentals of history and government of the United States.

I see the litany of the law requirements. So? Perry has not flouted that law. So? Your point is???? Nevermind, you are one of those hopeless place holders with your needle stuck on that broken record called, Waiting for Palin. You have given us, instead, Romney.
