I waited for someone to post this but no one did. I never have posted before so keep that in mind before you flame.

Donna Rice [Hughes] has gone on and done something with her life. Gary Hart is still an idiot.

Find out who the guy's congressman is - hopefully, it will be a Republican. If the Marines give this guy a pass - and they don't let much get passed them - then he ought to be okay for citizenship. This is just more of the INS garbage.

No flames from me. I'll ping a few Marines to see what they know about this, and what they'd suggest.

Non-US citizens should not be members of the US armed forces -- period.

inadequate character over something he did as a teenager. But I guess not inadequate enough to put on the Marine uniform and prevent him from fighting and dying for this country.

Hmmm...let's see ... Whose judgment do I trust more, the United States Marine Corps or the INS. That's a tough one. Who has a better track record of selfless service, integrity, and success in mission accomplishment? Dunno, this is a close one...

This is all the information you have on this guy, and you want a force to get him citizenship... I don't think so!

Why don't we find out why he is not thought about in a high esteem first.

I know of other marines who have denounced their citizenship, are you sure he is not one of those??

I saw the report. If he wins a Bronze Star, he's a shoe in.

I heard the interview. Here is a guy putting his life on the line for the dumb asses in the INS and for us while O.J. Simpleton is enjoying a game of golf and snuffing cocaine with some ditzy broad.

Lets hope someone brings the plight of this brave Marine to the attention of George W.

I seen the same interview. Although my first response is to condemn the INS and feel sorry for the Marine. My better judgement said if this marine were to be one that was just linked to a terrorist action, I would be screaming at the top of my lungs saying what in ther H*** is this alien doing in the U.S.Marines,

Can we have it both ways?

What is the solution for this (what seems to be) a possible future U.S. Citizen left out in the cold.?

This is what can happen when non-citizens are allowed to server in the military which I've never really understood. I hope the INS's position can be reversed.

I saw that interview and I think we should all write our Congresscritters and tell them to give him citizenship. If he's good enough to fight for our country then I believe he's due our thanks with citizenship being given to him.

The INS seems to be pretty good at handling normal people, who are generally law-abiding, like this guy, Elian Gonzales, and the Canadian who drove 50 feet across the border to get some gas.

The trouble they had is dealing with the bad guys. They're not too good at that.

The only flames are the one coming out of my butt, right now.

If has been making his way through the military establishment in an honorable way.....someone send me the name of the INS agent in charge...and the flames will all be theirs. This is deplorable action.

This guy is good enough to fight and die but not be a citizen and vote? This (if true) is garbage. Bush ought to fire everybody in the INS and start over from scratch.

He needs to contact his US Senators.

A letter from a US Senator usually leads to a fresh review of an immigration case.

The INS reverses itself when political pressure is exerted.

Florida US Senator Graham wrote a letter on behalf of one of my employees, and his citizenship application were review again and approved.

His original application to become a US citizen had been rejected, because he had a misdemeanor conviction for having been found with a marihuana cigarrette, dating back to his college days.
