Because of the backlog at the passport office, her passport will not be ready in time. She will be travelling with my other daughter and myself. We all have UK passports. Can we come back in the US on those?

from Teddy Roosevelt in 1907:

"In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Hi -- I am sponsoring my wife from within Canada.
We submitted the complete application in Oct2006. We recevied a confirmation that our case is being processed in January2007.

1- when is she going to get the approval in principle? and when is she going to get the final permanent residency?

Also, we were told that she cannot leave Canada while she her application is being processed. For urgent reasons, she has to leave Canada for a whole month in Dec2007. We were told that the real problem is that if she leaves Canada ... (i) her PR application might be cancelled, and (ii) she might be denied re-entry into Canada.

2- How can she leave Canada and come back without her application being cancelled? First we thought of leaving and returning through the US but because we are going to LatinAmerica, so we are still in the risk of not being accepted for re-entry into Canada. What can we do?

Thanks

Why should someone who is here illegally be given free medical services at hospitals but natural born citizens are not?

Illegals are given better medical treatment than our own veterans at veteran's hospitals across the country who have poor services. They are not getting the treatment they should be getting. Why is this? And what should be done to stop illegals from receiving the medical care our own citizens should be receiving instead?

I know a lot of you will say it's inhumane for hospitals to turn anyone away but shouldn't these services be reserved for the legal citizens of this country? The ones who really need it, not a lady who is giving birth - a pregnancy that could have been prevented in the first place by using birth control?

Why is it considered a 'hate crime' when a white commits a crime against a black or a Hispanic person but it's not considered a 'hate crime' when a Black or Hispanic person commits a crime against a white person? I thought we were all supposed to be equal?

And why is it considered a 'hate crime' when a heterosexual person commits a crime against a homosexual person but it's not considered a 'hate crime' when a homosexual person commits a crime against a heterosexual person?

I was just thinking about this because like the Roman Empire the US too is doing exactly the same sort of things that destroyed the Romans. Along with miscegenation and cultural and racial oblivion they are also spreading themselves too thinly across too many spectrums, the Romans with their Empire stretched themselves across the Middle East and they destroyed their central leadership in the end.

They thought they could blend all races and creeds together and all that happend in the end was the destruction and the end of the Empire on the whole, racially and also culturally. They became too liberal and relaxed about their moral standing and in the end destroyed themselves in the process just like America is now with its arrogance and supercilious disregard for normality and sensibility.

A high end culture reaches a point then implodes and what we see now in America with its high immigration rates is exactly what happend in Rome and will end up happening here too.

Email Article Most Popular Change Type Size Migrants' temporary departure supported

Momentum is growing on Capitol Hill for immigration-reform legislation that would require some undocumented immigrants to leave the country to apply for citizenship.

The provision, known as "touchback," is increasingly seen as a way to garner more conservative support and deflect the politically damaging charge that lawmakers are providing amnesty for people who have broken the law.

"We recognize that touchback is a powerful political statement," said Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., co-sponsor of a bipartisan comprehensive reform bill that is expected to be introduced Thursday. advertisement




Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., once cool to the idea of touchback, is keeping an open mind. Running for president, he has met stiff opposition to illegal immigration among GOP voters.

Working closely with the White House, lawmakers are hoping to write immigration proposals that will draw broad bipartisan support.

"The touchback provision is not my idea, but for many, it's critical to the immigration reform bill," said Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., who said she won't oppose an otherwise positive bill because of it.

Article Most Popular Change Type Size Judges who ignore no-bail law may as well give you the finger
Laurie Roberts
Republic columnist
Mar. 21, 2007 12:00 AM

It's now been 17 days since Jocabed Dominguez-Torres was arrested and accused of getting drunk, running a red light and killing a 20-year-old Peoria man. Seventeen days since the courts were notified that she's in this country illegally and thus can't be released from jail under a new law approved by voters.

So what, you might ask, have our judges and commissioners done to comply with the overwhelming will of the people?

They set bail. Then they reconsidered. And lowered her bail. advertisement




In judicial speak, I think they just gave Arizona voters the finger.

It's been just over two weeks since Scott and Patty Miller lost their only son, Chris, and were ushered into the court system. Their reaction thus far?

"Complete dismay and total loss of confidence," Scott told me Tuesday. "For us to have gone through the last two weeks trying to deal with the grieving process all the while having to fight the legal system just to do what the voters said was the right thing to do to me is just unconscionable."

Chris Miller was killed just after 2 a.m. on March 4 when Peoria police say Dominguez-Torres, 22, ran a red light and crashed into the car in which he was riding. Her blood-alcohol level was 0.20 percent, 2 1/2 times the legal limit.

Peoria police notified court officials that she's here illegally and that she admitted to buying forged resident and Social Security cards on the streets of Phoenix.

Yet Commissioner Kathleen Mead set her bond at $150,000. This, despite Proposition 100.

You remember Prop. 100. It's a new law that denies bond in cases such as this to people here illegally.

It passed last November in every county of the state. It passed by the widest margin of any proposition on the ballot. It passed because 78 percent of this state's voters decreed that it shall be the law of the land.

Just not, apparently, in Maricopa County Superior Court.

After Mead set Dominguez-Torres' bond, a court spokeswoman explained to me that commissioners can't deny bond on the say-so of the police or even the suspect. They must get word from an official source, she said, which is tough given that bail must be set within 24 hours of an arrest and the people in Immigration and Customs Enforcement who could give the high sign don't work weekends.

Mead had to set Dominguez-Torres' bond on a Sunday.

The next day, March 5, the courts got that official word from ICE when they put an immigration hold on Dominguez-Torres.

"I don't know how much more official we can get," ICE spokeswoman Lauren Mack told me.

Yet five days later, Commissioner Michael Barth lowered the bond to $50,000.

On Monday, a Maricopa County prosecutor asked the court's presiding criminal judge, James Keppel, to change Domiguez-Torres' status to non-bondable, pointing out that our state Constitution now requires it. Keppel's response: "I'm not the Court of Appeals."

He's holding a hearing Thursday morning to decide whether he has the authority to overturn Barth's bond.

No word on whether anyone in the court system is worried about whether they have the authority to overturn voters.

Neither Keppel nor the court's presiding judge, Barbara Mundell, returned calls to explain how the arbiters of law can just ignore it.

However, courts spokeswoman J.W. Brown e-mailed me to let me know that judges are sworn to follow the law.

"Several times each week, they order individuals charged with serious felonies be held without bond," she wrote, "when information presented to the court shows the proof is evident or the presumption is great that the person committed the alleged offense and is in the U.S. illegally."

And yet Dominguez-Torres remains in jail on that $50,000 bond. If her family puts up $5,000, she'll be taken by ICE to a detention center, and if she doesn't fight deportation, she could be back in Mexico by April Fools' Day.

Fitting, don't you think?

Let me ask all of my "respectful" anwerers something. Everyone is quick to jump on and talk badly about illegals and mexicans, completely confusing the two. Illegals does not immediately mean "Mexican", it just so happens that the border to Mexico is right next to the US. If it were China next to the US we'd be ranting about the Chinese, right? Are you more upset that OUR US government makes it easy for illegal immigrants to buy homes and get health care or that they are Mexican?

Looking at all the non-whites flooding into the US at present it wont be too long until the US starts resembling their own homelands which are on the most part third world and crime ridden, Mexico,Africa etc.

Once an anvanced racial majority becomes a minority it will default to majority racial constructs ie the majority immigrants way of life. Would the common European in the US prefer to live in Mexico\Africa or a European advanced civilisation like the US of present. You can't have it both ways

The non-white majority will become the default civilisaton of the US and that means their own constructs and cultural likes and dislikes, as opposed to the American\European authoritarian order. The truth is America, you arent having the cream of the crop of immigrants you are having the most crime ridden and dispondent races flooding in, no huge amounts of Japanese or Chinese its a flood of third world opportunisits eradicating first world cultural brilliance.

Russia will win
