"Illegals"? I'm sorry, but that's not a noun.

Hey honey bunches of oats, we won Texas Fair and Square! If they want to live here legally lawfully, and prosperously, they're going to have to go through the same process everyone else goes through. Or pick fruit for the rest of their lives. No wonder my tomatoes haven’t been coming in. We need more illegal immigrants!

don't you read the times-- illegal immigrants pay into social security about 7 billion/year and will never see a dime. alos,they take jobs most americans will not AND right now out west, big time farmers are begging for illegal immigrants to work for them b/c there is a shortage. it's great that you followed the rules. good for you. the thing is, mexicans shouldn;t have to follow the rules. the us stole texas and most of the southwest from mexico. this land is thier land!

This is one of the most bizarre news stories I've heard in a while -- especially the part about the guy with BBQ sauce on his shirt. This will so be on Law & Order next season.

You should never feel stupid for doing the right thing. Don't worry too much about stuff you can't control. Cheer up.

Ming- it is worth it though- you are not (I assume) delivering food, not out $60K, and most importantly- not getting deported. Hold your head up high. And Welcome to the ole US of A. PS- totally agree with ya

"This country really must enforce its immigration laws" Yeap, wouldn’t want people to come into the country and take our good paying jobs like landscaping and picking fruit.

This poor guy's experience aside, this country really must enforce it's immigration laws. It is getting rediculous and unfair to people like myself who had to wait for years to become a citizen while a million people sneak in per month and are never prosecuted for first breaking the law, evading taxation, etc, etc. Makes me feel stupid for doing things the right way and holding up my life in the process.
