#2 I tried to get a visa for my (ex) wife to come visit my home in the US (we lived in S.E. Asia at the time). Make a long story short, the financial expense was on the order of $30,000, and after a year of effort we finally had to give up. And this was just to visit -- not to immigrate!!!

The helpful suggestion of a senior INS official? "Get a visa for Mexico, and sneak across the border like everyone else".

True story.

#3 Face it, nobody in Washington really give a damn. If they did, Vicente Fox would be put on notice that the border is SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY until HE fixes it, no NAFTA, no nothing. Technology would be employed in less than 24 hours that would identify anyone coming close to the border. The Minutemen would be given 3 or 4 US Army engineer battalions and enough concertina to reach to the phueching moon.
Washington is simply posturing, stalling, and doing the minimum as usual. It's over.
