#1 They could find ways to make this more humane. Maybe have Ed McMahon show up at their door and say "Congratulations! You may already be a Mexican!"

#2 Grandma should return, too.

If she's a US citizen, she'll get SS and live like a queen there.

Well, I see a reason for the Airbus behemoth.

What happens if a country digs in its' heels and refuses landing rights?

#3 "swept up record numbers of illegal immigrants who have committed no crimes other than violations of visa limits and other immigration laws. "

I seem to remember a bunch of people whose only violations of the law was to overstay thier visa. Last I saw of them, they had hijacked some airplanes and slammed them into various buildings...

#4 What I don't get is why she didn't get a "green card" - become a permanent resident. Even if she was illegal, being married to a citizen and having US-born children is an automatic in.

#5 probably had a criminal record and couldn't get the card. Since she and hubs were doing the drug ring around the kids, her concern for them is a little late, no?

#7 She did have a 'green card' or a permanent resident card. It appears they they rescended(sp?) it and shipped her drug-dealing ass back. Or perhaps they found that she had lied on her application.

I seem to recall there being a question on the application like 'Do you intend to deal drugs in the united states'....

And she won a LIFETIME BAN! WHOOPIE! There are procedure for appealing a ban of course but I dont think the Embassy can just set it aside.

#9 Beating on Moore and Soros is one thing, completely dismissing the needs of kids is cruel. The tone of this thing is interesting. The need to fight terror in as ruthless a manner as possible is clear. Dismissing the needs of kids is another matter.

#10 Send the kids back too. We don't need them here either.

#11 Most of those deported - more than 70% in 2004 - have been returned to Mexico.

Considering how many illegal aliens are estimated to be residing in the U.S. at this time, the actual number deported to Mexico can't be too big.

Dismissing the needs of kids is another matter.

Sorry, but the appeal-to-compassion approach no longer works for a lot of us. You see, one too many illegal immigrants have used their kids as "anchors" in the expectation that they'll be allowed to stay, and quite frankly, it's bullshit.

Everything has its limits, even compassion.

#12 "Dismissing the needs of kids is another matter."

-I think that was her fault, cause meet effect.
Overall I think the gov't did a fine job in looking after the needs of kids. They kicked this drug dealing bitch outta the country didn't they?

#13 A bit player in a drug-smuggling ring and failing to appear for a hearing. Husband got 10 years in prison. -- I think it's just as well the kids are separated from the parents. And if Mom is 27, Grandmom is probably not old enough to be on Social Security.

Oh, and if this "bit player in a drug-smuggling ring" was in Singapore she'd be executed.

#14 If she cared about her kids, she wouldn't have been dealing drugs.

#15 Ditto someone! I dont want the dismiss the needs of the kids but I am basically sick and the whole 'for the children' bullshit. We cannot allow the illegals to stay basically 'for the children' otherwise all they would have to do is spawn a few kids and they have it made. If she really cared about her kids she whouldn't have been dealing drugs.

SHE is the one who was dealing. SHE is the one who violated her permanent residence. SHE is the one who is to blame. I feel sorry for the kids but perhaps they are better off.
