I live in an area that is mostly immigrants, including a majority of the small businesses. The vast majority of them came here and worked their asses off, asking for no special treatment.

I concede that all of what we know about Omar is from an article by someone with an axe to grind, and for all we know he's a fictional construct, but I doubt it. I also doubt he's a crook.

Anybody can make up a story, and God knows we get enough bull hockey out of the Man on the Street over there, but I am working this thread on the assumption that he exists, is who he says he is, and has this potential problem, because otherwise the actual discussion falls flat.

My only point to Raoul is that the U.S. is being unfairly condemned for what MIGHT happen to this man. In early March, Homeland Security said it was going to loosen up these rules, but I don't have details yet. I would really like to see some followup on this case.
