We knew we shouldn’t have asked what President Shrubbery would aim to fuck up next, because here it is (via Hot Air): WASHINGTON — The Bush administration will announce increases in immigration application fees Wednesday that will nearly double the cost of citizenship and almost triple the cost of becoming a legal permanent resident.
…
Under the increases, which cover almost all immigration benefits, the cost of bringing a foreign fiance or fiancee will jump from $170 to $455. The price tag for a green card, or a legal permanent resident visa, will rise from $325 to $930, and the cost of citizenship papers will increase from $330 to $595.
So while Jorge Arbusto and his Traveling Tijuana RINO Show are busy handing out the store for free to illegal immigrants, the poor schmucks playing by the rules, also known as legal immigrants, are herewith cordially invited by the Chief Sombrero and his Mariachis in DC to fuck themselves while paying through the nose.
What a wonderfully responsible message to transmit, Gee Dubya, you immoral, lying, backstabbing sack of rancid ratshit: “Follow the rules, get reamed with a 2×4. Break every single one of them, get the whole kit and kaboodle for free!”
Douchebaggy Duke of Jackassery.
My note:
This is going to directly affect some wonderful Zimbabwe friends of ours. They had graduated school here and both were working very good jobs. Two children in grade school. The immigration people got on their case (like they don't have enough illegal alien criminals to go after). My friend had to sell all their possessions and make a quick exit to Canada. He hates it in Toronto....too cold and the people are not as friendly as here in Pulaski. He plans on becoming a Canadian citizen and then trying to legally get back in the states and become American citizens.
