"Prosecuting terror-related targets using Category II offenses and others is often an effective method--and sometimes the only available method--of deterring and disrupting potential terrorist planning and support activities,"explained the DOJ in the document that listed the defendants. Now I interpret that last bit of professional criminal thinking (coming from a professional criminal in our Attorney General) to mean that if they reduce the severity or intensity of the crimes being charged (to Category II) it might ("sometimes be the only available method") of deterring and disrupting potential terrorist planning and support activities" meaning that if they were charged with Category I crimes, they would probably spend the rest of their days in prison, but on Category II they'll be out on the street in no time and some will be automatically granted citizenship, but all will be able to cast votes for Obama with the help of labor union thugs, ACORN and the Black Panthers. Naturally in an Administration as rotten and corrupt as Obama's there are always ways and means to accomplish whatever is desired to be done. The CNS News report continued "Based upon our analysis of USCIS and DOJ data, three of the individuals on the DOJ list received U.S. citizenship after their convictions," stated the GAO audit report. "Two were convicted of unlawful production of an identity document and one was convicted of transferring funds out of the country in violation of U.S. sanctions." Now those two crimes committed by a U. S. citizen would land him in the slammer for an extended period of time; and if he was an immigrant from a country not in favor of this Administration, it may also mean deportation. But hey, we're talking about "friends" of the Administration where sure votes for the liberal Socialist Democrats are guaranteed so even if the culprits don't have a particularly savory background for the past five years as required on applications for naturalization, no problemo, just keep looking even further back than five years. According to the USCIS, the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) says that in determining good moral character, the federal government can look further back than five years, adding that it "may take into consideration as a basis for such determination the applicant's conduct and acts at any time prior to that period." Did you get that part of the last sentence about "any time prior" to the five year period? Hey he must have been a good infant with no known violations of the law. Bingo! He qualifies; give him his citizenship. That dear readers, is Obama Socialism and getting votes for his reelection in 2012 AT YOUR EXPENSE. They won't be living in his neighborhood unless he loses and moves back to Chicago where he will be surrounded by crooks and criminals with the famous criminal Mayor, Rahm Emanuel in charge.
