Backing up a little bit, Boshko, why does she need a Visa? You said you wanted her to come meet your parents... can't she just come visit for a week or two (normal vacation travel)? That shouldn't require a Visa, should it?

Considering the fact that is what most of the article is about, I find the pity party going on in this thread more than a little sickening.Originally posted by Arrian
Are you really that dense that you think the post-9/11 crackdown has only effected illegal immigrants?

But ok, you're stuck in the past. I understand.

See-- this article could have been written positively about the Irish success story. Ireland is a great example. Why the heck did they have to write it as some sort of US failure?You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment

Nope, for Korean citizens you now need a visa to even set foot in America. She can't even have a layover in an American airport on her way to Toronto (would've saved her money if she couldOriginally posted by Arrian

Because the New York Times feels like it has to apologize for America. I find such stuff odious.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Dan,
While the NYT takes it to an extreme, what does it say if we never apologize for anything, ever. We're always right! LALALALALALALA! That's the flip side, which I find odious.

You gusy are dense. The point isn't the immigrants or the legality of them.
Them point is that people are leaving the US for IRELAND, possibly the worlds greater wholesale supplier of people... thats a real role reversal. Its also very sad for the US.Comment

That's the issue here, not the flipside.While the NYT takes it to an extreme
Luckily, the New York Times has a rather limited circulation relative to reputable papers.
Why? I have nothing but happiness for these folks that they can make good in their homeland for the first time in centuries.Its also very sad for the US.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Well Koreans are smart and are getting revenge. Huge numbers (there's a big business in travel packages to do this) of pregnant Koreans are travelling to America to have their kids so that their kids will be American citizens (you're an American citizen if you're born there even if your parents aren't and if you were only there for the day that you're born). One of my old adult students got pissed at her husband when he wouldn't pay for her to go to America to have her kid.Originally posted by Arrian

The NYT doesn't exist in a vacuum, Dan. Neither do the publications that spout USA! USA! USA! all the time. They are connected, reacting to (or rather against) one another.
Jimmy,
It might say things about the US, but from what I understand about Ireland, they've really made great strides. I think it is primarily an Irish success story, not an American failure.
The NYT would've been better served to write an article about how we refuse entry to our "allies" in South Korea unless they get a Visa, which apparently requires a college degree and a bundle 'o money. Just to visit.

Ack, after reading that last post by Boshko, the Visa policy starts making some sense. Looks to me like Koreans have other Koreans to blame for the restrictions, Boshko.
