The Washington Post (Hounding Immigrants,In Prince William the Poisonous Fruit of Congressional Failure) got it right yesterday when it said that the Senate's failure to move immigration reform is to blame for the vitriol that increasingly characterizes the immigration debate in Prince William County.
Another thing to remember when talking with Virginia's Senators Jim Webb and John Warner about their failure to act positively on immigration reform.

Do you have what it takes to become a citizen?
To become a citizen you have to take a civics test.
Those of you out there quick to criticize new Americans about the level of their acculturation might want to be sure that you measure up to the standard that you want to impose on others.
Here's a quick test with 20 sample questions from the 100 used by examiners who interview prospective citizens.
If you score well, remember that you "cheated." Applicants for citizenship don't get multiple choice in the interview. They have to answer the questions without that crutch.
