This really ticks me off.

Petty bureaucracy. Tell me about it. We're used to that sort of thing on this side on the Pond.

He's a citizen.  The government just doesn't know it.

Pretty much this. 

Judge him for what he did, not where he's from.

When I moved here (31 years ago) I got a flimsy little pink slip that I could show at the border to show that I am a permanent resident. Over the years that piece of paper disintegrated and no border official had ever asked me to show it. Untill the 9/11 thing and in fact only in the last 4 years the powers that be have only begun asking for this. Now I find out recently that I was supposed to check in and reapply every 4 years for some sort of plasticy residence card. Meanwhile my US passport expired. Which I am working on because I need that for point of origen. I am trapped here untill its all sorted. I know how this veteran feels!

Thanks Ozzy. I think!  I'll work it out after I get through all the red tape.
