The petition is meaningless, except in this respect: as a demonstration that so many people would support kicking someone out of the country for purely political reasons, without even the fig leaf of a technical offense.
Another straw in the wind is the continuing disregard about the implications of a U.S. collapse in Iraq (with or withoutthe Baker et.al. diplomatic fig-leaf) for our security here at home.
But these studies have, for years, given politicians enough of a fig leaf to sneak what are effectively outright corporate subsidies through the courts without running afoul of the gift clause.
