( And before I get called heartless by some of the liberals: I am an Army vet and my dad is actually a LEGAL immigrant from a foreign country. He went through all the proper channels before I was even born to be able to live and work in the country legally. I have no mercy for those who choose the illegal route. )

That way he can get his father to stay here just like Obama's Aunti...
True. My nephew is in the military but that wouldn't justify either of his parents breaking laws. If my brother-in-law embezzled money from his employer, he should still be prosecuted, if my sister drives drunk or shoplifts, why would she expect her son's career would give her a pass around all the laws?

I totally agree. This is one of many attempts to legalize the status of illegal aliens simply due to the military service of a family member. If we pardon illegal aliens, we must also pardon citizen prisoners whose family members are serving in our military. It’s absolute BS.
Where do we draw the line?
I am a vet and yet no one is saying hey because your a vet your family is entitled to a free pass for crimes they commit.
So what if the father of a vet gets caught shop lifting? Free pass?
What if the father of a vet gets caught committing fraud? Oh yeah this one was.
Ok how about ID theft?
Tax evasion?
How about human smuggling? Oh yeah thats why he was deported the first time.
Ok if a legal immigrant gets caught doing any of the above they can expect to be deported.
If an applicant has any convictions they can expect to have their application rejected.
Whats the deal here? The son is a Marine and thank you for your service son but that isn't a get out of jail free card for your familiy.
Last I checked once someone enters our country illegally and gets deported but returns again it is a felony!
Allegedly. Yet they do it over and over.
It's funny how the bleeding hearts cry we shouldn't punish the children for their parent's illegality when it comes to the Dream Act, yet then cry an illegal parent should get a "pass" because their child served in the military.
No wonder they wanted a military service component in the Nightmare Act.
Interesting to see the two sides of this one.............

then this.........

He was previously deported to Guatemala in 1995 pursuant to a judicial order issued by a U.S. District Court judge in Georgia as a result of his criminal conviction in federal court for alien smuggling
Yep just another poor law abiding illegal living his life here quietly - sigh
