The continuing saga of the little Vietnamese boys ...

... as I may have mentioned, Máeráed went to Vietnam to find her little brother Micky, but can't bring him home because the US government, in the person of the CIS (those wonderful people who keep terrorists from our shores and are, of course, part of Homeland Security, those wonderful people who oversaw the destruction of New Orleans), has decided to make it as difficult as possible for all concerned.

Máeráed is not alone, there are several others. Here is an interesting little video from CNN about some other folks who are fighting our government to get their son home from Vietnam.

BTW, you may notice at the end of the little piece that the reporter tries to put the best face on the government's reluctance to allow the little boy in their story to come to the US with his parents. I might buy that, but I am familiar with these cases, and in at least one case there are multiple documents providing the info the CIS is concerned about. They stand pat and don't respond.
