Are you being insincere, or did you not get what I was saying, Phan?

I have no idea why you are saying this to me.

Omega M. wanted to know why we couldn't deny citizenship to babies born in the U.S. to two non-citizen parents. I told her why.

If you think Congress has the power to declare that persons born in the U.S. (except those not subject to U.S. jurisdiction) are not citizens, could you please cite the authority for that contention?

Ah, I hadn't read his post, I thought he was proposing an expansion by adding the rule you quoted.

Why can't the law just be that anyone born to at least one parent who is a citizen is automatically a citizen?

Ah, that explains it. I couldn't wrap my mind around what you were referring to. Sorry for the confusion - I should have quoted the previous sentence.

Because you're a member of society partaking in the benefits of that society.

Because you don't want to go to jail.

Because you shouldn't be dishonest.

Um, I'm a man, not a woman. I'm flattered that I was able to fool you, but I always thought the tone of my posts and the topics I post about signalled "man" to everyone. Oh well.

Uh oh....we'll now have to change the way we communicate with you, stop assuming your boyfriend is posting for you when you do a good one, stop interupting you, and take you much more seriously now.

No need to apologize; I was just surprised that it happened.
