Her oldest son served in Vietnam and she said. "I feel very bad when they said I made a fraud. This is what hurts me the most." Or Toribio Chacon. a factory worker from Santa Ana said he became a citizen in March 1996 after taking classes. His brotherinlaw. who took the oath a month earlier. also is a target of the probe. "I am under investigation and I want to know why." he said. "I didnt do anything wrong." The article states. "All four said that they had not yet been contacted by investigators. congressional staff members. although their names. along with photos of their naturalization certificates and birth certificates were forwarded to the investigating Congressional committee last April." So the fact of the matter is. and there are many other articles like this. there is proof time and time again of individuals who were born in the United States. whose children have served in the armed forces of the United States. who are veterans of the United States. and yet constantly their citizenship can be questioned. I want to read some of the comments of some of these other people involved. what they said. These are U.S. citizens. what they said about how they are being treated. "The rightwingers cannot have it both ways. On the one hand they complain that the IRS has wrongfully targeted many citizens for tax investigations. and. on the other hand. they take advantage of instances when the INS and other officials have wrongly targeted naturalized citizens in the exercise of our voting rights." said Ramon Mascorro. who is an Orange County resident targeted in the Dornan investigation. someone who is a legal citizen. "I have worked hard. played by the rules. and become a citizen. Yet I am still investigated because of faulty data collected by the INS and used by the rightwingers to serve their political purpose." stated Virginia Ochoa. So. the fact of the matter is that we have a double standard.
