Bustamante -- master of the big lie:

During [Bustamante's] speech Sunday he said it was unfair to allow immigrants to serve and die in the armed forces while state policy denies them driver's licenses, as if he were talking about the same population. But U.S. military policy allows only legal immigrants to enlist. Any illegal immigrants who fought and died in the services have done so in violation of the rules.

From a Daniel Weintraub column on immigration law and the race to replace.
