This letter was forwarded to me by a a friend of mine. Kind of an interesting idea.
BECOMING ILLEGAL
(Actual letter from an Iowa resident which he sent to his Senator)

Dear Senator Harkin,
As a native Iowan and excellent customer of the Internal Revenue Service, I am writing to ask for your assistance. I have contacted the Department of Homeland Security in an effort to determine the procedure for becoming an illegal alien and they referred me to you.
My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S. Citizen to illegal alien stems from the bill which was recently passed by the Senate and for which you voted. If my understanding of this bill and it's provisions is accurate, as an illegal alien who has been in the United States for five years, all I need to do to become a citizen is pay a $2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last five years
I know a good deal when I see one and I am anxious to get the process started before everyone figures it out. Simply put, those of us who have been here legally have had to pay taxes every year so I'm excited about the prospect of avoiding two years of taxes in return for a $2000 fine. Is there any way I can apply to be illegal retroactively? This would yield an excellent result for me and my family because we paid heavy taxes in both 2004 and 2005.
Additionally, as an illegal alien I could begin using the local emergency room as my primary health care provider. Once I have stopped paying premiums for medical insurance, my accountant figures I will save almost $10,000 a year.
Another benefit in gaining illegal status would be that my daughter would receive preferential treatment relative to her law school applications, as well as "in-state" tuition rates for many colleges throughout the United States for my son.
Lastly, I understand that illegal status would relieve me of the task of renewing my drivers license and making those burdensome car insurance premiums. This is very important to me given that I still have college age children driving my car.
If you would provide me with an outline of the process to become illegal (retroactively if possible) and copies of the necessary forms, I would be most appreciative.
Thank you for your assistance.
Your Loyal Constituent,

As humerous as this is, IT AIN'T FUNNY. I have been a loyal supporter of President Bush and to this day believe in his passion for fighting the radical Islamic thugs in the world, but I have lost total faith in him to protect OUR borders. I believe there should be a fence from the Pacific ocean to the Gulf of Mexico. On OUR side of the fence should be a deep channel full of land mines or water full of alligatiors, something, anything to stop this invasion. If Canada doesn't like it we should build one there as well. My four issues to be elected to office!!!!!
1. Are you willing to stand up and fight the Radical Islamic elements around the world? To kill our enemy before they come here and kill our families.
2. Are you going to do something to close and secure OUR borders.
3. Are you going to stop using my tax dollars to take care of the people who are here illegally and send them back to where they came from. Stop paying for their healthcare when I can't afford it for myself. Stop sending their kids to school free with my taxes and with free meals, while they are driving fancy cars, when I can't afford it for my family.
4. Are you going to fix Social Security? IT'S BROKEN AND ISN'T GOING TO GET BETTER! (Think about how much will go to the illegals if this bill is passed)
