Mr. Chairman, since this member likes to politicize things, I'm required to point out that when the government of which he was a part took office in 1993, the overall inventories for immigration were well under 100,000. When they left office in 2006, it was up to nearly a million cases. The processing times that he talks about, in any stream and in any mission, largely developed under the government of which he was a part. So I'm not going to take that kind of politicization.
Our officials do their very best, in tough circumstances--
