re: Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rules unanimously that illegals can be deported

She actually was at a high risk of getting it based on genetics. And no matter how careful she was, it could still have happened.

Nope. Say what you want about whether he should or should not have had 19 kids (and that bizarre organization with which they were affiliated), they were all with the same woman, he was married to her before they conceived their first, and he worked to suppor...

[quote]How could they revoke their pensions as well?[/quote]
Not sure how. In FedGov you can be fired for malfeasance (yes, it occasionally happens) and you still get your FERS pension (or CSRS if you're really an old coot) plus whatever your vested in within TSP....
