The illegals that piss me off are the ones who don't work, who take advantage of the system and basically churn out babies while draining the government.
I'm legal and it's still really hard to get my citizenship. I'm aiming to get it before 2008 so I can help vote this administration out.

RC touched on this, but I don't think this is really the feeling at all. It's just another idea in trying to stem off illegal immigration. The government feels like enlisting citizens in this way will help the effort.
Good luck in getting your citizenship - I think it's great that you're going through the process and going about things the right (and legal) way. I helped a friend of mine study for the citizenship exam in college, so that gave me a glimpse into the work people do to become citizens.
