美国使馆来信
12月7日收到冰岛美国使馆的电子邮件,他们已经办好了我1年,可以多次往返的“特殊签证”。要我于2012年元月16日前往冰岛去拿签证。由于我有“非法入境美国”的案底,使这签证的获得迁延了时日。
我想说美国的签证官具有优秀的品德,他们没有象别的国家的官吏一样——遇事推诿,拒签了事。而是敢于负责,处事公道。我赞美他们的人品,不管批复是给签证还是拒签。
同时没有改变对当时那些没有教养、处事糊涂、讲话是非颠倒、调戏被囚墨西哥偷渡妇女、也包括当时在场者众,却视而不见的美国官兵们以应有的轻蔑与鄙视。不恭维美国边境检查站(事发经过详见2007年博文拙作《非法入境美国》)。参照阿布格莱布监狱丑闻,不敢十分恭维小布什的政绩。
出于经济的考量,我不想远赴冰岛去拿这签证了。但这签证对我还是有意义的,下次若我申请美国签证时,它或许平反了我“非法入境”那荒诞、滑稽的案底。
附上美国驻冰岛使馆来信如下:
