Not that I know of. I was being facetious, almost to the extreme.

I'm kind of stunned you R's want the Government to have the ability to do that.
Although I have voted republican a few times (moreso on a local/state level then federal), I'm usually registered as a democrat because of local interests more than anything else. Am I conservative? Yeah. But repubs as a whole are just as plastic as dems. Once you get to a certain level they are all pliable IMO.
As far as the visa application process, it has nothing to do with religion. It would make sense to me to at least verify addresses, don't you think? What would it take to click on Google Maps or something (insert a lol here). Something like 30 seconds, if you're a slow typer, to type in an address into some sort of program to see if it exists. If it takes a while for this process to happen anyway, what is 30 seconds more? Will it create a burden on the process? How much more time could it actually create per individual? Will it need a vast increase in labor?
I wouldn't think so, but again, these are questions that I really think are valid and wouldn't put anybody into a tough position to answer, no matter their political affiliation.
