Washington (CNN)The Justice Department has instructed US attorneys offices not to use the term "undocumented" immigrants and instead refer to someone illegally in the US as "an illegal alien," according to a copy of an agency-wide email obtained by CNN.

It is the correct thing to do, because it is exactly what they are.

A rose by any other name is still a rose. In this case an illegal alien by any other name is still illegal. I like illegal alien. The other name sounds like the perp just forgot his papers and can't find them.

Illegal > undocumented > murderers and rapists.

Who'd have thought we'd NEED to "instruct" the Justice Department to use the correct terminology (illegals) for people who are here ILLEGALLY?
Next thing you know they'll be going off all half-cocked instructing them to use the term radical muslim terrorism........

I like it, though I could accept the less-harsh-sounding undocumented democrats.

Time to trash some of this PC speak.
Undocumented sounds like someone who lost his green card, not someone who never had one.
