Puerto Ricans are NOT foreigners!

Here's a correction from today's Washington Post:

The May 27 editorial "The President's Pick" incorrectly referred to Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor as the daughter of "immigrant" parents. Judge Sotomayor's parents were not immigrants but were born in Puerto Rico after passage of a 1917 law that automatically conferred U.S. citizenship on island-born residents.

Really, there's no excuse for that sort of editorial ignorance in the first place.
