I think the real problem is this:

"(A) Conviction of certain crimes.-

(i) In general.-Except as provided in clause (ii), any alien convicted
of, or who admits having committed, or who admits committing acts
which constitute the essential elements of-

(I) a crime involving moral turpitude (other than a purely political
offense or an attempt or conspiracy to commit such a crime), or

(II) a violation of (or a conspiracy or attempt to violate) any law or
regulation of a State, the United States, or a foreign country
relating to a controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of the
Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)), is inadmissible."
