Andrew Sullivan’s Bust: The Real Issue
Pajamas Media ^ | September 11, 2009 | Ron Radosh

It seems that Andrew Sullivan’s application for US citizenship hangs in the balance — but not really, and that is the issue. Gawker and other sites report that this past summer, blogger and columnist Sullivan was arrested on national seashore in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, for illegal possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor that would incur a $125 for Sullivan, if he was found guilty. No big deal — it happens a lot in that area of our country.

The only stumbling block is Sullivan’s pending U.S. citizenship, which might have been adversely affected should he have been brought to court. Enter the office of the U.S. Attorney. The local court was ordered to drop the charges, so that Sullivan would be able to gain his citizenship without a problem. It was clearly special treatment afforded the illustrious pundit. Robert Collings, the magistrate who would have heard the case, was stunned.

Why would he want to be a citizen of such a homophobic nation filled with religious zealotry such as ours?

I mean, what's wrong with the U.K., which is where I think he's from?

Oh, that’s just what we need here: another drug-abusing gay guy infected with AIDS.

Andrew “married” a US citizen (male) in Massachussetts in order to apply for citizenship as his husband’s spouse. Using gay marriage as route to US citizenship is an outrageous scam.

Here’s what the magistrate said in his briefing, which is here:

http://pacer.mad.uscourts.gov/dc/cgi-bin/recentops.pl?filename=collings/pdf/09-0476rbcsullivan.pdf

“In the Court’s view, in seeking leave to dismiss the charge against Mr. Sullivan, the United States Attorney is not being faithful to a cardinal principle of our legal system, i.e., that all persons stand equal before the law and are to be treated equally in a court of justice once judicial processes are invoked. It is quite apparent that Mr. Sullivan is being treated differently from others who have been charged with the same crime in similar circumstances.”

The magistrate also notes in the above briefing that three other people had been charged **and were being prosecuted** by the United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts on the same day, in the same court, and **for exactly the same marijuana possession charge**, while Sullivan was being let off the hook.

What’s wrong with the UK is that the Brits have permitted it to be captured by the muslims and they KILL homos.

I’m so conflicted by that...LOL

It’s just unbelievable how perverted our immigration system has become.

Lil’ Andy blogs from Washington, DC.

You need saturation coverage of all metro-sexual media capitals.
