House Democrats Insert Gay Rights into Immigration Debate

WASHINGTON -- House Democrats are trying to broaden support for immigration reform by reaching out to the gay and lesbian community with a provision in immigration legislation that would allow gay and lesbian Americans to bring foreign partners home to the United States.

Under current law, American citizens and other legal permanent residents can get a green card or immigrant visa for a spouse or immediate family members living abroad. However, the same rights do not extend to same-sex couples living in the country.

During a news conference on Capitol Hill Thursday, Democratic Reps. Jerrold Nadler of New York, Luis Gutierrez of Illinois and Mike Honda of California, among others, urged Congress to pass the Uniting American Families Act as part of a comprehensive immigration reform package this year.

Like all Dum support groups the Dum Leaders only pay attention to them when they can use them for a few votes.

"Gay Rights" is an oxymoron and a bogus concept. Sodomy is an abomination to God. He certainly has granted no real, special rights to sodomites. Sodomy is a sin. Jesus hates the sin but loves the sinner, who He died for. But calling sodomy a special right is like telling a terminally ill cancer patient that he's not sick and needs no help.

Once a society allows this twisted concept of "gay rights" to break through the boundaries of natural and God-given law, there's no boundaries left.

This is why we are barreling towards the days of Sodom and the frightful Day of the Lord. Luke 17:28-30.

“House Democrats are trying to broaden support for immigration reform by reaching out to the gay and lesbian community with a provision in immigration legislation that would allow gay and lesbian Americans to bring foreign partners home to the United States.”

Horse crap! This is a blatant, brazen, bullshit move to make any objection to the immigration bill as Racist, and/or Homophobic. Racism being their favorite tool.

The bastards by the way are trying any means possible to create a tipping point in race relations that will allow them to blame the Right for any and all repercussions ala Riots, or other dissention that will happen. They have been manipulating our society towards this goal IMO for a very long time.

They haven’t been as subtle, or clever about it as they seem to believe they have been.

The people have awakened to the false cries of racism and they overplay of the race card.

So in a sense, we are now Post-Racial, cause that game ain’t gonna play no more.

The same is true for the kweer kard.

While we’re at it, lets let em’ all in ...

From M*A*S*H* episode #39 [”Officers Only”], where they allow the General’s enlisted son to drink at the Officer’s Club. Once admitted, Hawkeye allows his “extended family” to enter:

“Corporal O’Reilly, who’s been like a son to me. Corporal Klinger, who’s been like a daughter. Cousin Fred. My brother-in-law, Leroy. My cousin Phil. My second cousin on my mother’s side, Ed. Bill, my mother’s cousin’s brother. Sam, my cousin’s brother’s mother.”

Sheesh !!!

The Dems are really trying their best to lose everything. I’ve never seen such a rushing towards political suicide in my life.

So far it hasn't stopped the socialist commie pig demoRATs. In fact every atrocity they commit only emboldens them to commit more. They are banking on ferocious lies, corruption and a completely dumbed down ignorant dumb ass voters, to pull the lever once again for demoRATs. If that doesn't work, then the dems will just fight & steal & find more votes until they win the elections they need to stay in power. We need American Revolution II, to throw the demoRAT bastards out of office, out of DC and straight to the gallows.

Start with 24, 25, and 26 of the communist goals...

1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.

4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.

6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.

8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.

9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.

11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)

12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.

14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

18. Gain control of all student newspapers.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”

31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.

33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.

34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.

37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].

39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [”]united force[”] to solve economic, political or social problems.

43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.

45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.
