It's an interesting tactic to argue that if she were in a straight relationship, she could marry. But since when do we decide the legal fates of people based upon laws that do not yet exist?. It's a textbook example one class getting a free pass. As dumb as "Americans for Truth about Homosexuality" sounds, there is a very valid concern here.

If this Lesbian is attractive then she should be allowed to stay. If she's a fat ugly bulldyke then ship her elsewhere.

No, it's not a valid concern. This is not an "egregious example of special rights for homosexuals" - private bills granting some immigration status for an individual or small group of individuals are not at all uncommon (they're introduced all the time, though they pass at a fairly low rate). They're typically used for fairly compelling (politically, socially, emotionally) cases, and it seems like Feinstein believes that the disparity here (that a heterosexual immigrant in the same situation as this woman would be entitled to marry, and could get a green card in that way, but this woman is unable to do so because she is homosexual) is such a compelling case.

Just because some "pro-family" group calls something a "special right for homosexuals" doesn't mean that it is so.

Why doesn't she just get married?

Oh, right.

Because People in power are Stupid: Example of attractive lesbian:

She's not a lesbian, she's an attention whore that doesn't care who gets her off.

Oh, and if we really wanted to max out buzz words, we'd could easily top that by adding in an atheist who is pregnant and wants to abort her child.

But is she Obama's nominee for Supreme Court Justice?

Here's an idea. Don't let marriage be a "get out of jail free" card for heterosexuals OR homosexuals.

She's illegal. She overstayed her visa. Why should she be rewarded for that---regardless of her sexual preference?

I didn't know legislation was allowed to target individuals. Good to know that equal protection laws don't mean much.

Whatever. Do you realize how small a subset of the overall population we're talking about here?

A. Must be gay
B. Must be in ongoing relationship
C. Must want to get married
D. One half of couple must be an immigrant.

Out of a country of 300 Million, this issue probably affects 100,000 people, at most, across the entire country. That isn't a threat to anyone.

ATAH as in Boobies

Once I was engaged to a citizen of another nation who hadn't broken the law in getting and staying here. That thing about marriage meaning that the person from the other country being allowed to stay here is a myth. Probably because it's too easy of a loophole. Given the pain in the ass it is for someone who hasn't jumped the boarder and been here legally, I'd hate to see the headache for trying to marry someone who's been caught here illegally. The part of this that is really sad is that we have a government official who thinks marriage is a guaranteed route to citizenship. It's not. Even if married, it's still a long drawn out and expensive process and can be turned down at any point and deported. My best friend's sister married an illegal alien and had a kid with him. Didn't stop the Feds from sending his ass back to his home country. Also that didn't stop him from sneaking back across the boarder.

I didn't say it wasn't biased, but to be fair, it had a lot more actual news content and less bias than the initial link.

Kick her out for being an illegal.
Let her marry her lover so she can stay.

She's illegal. She overstayed her visa. Why should she be rewarded for that---regardless of her sexual preference?

Perhaps she overstayed her visa because she fell in love with her partner and they didn't want to separate?

I'm an American man, married to an Australian woman. We live together now down here in Australia and I have legal status, medical benefits and employment due to the fact that we are married.

This woman on the other hand is not allowed to have this right. Perhaps she loves her partner as much as I love my wife. I can only imagine how horrible it would be to be torn away from her against my will.

But yeah, it's all "cut and dried" or something - you farking assholes.

Yep. Precisely. This case "embodies" the continuation of a plot to bring "homosexual activists" across the border in to America.

You know what, asshole? You're wrong. I'll bet you that between those of us who call ourselves activists and the slice of this country that just doesn't give a fark, most Americans do not share your concerns about hordes of gay Mexicans marauding across our sacred border.

I could be wrong. But I'm young. And if it's not now, it's soon. And you damn well know it.

Conflicted. Support Gay Marriage but not illegal immigration. Flaunting immigration law for nearly 20 years should not get you special attention from Government beyond deportation. Let her go back to the Philippines and let her follow the rules to come back to America legally.

haemaker: Why doesn't she just get married?

Oh, right.

Because that doesn't affect her immigration status. She still would have to leave the country (preferably without the authorities noticing her status), and then apply for a fiancee visa or go through the process of securing the marriage/green card.

Meaning that, if she was straight, she'd still have to leave the country.

There was another way for her to stay and get a green card legally, but I'm assuming she just didn't bother with that when she was eligible. I say send her back and slap a 5 year bar on her return, but then again, I deal with this crap every day and I've lost my compassion.

This is a pretty good example of why blocking gay marriage is vicious and unfair.

onebadgungan: FTA: "Peter LaBarbera, founder and president of Americans for Truth about Homosexuality, sees this as another attempt at gaining special rights for homosexuals."

On any wingnut website LaBarbera is defacto spokesmen for "homosexual" issues. He's obsessed with gay male sex so I am wondering why he cares about a bunch of lesbians.

The assumption is that if she could get married she would have done so a long time ago and not now be in this situation. Forcing her to jump through hoops she would not have had to jump through had she had the same rights as straight people would have alleviated this and we would now be on a thread where some idiot walks out into traffic.

No. This woman should be ejected from the country just like every single other illegal living in our country. Noone cares if it's a dyke or not, send it back.

'Call in Gay' Day - Isn't this Movement Obnoxious?
By Peter LaBarbera

Isn't the "gay" activist movement obnoxious? Now they're staying home from work and "calling in gay" to protest Prop 8. But wasn't it just a short time ago when the homosexual lobby was moaning that all across America people could be fired "just because they're gay"? Now they're taunting their employers using their gayness. Gee, it looks like their jobs are pretty safe!

I wonder: if a few homosexuals were to get fired for pulling this "Call in Gay" stunt, would they sue for being "discriminated" against? (That was a rhetorical question.)

Yes, the homosexual activists wear us all out with the non-stop militancy. (I think they wear out some of the non-militant homosexuals, too.) Enough already. I don't think self-styled "queers" will stop agitating until every day of the year is devoted to some sort of belly-aching that aims to normalize that which is aberrant and sinful. Of course, like the pro-abortion-on-demand crowd, their ability to agitate has zero bearing on right vs. wrong.

Shame on us Christians?

Once again we return to the irritating "shame-reversal" that characterizes Brave New Secular America, where the sinners (or we'll call them the Sin Advocates) - you know, the ones who in saner times would feel remorse before a holy God - do the "preaching" - while those of us who defend Biblical tradition, normalcy, etc., are supposed to feel guilty (and many do!). Here's the truth: if marriage is a wonderful institution created by God, and homosexual practice is always sinful (see www.robgagnon.net), what does that make homosexual "marriage"? Right: a very confused and rebellious attempt to legitimate wrongdoing using state power.

Obnoxious?

I don't know what is more strange... that there's an illegal alien lesbo, or that an illegal immigrant that is not actively breeding anchor babies!

Sum Dum Gai: MyRandomName: I didn't know legislation was allowed to target individuals.

It's not intended to actually pass (or even be worked on in committee), just to give time for Congress to pass the Uniting American Families Act, which would allow all homosexual couples the same rights as married couples in terms of immigration law.

You mean the Uniting Families In America act? UFIA for All America now!
