Words Have Gender

People and animals have sex.  That is what gender means.  The left however in the tradition of 1984 has manipulated it so as to replace sex.  It is an aspect of their power to change the meaning of words.  The typical RINO falls in line.  It is sad to see the stream of so-called conservatives use gender as they are instructed from the radical left, led by homosexual groups.

And speaking of homosexuals, they are at it again in the immigration arena.  U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the agency charged with ferreting out fraud during the application process for benefits, such as legal permanent residency, citizenship, refugee, and asylum status, has adopted the radical left's re-definition of words to suit not only the demands of homosexuals, but will be assisting and encouraging fraud in asylum and refugee applications.

Ground-breaking USCIS Guidance on LGBTI Asylum Claims

Recently, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services issued its first ever "Guidance for Adjudicating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex (LGBTI) Refugee and Asylum Claims." Following closely on the heels of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's historic speech at the United Nations where she declared that "gay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights," the Guidance heralds an unprecedented commitment to protecting the rights of LGBTI people fleeing persecution.

The Guidance is a training module and so its audience is first and foremost Asylum and Refugee officers. For this audience, the Guidance offers basic definitions of sexual orientation, gender identity, intersex condition, and HIV. It also sets expectations that the officers be sensitive to the difficult nature of these claims:..

Actual scientific evidence, of course, will not be allowed.  Only the desires and opinions of homosexual activists and the deranged people who engage in genital self-mutilation.

The Guidance also gives officers specific directions on how to interact with LGBTI applicants, such as telling officers to ask transgender applicants which pronoun and name they prefer to us, and using that preferred language during the interview.

Like blacks, who were never satisifed with what they are called; Negro, colored, black, Afro-American, African-American, homosexuals also just can't make up their minds, first is was homosexual, then gay, then LGB, then LGBT, then LGBTQ (questioning), now it is LGBTI. Their lack of consistent terminology shows the shaky foundations of what they claim to be and a relentless desire to expand public perception of the rather small numbers.

It is also interesting in that they are shanghaing the hermaphrodites into their group.  Perhaps part of a claim to make homosexuality genetic rather than a mental illness.  But in any event, a hermaphrodite is a genetic dead end, much like homosexuals.

Even worse than accepting homosexual definitions that have no other basis than the political demands of a small group, USCIS has decided that detecting and detering fraud during an asylum claim based on homosexuality and sexual self-mutilation will not be a priority. 

With specific examples of appropriate and inappropriate lines of questioning, the practitioner now has a concrete basis on which to seek a supervisor's intervention if an officer asks inappropriate questions, such as graphic sexual questions.

Basically the USCIS training is designed to make detection of fraudulent claims impossible. The training has been deliberate designed to discourage attentive and dilligent officers from pursuing lines of questioning that will elicit information deragatory to the substance of the claim. 

The training even goes so far as to dismiss obviously pertinent information such as a heterosexual marriage.

For example, the Guidance suggests that the mere fact that an applicant is or has been in an opposite sex marriage does not undermine the applicant's credibility if he or she can explain the circumstances of the marriage.

So, there we have it.  Any person can now claim asylee or refugee status in the United States based on a claim of homosexuality, regardless of the actual fact that they are not homosexual.  This is quite similar to the pattern found after wife beating became a basis for asylum.  Many women who claim to be such victims and obtain asylum status, then sponsor their alleged "abuser" for derivative asylum status.  Yes, after winning the immigration lottery, they then bring their husbands who beat them.  Obviously they were working a scam, as USCIS does not require any evidence of victimization, just a claim.  Why, because they have difficulty speaking of it, the local police don't take reports, etc.  The same claims that homosexuals make now. "I was beaten because I am homosexual."  "Do you have a police report?"  "No, the police won't take a report because I am gay."

A cycle of claims that is self-supporting and not based on any evidence.  Even more incredible, homosexuals from Brazil of all places are claiming asylum here, as previously reported, and obtaining asylum, despite vague claims, no evidence, and in spite the fact that homosexuality is legal in Brazil and that the current President is a lesbian.

Also of note is that having AIDS or HIV are considered evidence that the alien in question is "identified" as homosexual, even if not homosexual.  And that goes for others thought to be homosexual by others.  So, in addition to false claims of homosexuality, aliens will be claiming asylum based on the claim that they are oppressed because others think they are homosexual, even if not. 

From the USCIS training manual:

  

While the BIA has not specifically ruled on claims by other sexual minorities, many U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals have. Claims involving actual or imputed sexual minority status may qualify under the PSG category and may involve applicants who:

identify as gay or lesbian

are viewed as a sexual minority, regardless of whether the persecutor or society involved distinguishes between sexual orientation, gender, and sex.

are transgender

are "closeted" gays and lesbians

test positive for HIV, regardless of their sexual orientation

16 (note that even if a transgender applicant identifies as heterosexual, he or she may be perceived as gay or lesbian)  

are viewed as "effeminate" or "masculine" but identify as heterosexual

are not actually gay but are thought to be gay by others

And just how will USCIS officers determine the truth?  They won't.  The lesson is clear from this so-called training.  The intent is "encourage" officers to just approve without any meaninful review any application by a homosexual, a claimed homosexual, or someone who was thought to be homosexual. 

Let us not forget that most homosexuals are incapable of meaningful participation in society.  They obsession with sex gave us the AIDS epidemic, and they have an enduring hatred for Christians and will only be part of the emerging radical left-wing culture war on America.  Like amnesty for Hispanics, this training is nothing more than a recruiting tool for more Demoncrat voters.  The real reason for the training, besides waging war on heterosexual America. 

Hey, isn't that heterophobic?

Another Fraudulent Method Of Immigration

The Newspaper of Record had a profile recently of a Yemeni citizen who was found to have been mistakingly recognized as an American citizen.  It is a typical story of Yemeni immigrants, at least those who don't come here to kill us all like the Lackawanna Six.

In this case the much abuse method of immigration is quite disturbing.  It is a round about way of gaining citizenship without having to go through the immigration process.  Basically, an alien comes to the United States as a legal permanent resident, then obtains citizenship.  The newly naturalized alien then leaves the United States and usually starts living again in his country of origin.  It shows just how little immigrants think of their ties to the United States.  For them, citizenship is a just a passport of convinience.

Because U.S. Erred in ’90, Bronx Resident Becomes a Man Without a Country

Abdo Hizam says he has always tried to be a good American. Born in 1980 in a small village in Yemen to a Yemeni-American father, Mr. Hizam received an American passport through a law that provides citizenship to the children of Americans.

He moved to Dearborn, Mich., when he was 9 to live with his grandparents and embraced his new world. He gave up his Yemeni citizenship. He graduated from high school and earned a business degree at a local college. He worked for years at a local restaurant, and he opened a small grocery store. Throughout, he rooted passionately for the Detroit Lions.

But last year, his life was suddenly upended. The State Department told him that he had received his citizenship in error in 1990. The mistake had been no fault of his or his parents, officials said, but rather a bureaucratic blunder by the government.

Still, the State Department said it could not fix the mistake. Officials said the law left them with only one option: They revoked his passport and effectively stripped Mr. Hizam of his nationality, plunging him into an extraordinary stateless limbo.

Mr. Hizam, who is living in the Bronx, has filed a lawsuit against the government, demanding that it affirm his citizenship and reissue his passport.

“I feel betrayed,” he said during a recent interview in a conference room at the New York University School of Law, where he is being represented by members of the Immigrant Rights Clinic.

Notice that he did not come to live with his father.  Notice also the pattern, father goes back to get a bride, but leaves bride and child there for whatever amount of time.  And appears to be living back in Yemen.  And Hizam is also on the same plan, live here a while, go back for a bride, don't sponsor her for years, have a child or two born overseas so they can get their initial upbrining in dangerous and hatefilled country, just so future children don't "Americanize."  It must be, as why would anyone leave a wife or child in that violence plagued and Islamist country?  Only one who did not what young children, or wife, exposed to anything un-Islamic.

He quickly found his place among the large Arab-American population in Dearborn and became assimilated into American life. Over the next two decades, he traveled back and forth to Yemen several times and the American government renewed his passport twice.

On one of those trips, in 2002, he wed a young Yemeni woman in an arranged marriage. They now have two children.

“My plan was to get that 9-to-5, be out of debt, be financially stable enough to bring my wife and kids and live my life here,” he said. “I’m trying to get ‘the picket fence.’ Everything you get drilled into your head, I’m trying to live it.”

In 2009, like his father two decades earlier, Mr. Hizam applied for citizenship for his two children and wife so they could join him in the United States.

But after several weeks of delays, a consular official in Sana told him that the United States authorities had discovered a problem in his file: His father apparently had not satisfied the requirements for conveying citizenship to him two decades earlier.

According to the laws at the time, Mr. Hizam’s father could transmit citizenship to him if he could show that he had lived in the United States for at least 10 years before his child’s birth.

Mr. Hizam’s father, it appeared, had filed his paperwork with the correct dates delineating his time in the United States, but that time apparently added up to less than eight years, according to court documents. State Department officials approved the citizenship anyway.

Also of importance is that there is nothing for the State Department to do.  Hizam is not an American citizen, he just does not qualify.  His father did not live in the U.S. long enough to pass on his citizenship.  The whole story is baby-waving for the benefit of the current Regime's Administrative Amnesty.

The even more frightening thing is not that aliens are gaming the system, but that people of such low regard for the U.S. that they won't look for a wife in the "large Arab population" of America, but have to go back to get married, and then leave wife and children in that country.  Why pray tell?  And Yemen of all countries, the nation that gave us Osama Bin Ladin. 

But as Congress has lessened the time required for naturalized citizens to reside in the United States, the problem is only getting worse.  Pakistan similarly provides many who immigrate, but don't acculturate, frequently departing the U.S. as soon as they are naturalized, then passing citizenship on to children for who an American passport is just a convinience, and like Faisal Shahzad, who naturalized yet never acculturated, and later became a threat.  Note that his Pakistani American wife apparently derived her citizenship, but fled to Pakistan before Shazad's terrorist attack.  Derived citizenship is just another source of hatefilled aliens, similar to the immigration system.  Time to restrict it to native born and long lived citizens who just happen to give birth overseas because of some temporary government or corporate assignment.  Not for those to game the system.

Another Version Of Buy This Magazine Or The Dog Gets It

Recently James Fulford and Linda Thom have condemned Rush for his comments on the Georgetown co-ed who wants me to pay for her, or at least all the other hot, and otherwise,chicks at the once magnificent Catholic university on the Potomac.  They also agree that feeding contraceptives to illegals is the smart way to go.  Unforetunately it was alot like do it or else.

I want to respectfully disagree with both their position on Sandra Fluke and birth control for illegals. 

First Rush and the slut comment.  First, if a shoe fits wear it.  Although I don't actually believe that Sandra Fluke is a slut, at least in the meaning that she sleeps around with men, or even fornicates outside of the Sacrament of Marriage, or at even a civil marriage.  Or even on the off chance her sexual partners are limited, to just one, or non-existent.  At least in the heterosexual meaning...wink, wink, nudge, nudge...say no more.

First Thom and Fulford on slut and its special meaning.  Meaning it is a word not to be used, such as the "N" word.  Well, having lived among black Americans, I know that that word is in common parlance, even without referring to various rappers popular among blacks.  I want to speak of it among the common folk.  It is widespread and ubiquitous among blacks.  It is however discouraged among a subset of most serious black Christians.  A colleague is incensed when his fellow blacks use it.  And incensed he should be, but it ain't a slur, except when non-blacks use it.

But even if it is taken as the most despicable word imaginable, unlike cracker, or white trash, or peckerwood, slut is not its equivalent.  But it is clear that Fluke was playing the sexually liberated co-ed, at least on TV, and, frankly my dear, it fits, at least in the meaning that she wanted to be known as sexually liberated, which means she sleeps around.

To compound the error Fulford and Thom claim there is no male equivalent.  Well, yes, there is, or are.  How about Lothario?  How about Satyr?  How about playboy? How about Don Juan? Or just plain perv?  In fact the cult of false accusations of rape, much more hideous than calling a woman who demands taxpayer subsidy of her and her classmates sexual adventurousness, to put it mildly, a slut.

Fulford and Thom are correct to point out the promiscuousness of certain immigrant groups, but that is unrelated to birth control.  In fact, most long-term and short-term birth control fails, or, more accurately, provides the opportunity to fail.  The fecundity of Hispanic immigrants is in spite of millions in birth control already provided to them.  It just ends up "failing" somehow.  Why, because giving birth is a better strategy for both welfare and amnesty.  Just read John Morton's memos, or my blog, on the amnesty and incarceration, pregnancy, nursing, child care, etc.  All are prime reasons for ICE to grant amnesty, and to attract more immigrants.  Add to that the welfare benefits of childbirth; housing, food, etc., and you have an irresissible call to prenancy.  Trying to foist more birth control is an exercise if futility.  It does not serve an illegal alien or a low wage Hispanic any good.  They might practice it for a while if they have a good man, but the ultimate goal is either comitting him to marriage or producing a welfare benefit if he doesn't. 

In any event, the principle of the thing is the most important issue.  Taxpayers should no more subsidize the sexual escapades of co-eds than that of illegals.  In fact, possible birth is a good reason to not subsidize it.  It will encourage women to not sleep around, therefore avoiding various venerial diseases rampant among the 20 something set and older. 

It is better for society if women don't sleep around, at least not that it is apparent.  A nuclear family is best for society and children, it is also good for women.  No man wants to commit to a good-time girl.  We are pretty smart.  We know what that behavior means.  It means possible cuckolding. 

While women may dislike the developing double standard, in fact, women generally support the double standard by letting themselves fall for the Don Juan, the playboy, the Hugh Hefner.  No shortage there of women willing to sell themselves short.  Just ask Izabella St. James.

There we have it, attacking more illegals with promises of free birth control will not benefit us, they won't really use them, sluts are not good for society.  In the end, Ruch was correct.  Fluke herself may or may not be a slut, but the behavior was accurately described.  And it ain't all that hurtful, and it's generally true.  What women can do best to flight the slut slur is fight the slut culture.  And deport all illegals NOW.  Si Si Puede! 

Just as calling out BRA on their failings ain't racist.  It ain't when calling out Georgetown, or ASU, or Chico State sluts.  And don't subsidize it.  She is going to get pregnant anyway.  The only solution is what Hillary! practiced.  No more sex, at least not too much, just a little with Vince Foster.  Cankles are the best birth control anyway.

Haiti Gets One Thing Right

It takes citizenship seriously.  In a controversy concerning the new President, Michel Martelly, a very cosmopolitan man who has lived most of his adult life outside of Haiti, and his citizenship, Haiti showed that it is unique among nations.  Under its laws, once you naturalize elsewhere, you loose your Haitian citizenship.  The article states that only applies to government officials, but that is incorrect, it applies to all.

President Martelly Denies US Citizenship, Shows Haitian Passport

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — President Michel Martelly displayed his Haitian passport on national television Thursday to try to quell rumors that he gave up his citizenship and is not eligible to hold office.

The Haitian constitution does not recognize dual nationality for senior government officials, and politicians have been disqualified from office in the past for having acquired the citizenship of other countries.

Critics of Martelly, a former globe-trotting musician, charged that he had renounced his Haitian citizenship prior to taking office last May. Several opposition senators went so far as to open an inquiry into the question of his passport.

Martelly had already denied that he held the citizenship of another country but angered opponents by refusing to show his Haitian passport.

In fact Martelly is, or was, a legal permanent resident of the United States.  And in an effort to deny he naturalized here, he showed some passports:

But on Thursday, Martelly showed reporters eight stamped passports that he’s held over the years as U.S. ambassador to Haiti Kenneth Merten and other diplomats looked on.

Merten said Martelly used to have a green card and now has visa, and there are no records of him being an American citizen.

For the uninitiated, showing either expired or current Haitian passports is no evidence of Martelly not naturalizing.  It is most likely that he did, as the United States does not report those aliens who naturalize to the country of their former citizenship.  Moreover the United States does not prohibit the practice of naturalized citizens who maintain their allegiances to foreign powers, despite the naturalization oath that aliens take where they abjure any foreign allegiance.

Perhaps Martelly should sign a release so his records can be released by DHS?  Probably not going to happen.

And here is how seriously Haiti takes the issue:

Haiti takes citizenship seriously, but we do not and get saddled with drug dealers due to our immaturity.

Barbados Gazette April 28, 2010

Naturalized U.S. Citizen From Haiti Ordered Deported

CaribWorldNews, MIAMI, FL, Weds. April 28, 2010: A 58-year-old Haitian migrant, who became a naturalized citizen of the United States, has been ordered deported.

Lionel Jean-Baptiste, who was convicted of drug trafficking after his naturalization, now must return to his homeland of Haiti. Jean-Baptise has made immigration-law history as the first naturalized American in recent times stripped of his citizenship after being convicted of a crime...

However, Immigration Judge Kenneth Hurewitz told Jean-Baptiste Tuesday that he may be able to stay in the U.S. if the Haitian government refuses to take him back.

Haiti`s 19-year-old constitution says Haitians who become citizens of another country are no longer Haitian citizens.

We don't take citizenship or loyalty seriously and consequently we get saddled with drug dealers.  Not a rational system.  It is time to enforce loyalty among our immigrant population and enforce deportation orders.

U.S. Border Patrol To Adopt The ICE Amnesty

In a sad and disquieting note, the new head of the U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) has announced an upcoming new enforcement strategy, a risk based strategy rather than a resource based strategy.  For the uninitiated that means that the once formitable USBP, one with decades of its own enforcement culture, will be adopting the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) non-enforcement policy.  This was foreshadowed early last year.

Homeland Security Today May 26, 2011 by Anthony Kimery

DHS: An Acceptable Level of Illegal Migration; a Downsized Border Patrol?

A variety of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials on the US border with Mexico interviewed by Homeland Security Today offered a candidly astonishing revelation. They said because of the decrease in apprehensions of illegals and the increase in seizures of narcotics trying to be smuggled into the country, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) leaders in Washington, DC are mulling over the notion of whether, as a matter of official policy, there's an acceptable level of illegal migration into the United States - and whether the CBP workforce needs to be slashed as a result.

The officials said the decrease in apprehensions has caused some officials to believe that some Border Patrol stations and outposts and CBP operations along the southern border are “over-manned” and not as busy as they’d been in recent years. Some of the officials even said "things" have had to be "found ... to [keep some agents] busy."

The most recent Obama DHS budget included a decline in over 100 Border Patrol Agents.  To complement the planned decline in Border Patrol Agents and the acceptance of a level of illegal immigration the new Chief Patrol Agent,  instead of shifting to an interior enforcement strategy based on the decline in the number of illegal border crossers, will be accepting lower staffing levels and decreasing the number of aliens arrested.

Border Patrol Chief Says New Agency Strategy To Shift Focus From Resources To Risks

PHOENIX — U.S. Border Patrol Chief Mike Fisher unveiled parts of his agency's new strategic four-year plan to tackle border security on Wednesday, saying that agents will focus on better responding to risks.

Fisher addressed a crowd of law enforcement and those working in the border-security field at a major border expo in downtown Phoenix.

Details of the Border Patrol's new strategic plan were still being finalized and that the plan won't be made public for about another two months, he said.

But Fisher outlined the basics, saying that the agency's last strategy, written in 2004, will move from being resource-based to risk-based.

"In 2004, quite frankly, our strategy was nothing less than brute force," he said. "We said, 'Get everything we can and get it at the line.'"

In an imitation of ICE's "priorites," the USBP will be chasing Al Queda terrorists on the southern border and ignoring cartel members and more pedestrial illegal aliens.

"There are people that wake up every day in this world and think of nothing other than how to harm this country," Fisher told The Associated Press. "It's not necessarily at this point, 'Give us more stuff.' It's about applying the stuff we have to reduce risk."

While the decline in the number of apprehensions on the border is real, the appropriate response is to return the USBP to its previous dual function, patrol of the international borders of the United States and interior enforcement.  It is time to reopen Border Patrol Stations closed under Jorge Bush and concentrate on the 11+ million illegal aliens in the United States.  A good place to start is the 7 million plus illegal aliens working in the United States who are readily identifyable by their misuse of Social Security numbers, both false numbers, the stolen numbers of legal workers, and those using Taxpayer Identification Numbers.

BRA Says Illegals Don't Vote

Not Eli Wallach:

Fortunately for the American people, the Social Security Administration Office of Inspector General is on the job.  It recently investigated and reported to the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Alamba that Venustiano Hernandez-Hernandez, also known as The Rat, was an illegal alien who had assumed the identity of an American citizen and was fraudulent collecting Social Security disability benefits.  He had been living in the United States illegally for 40 years.  One wonders why The Rat did not apply for the 1986 amnesty?  So, for 40 years, this illegal alien avoided the legacy INS and then U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).  (h/t Election Law Center)

Baldwin Man Convicted Of Fraud Voted Regularly Under Name Of U.S. Citizen, Records Show

MOBILE, Alabama — Federal authorities prosecuted Venustiano Hernandez-Hernandez for Social Security fraud and theft of government funds related to his life under an assumed name in Baldwin County, but they may have been able to add voter fraud, as well.

Records from the Baldwin County Board of Registrars show that Hernandez-Hernandez is registered to vote under the name of Severo Benavidez, the name he used for almost 4 decades after slipping into the United States from his native Mexico in the 1970s.

The Perdido Beach resident pleaded guilty earlier today to federal fraud charges as part of a deal in which aggravated identity theft will be dropped. He also faces possible deportation.

It is unclear whether federal prosecutors might pursue criminal charges against Hernandez-Hernandez related to voter fraud.

Well, it is certainly clear that ICE is not interested in finding The Rat in the first place.  He lived here 40 years.  And ICE and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services have no concerns about aliens voting, as this blog has shown that frequently.

Besides not being afraid of ICE, he has no concerns about voting as well:

Packard said the 62-year-old man voted in the 1996 and 2008 general elections, the 2002 primary election and special elections on a constitutional amendment to overhaul Alabama’s tax system in 2003 and to incorporate Perdido Beach as Baldwin County’s 14th municipality in 2009.

And the Democrat Party is in denial:

‘We Don’t Have Any’ Problem of Illegal Immigrants Voting in U.S., Dem Congressmen Say

At a discussion panel on voter identification (ID) laws held at the U.S. Capitol on Feb. 17, CNSNews.com asked Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.): “What should be done in regards to illegal immigrants voting?”

Lewis replied, “I don’t know of any. I don’t know of any case in any -- in Georgia, in Alabama, in North Carolina, Mississippi or any parts of America -- that some illegal person, some person who’s not a citizen had cast a vote and I just think that’s a lot of say-and-do about nothing. That’s not happening.”
