The Democrats’ Shitty Immigration Proposal Comes With Gay Candy

Senators Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) have proposed a plan that one UK commenter calls “as popular as genital herpes,” though you should note that “popularity” is not the same as “ubiquity.” It’s called Biometric Enrollment, Locally stored Information and Electronic Verification of Employment (or “BELIEVE”) and requires every American citizen to carry a “biometric ID card” with thumbprint information in order to get a job. It’s expensive, alarming, and would do nothing to address our actual immigration problems, but it does have some sugar sprinkles for gays with foreign partners—it would allow “gay [Americans] to sponsor their partners for citizenship.” But winning over 10 percent of the US population won’t convince the other 90 percent to enjoy eating a poo sandwich.
