Syrian Refugees in the US, Yes or No?

Should the US accept Syrian Refugees after what happened in Paris? Why is Obama pushing this on the American people?

The Paris attacks are believed to have been conducted in part by ISIS fighters posing as Syrian refugees. Republican governors in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Massachusetts, and Texas were among the first to issue issue a formal statement denouncing Obama’s plan to allow more refugees into America, MSN reports.

Confused as the terrorists have been identified as French or Belgian nationals not refugees

I think one was posing as a refugee and entered Europe through Greece, but most were born in Europe.

I had to laugh when I saw this.

Some Americans it seems are threatening to move to Canada if President Obama lets in 10,000 refugees. Did they not read that Canada, with one tenth the population of the U.S.A., is allowing 25,000 to come and settle here.

I have no problem with it, most of the refugees will be those that have spent months or years in refugee camps and have been vetted. People running for their lives should always have a place to escape to.

There but for the grace of God go I!

His response now is no different than the response of Wilson to the Armenian massacres of 1915 by the Ottoman empire.... And look what the long term effect of that was:

The Kardasians....



Think of that they took a male athlete and turned him into a woman...


What has this got to do with the Armenian's you ask as there seems to be little connection. The Ottoman were in the process of deporting their Armenian population to Syria to stop the Russians using them as a internal disruptive purposes.... Now we have the Russians Bombing the hell out of Syria and sending a population with considerable Armenian DNA running.... Just think in 100 years an influx of Kardasian type Armenians would do the the Male population of the USA ?

On the other hand the lack of Armenian in the US OJ would not have got off!

The USA has a refugee programme.... Should the PUTUS unilateraley suspend, abolish it?
One thing I agree with is Barry should calm the rethoric since clearly most USA Citizens don't want the Syrian Refugees. But it cannot be said that Barry is pushing Syrian Refugees on American People, since there are well established procdures to deal with refugees of crises.
Maybe the USA want to redraw from such a programme? If so they lawmakers should come up with a veto-proof vote that the POTUS will sign?

So Barry has suddenly had an epiphany and obeys procedures and laws of the land? But I digress. Yes, the US has a refugee program. There is nothing in it that states a mandatory acceptance of any refugee by the US (interpretation?), with the exception of wet foot dry foot clause of refugees from Cuba?

As a US citizen I don't know what is more embarrasing. The neutering and feminization of bruce jenner by the dysfunctional Kardasian sluts, or this presidents ability to deal with foreign policy.

And now we may have the "Donald" as president or worse the "Hillary"? I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Me thinks I'll retire and drink and smoke(spliff)myself into oblivion.

Some of them posed as refugees...those are the facts.

Let's clear this up first? Which laws has he broken?

But I digress. Yes, the US has a refugee program. There is nothing in it that states a mandatory acceptance of any refugee by the US (interpretation?), with the exception of wet foot dry foot clause of refugees from Cuba?

Yes agreeing to accept Refugees is mandatory once you have signed on to it. Does not say you have to agree to each and every Refugee. The USA has agreed to take 10k Syrian Refugees in the coming Fiscal Year. There is a process setup to verify Refugees.

Congress can vote to redraw from the Refugee Programme if the USA changes its mind. But to say the POTUS is forcing Syrian Refugees down the throats of USA Citizens is demonstratively false!

[Tuff Gong]

or this presidents ability to deal with foreign policy.

Point out his failures? You are saying he has failed to get more USA Citizens killed in battles than previous POTUS?

And now we may have the "Donald" as president...

I am shocked. All views that His Hairness has exposed are the very same one you have been tRumpeting for years now?
I would think you would be front and center of every tRump Rally waving Pom-Poms and tossing confetti?

Exhibit A: Mexicans are shiftless, lazy, freeloading, Anchor Baby, raping, criminals?
Exhibit B: The Wall?
Exhibit C: Muslim Surveillance/replete with a Crescent tattooed on their foreheads?
Exhibit D: Mass deportations of Wetbacks?

Yes, 2 of the terrorists came in through Greece posing as Syrian refugees. This was reported in EVERY major news source but of course as always you know more......
