The terror attacks in Paris have focused new attention on the issue of Syrian refugee admissions, with several Republican presidential candidates hardening opposition to President Obama’s decision to allow 10,000 of them to settle in the United States during the current fiscal year.
“Bringing people into this country from that area of the world I think is a huge mistake,” retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson said on Fox News Sunday. “Because why wouldn’t they infiltrate them with people who are ideologically opposed to us? It would be foolish for them not to do that.”
Carson said the U.S. should be compassionate, and support Syrian refugees to resettle in their region of origin.

ReplyDeleteThis president is a filthy human being, a known liar, a coward, a traitor and he and all his family and followers should be kicked out of this country. Never liked coups until now. Maybe we need to show him and all his followers the door, close our borders and start bringing America back from his deliberate destruction!
ReplyDeleteI expect no less from a Muslim and communist president. The governors are standing up to him, how about the spineless wonders in the House and Senate?
ReplyDeleteThank you Jesus, thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus.
ReplyDeleteOh BTW have you noticed that most Democrats are anti-Christian these days!
