With the shooting that occurred in Orlando this past Sunday, and the discussion of placing a temporary ban on Muslims resurfacing, I thought it would be fitting to remind (or inform) everyone that this would not be the first time something like this occurred. And no, I’m not discussing when former President Carter placed a ban on Iranians.
An investigative report from 2013 published by ABC News found that the Obama-Clinton State Department took a six-month hiatus from processing Iraqi refugee requests in 2011, a move not widely publicized by the media at the time.
Yeah, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Obama were okay with a temporary ban on Muslims. That actually happened.
That doesn’t seem to match up with the rhetoric, especially President Obama’s, on not taking in refugees and temporarily banning Muslims, now does it?

His was in response to an attack. Trump is banning them because he can't handle sitting down at an intelligence briefing every morning to assess what's happening in the world. His mind is too feeble to analyze information in real time. He's been fed fear-mongering crap from Bannon and the tv shows he watches all day rather than listening to intelligence reports. He is a disgrace
ReplyDeleteObama didn't ban anyone, it added an interview aspect to vet people from Iraq before they could get a visa. Very different from an all-out ban.
ReplyDeleteObama ended "wet foot, dry foot" just 3 weeks ago, but nobody remembers that!
ReplyDeleteNothing new. The typical leftist hypocrisy. I guess the MSM missed obamas'ban on purpo

ReplyDeleteObama avoided many briefings, and didn't want to be exposed to information that contradicted his pre-conceived views. Those preparing the information learned what topics to avoid.
