Good. Expect wailing from the left, media, “professors” and America-haters. (Sorry for the redundancy).

yeah I'm sure he'll try to. I wonder what the procedure for that is. Will Obama just send the refugees anyway? Will Obama take the governors to court? Anybody know how this works?

I'd like to know who is advising Crispie not to jump on this, pretty obvious move could bump him up a little, not that I am supporting him but damn this should be a no brainer....

“Paging John Kasich in Ohio.........pick up the phone John and just say NO. (not holding my breath).”

Your governor is more likely to say NO than mine.

I have Gov Mark Dayton, a heavily sedated trust fund liberal who’s never worked a day in his life.

Hell, he’d probably tell Obama “Golly yes, we’ll take the ones that the other states don’t want”.

I think Wisconsin has also declined. You know they’ll all eventually be forced to do it though.
