Full Title:

GOP Rep.: GOP Leadership Failed to Negotiate Syrian Refugee Screening in Omnibus Bill, Called it a ‘Non-Starter’ for Dems

President Obama is intent on admitting thousands of refugees from terrorist hotspots to the U.S. but House Republicans failed to negotiate screening protections for the influx in last year’s omnibus spending bill, according to Rep. Brian Babin (R-TX).

“They promised me that they were going to have it in there and that they would fight for it and when it didn’t get in there I asked them, they said it was a non-starter with the Democrats,” Babin told Stephen K. Bannon on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Daily. “There was no negotiation with the Democrats what-so-ever that would wound up with that in there they told me.”

GOP leadership refused to negotiate for screening of Muslims being brought into the U.S. They said that the Democrats refused to discuss the issue and that the Republicans just gave in.

No wonder the GOP establishment is so angry with Trump.

Does anyone really have any good reason to trust the words coming out of Republican leaders in Washington?

Including their rank and file members 95 percent of whom are not real conservatives and just fake it so they can win the next election.

The “migrants” I see on the ground here in my part of Pennsylvania are just another source of cheap labor to the big business masters of the GOPe.

To slightly amend a freeper comment on Ryan et al’s tough negotiating stance vis-a-vis Obama, they held out for everything he wanted but not an iota more.

Sad but true.

I would like to think the R party is salvageable but there is no evidence of that.

After Paris, Brussels, and San Bernadino, if the GOP cant find the stones to approve a bill requiring Middle East moslem import people to be screened, the party is utterly useless.

Thankfully, a president has extremely wide authority to exclude entire nations or groups from being given visas. Trump is on the way.

It’s okay - Syrian refugees won’t be living in their neighborhoods.

If you racists were smarter, you’d know that.

Now go your taxes. These people who hate you need the money. :)
