President Obama on Tuesday will lead a special summit on the need to take in Syrian refugees, just days after weekend terrorist attacks that are raising more questions about whether the U.S. should be cracking down on immigration instead of opening the doors further.
Plans for Obama to lead the summit were months in the making, long before Ahmad Khan Rahami allegedly planted a pressure cooker bomb in New York that detonated, injuring 29 people. Rahami, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Afghanistan, is also thought to be responsible for bombs discovered in New Jersey.
The incident puts real pressure on Obama to make the case for taking in thousands of additional refugees, in the face of calls from Donald Trump and other Republican critics who say it's time to tighten the rules, not ease them. Obama's critics say the timing couldn't be worse.
"The timing of the summit just reinforces the idea that we need to get a handle on our refugee program," Rep. Brian Babin, R-Texas, told the Washington Examiner. "There is a clear and present danger posed to our national security by these poorly vetted refugees that are pouring in, and the president continues to double down on his intentions to bring in more and more of the individuals from hot spots like Syria."

Lord help us!
All I can say is I hope this action brings in more vote for Trump!!
Maybe Obola could do something radical.
Like bringing in a few hundred thousand CHRISTIAN refugees who ACTUALLY ARE being persecuted and murdered ... by the hundred thousand Muslims he wants to bring over.
Yep
Obama never understood math.
More migrants = more attacks
One of the biggest problems with refugees is, Zero lets them in, and then doesn’t tell anyone where they’ve been placed so there’s no ability to assess how well they are integrating - or not.
(There’s a video on UT, about a North Korean escapee living in So Korea - he’d actually rather go back to NK to the slave camp he was born and grew up in, because he’s found it very difficult to adjust to an unstructured, money-centric society. Not all refugees are able to mentally integrate.)
I wonder what the news would say about the existence of refugeed had Bush policies had been the cause of them
Although bam might have the gift of gab, timing is not among his greatest skills. He’s stepped into so many burning bags of crap over the last few years that I’ve lost count. It’s as though some powerful force in the Universe is working against him. If this is indeed so, he is not getting the message.
And what will Republicans in Congress do this time?
The same thing they always do.
You guessed it - nothing.
These people will fight President Trump a lot more than they’ve ever fought Obama. Just watch.
It’s very simple. He pays for the other team.
Obama and all his irresponsible bullshit must be stopped. Too bad there isn’t an opposition party at the moment.
Indeed. Seriously, in all my years, I have never seen a more odious and wrongheaded jerk than Hussain.
( Gee.. how could that be?.. the people ELECTED him TWICE! ) /s
Doesn’t surprise me. Been reading quite a bit on the UN Target 10.7
Well Managed Migration:
There’s much more, but this should give you an idea
That’s going to go over well in NY, NJ and MN. As well as the rest of America.
A criminal and a public enemy who should be impeached.
More rapefugees = more terrorism = more funding to Homeland Security contractors = more kickbacks to Obama etal
Life is simple—they think we are stupid.
