A group of 14 Democrat senators has written a letter to President Obama urging him to “dramatically increase” the number of Syrian refugees being resettled into American cities and towns.
They say the U.S. needs to take in at least 65,000 Syrians as permanent refugees over the next year-and-a-half.
“While the United States is the largest donor of humanitarian assistance to Syrian refugees, we must also dramatically increase the number of Syrian refugees that we accept for resettlement,” says the four-page letter to Obama, copied to Secretary of State John Kerry and Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson.
More than 3.5 million Syrians are registered with the United Nations as refugees, and the U.N. wants to assign about 350,000 of them to so-called “third-party countries.”
The 14 senators, led by Richard Durbin, D-Ill., Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., and Diane Feinstein, D-Calif., cite the research of the Refugee Council USA to make their case for 65,000 Syrian refugees by the end of 2016. RCUSA is the main lobbying arm of the nine agencies that contract with the federal government to resettle refugees in cities and towns across America.

A great explanation of what Obama is doing for the caliphate and to America is “The Betrayal Papers” which can be read on-line.
“There aren’t words strong enough to describe how I loathe these Bast**ds!”
I hear ya!
I'm biting my tongue. I won't say what I wish would happen to Dickhead Durbin. Suffice it to say, it wouldn't be pretty and likely quite messy.
Yes, you get it. It is almost impossible to get Americans to understand this long term Muslim scheme. They know they will never be the majority here but the goal is to get above 5% of the population so they can really leverage their power.
The SC is poised to make queer marriage a Constitutional right. at that point the Free Exercise clause of the 1st Amendment will be used to get the ant-polygamy laws voided. The Mormon schismatics will be the staking horse paid for by the muzzies. Then every Muslim man will be able to get his four wives into the US and that opens the gates to all their family members. Also with white working class men being marginalized in an economy that is in many was deindustrializing outreach by the muzzies to these marginalized and bitter men will gain some converts and they can be offered the ‘4 wives deal’ as well. It is amazing but not only to Americans not understand this maneuver but they just get angrily confused if you try and lead them through its steps.
I think the gay ‘marriage’ cases are the real precursors.
The vast majority of people feel panic when they hear an opinion that wasn’t taught to them in government school, or isn’t certified as “respectable” by one of the three broadcast networks.
I’m sure you’ve tried to give people the evidence that Obama’s “birth certificate” is a crude forgery, and been met with nothing but rage.
I have heard more than once that Obama is allowing NO, or almost NO, Christian refugees from the Muslim genocide into the U.S.
Is that true?
Is that Detroit?
I've heard that, but don't know for sure, either. There was the recent case of a Christian nun from Iraq who was denied a visa. She was to come and testify about what had happened to Christians and other Iraqi minorities at the hands of ISIS.
That caused a stink and she was later given a visa, after at first being denied.
But I don't think there is any doubt that Muslims are being given preference. There are as many or more displaced and endangered Christians in the ME as Muslims and Obama's incompetence is he reason for much of it. Don't know if any significant numbers of ME Christians are being allowed into the US. They should first on the list.
One quibble.
Obama is not incompetent. He always wanted the crucifixions, the beheadings, the burnings alive. Note that he never has any negative comment about the slaughter or torture of Christians.
If there are any Jews, Christians, or white people left alive on earth on January 20, 2017, Obama will view his time in office as only a partial success, with much remaining to be done.
They’re worth more than a US passport. Citizenship in this country is meaningless.
A bunch of certified nuts, as if we don’t have enough problems as it is, They must reside in a parallel universe! . But leave it up to socialist invariably they manage to come up with more delightful ideas and suggestions, unless of course anyone thinks that this country is in dire need of more members of the fabulous Religion of Peace .
No, people that I have mentioned the topic to just feel it is a kind of foil hat kooky thing. Sort of ‘who cares, what's the difference’ attitude. Now lets see what happens if Ted Cruz gets in striking distance of the GOP nomination. McCain, who was born at the US Navy Base at Coco Solo, Canal Zone had to spend a good bit of money opposing a court challenge mounted by a high power Dem lawyer that tried to argue he was ineligible to be President due to the location of his birth. This is in spite of the facts of the location was a US possession and both parents were natural born US citizens.
The difference between McCain and Cruz is that Soetoro—an illegal alien—has now squatted in the WH for two terms. If we weren’t talking about Democrats, I might say that nobody could be so shameless as to challenge Cruz’s eligibility.
The American people are armed, and will not tolerate government-financed terrorist acts, beheadings, rapes, etc., in the way that Europeans are already tolerating.
Bottom line: The Democrats and many Republicans are putting the troops in place for an attack on U.S. soil against the American people, and the American people will wage defensive war.
A delayed response. I think Obama is an ideologue and a con man. And I think he is extremely incompetent in many areas. Have never bought the notion that he's some evil genius who can foresee how any and every scenario will play out, and that he can manipulate every situation to come out as he wishes, even if he wishes the opposite of what he says publicly.
Most of the Middle East has blown up in his face. The MB regime he helped install in Egypt was overthrown. Libya is a disaster by any measure after they helped overthrow Gaddafi. Syria is complete chaos and he backed away from his 'red line' and no one really knows what's happening there, let along how to identify the "good rebels".
And I think he cavalierly ignored all the warnings of what would happen if he pulled all troops out of Iraq. That was arrogance, pigheadedness and incompetence of one who refused to alter his plans to avert the disaster those most experienced in Iraq told him would unfold.
If the MSM would report objectively about the results of his decisions and policies, he'd look like the biggest incompetent and screw up ever to occupy the Oval Office.
Oh, I don’t think he’s a genius. And the loss of Egypt by the MB was contrary to what Obama wanted.
But what is happening in Iraq was not the result of “pigheadedness” or “incompetence.” It is what Obama wanted: the beheadings, crucifixions, burnings alive, the slaughter of all non-Muslims.
Yes. Obama has had some “failures,” but NONE of the atrocities against non-Muslims is among those “failures.” Only the few setbacks for the Muslim murderers are failures from Obama’s point of view.
The only country where Obama's foreign policy has "blown up in his face" is Egypt, where the MB was thrown out.
Everywhere else in the ME, non-Muslims are being slaughered, raped, and driven into exile. I.e., precisely what Obama wanted.
Obama is the most successful President, domestically and in foreign policy, in U.S. history. People are suffering and dying at home and abroad.
