As a result of the Kentucky case, the State Department stopped processing Iraq refugees for six months in 2011...

In 2009 Alwan applied as a refugee and was allowed to move to Bowling Green, where he quit a job he briefly held and moved into public housing across the street from a school bus stop, and collected public assistance payouts...

My gosh, we let our enemies into the country to live and provided them free subsistance! Do we really deserve to win?

They KNEW these were murderers.

They KNEW there would be no accountability
and that the submissive Congress would laugh as the blood
flowed, as it did in New York, In PA, in Boston,
and at the Pentagon.

They KNEW.

But then liberals have told us that the vetting process is stringent, and that if you oppose these refugees, you are bigoted and heartless and un American.

Per Obama the GOP is afraid of widows and 3 year old.orphans. Obama dies not address the fact that most “refugees” flooding out of the middle East are young men. Where are the women and children? Where are the older people???

Well .. I wouldn’t be surprised .. there are certainly enough Terrorist Training Camps where they can easily hide out.

Nobody seems to be concerned about them at all. I hope we have not shot ourselves in the foot by allowing this to go on right under our noses.

Mile? How about a 1 BLOCK radius of Rimes Square?

When - not if - we have the next terrorist attack in the U.S., Obama and the Democrats will own it.

They will still try to blame it on Bush, but they will own it.

Like I said before, the years after after 9/11 i would get a car home from work.

Nice Middle Eastern guys. Amiable enough.

And if I gave them any hint that i could see both sides of the attacks, the muslim tirade would come.

Just my own little experiment.

Disgusting.

EVERY SINGLE
ONE.

not one deplored it.
