President Barack Hussein Obama, in a determination letter to Congress, has announced that he will allow an additional 80,000 immigrants - mostly from Islamic countries - to resettle in the United States during fiscal year 2011.
Mr. Obama says that the increase in Muslim immigrants is justified by humanitarian concerns or is otherwise in the national interest.
The following goals for new immigrants has been set as follows:
Africa . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15,000 East Asia . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19,000 Europe and Central Asia . . . . . . . . . . 2,000 Latin America/Caribbean. . . . . . . . . . . 5,500 Near East/South Asia. . . . . . . . . . . 35,500 Unallocated Reserve . . . . . . . . . . . . 3,000
Refugee Resettlement Watch and other organizations have expressed grave concern that Mr. Obama is allowing so many immigrants into the country while so many Americans remain out of work and living in poverty.
According to the US Department of Labor, 14.8 million Americans remain unemployed. 6.1 million have been out of work for 27 weeks or over.
This figure has been challenged by the Union of the Unemployed who provide statistics that the actual number of unemployed Americans is 31 million.
The U. S. Census Bureau shows that the median household income for Americans has fallen to $49,777 - a decline of 0.7% in the past year.
One in seven Americans no longer can feed themselves.
According to The Wall Street Journal, 14.3% of the American people live in abject poverty.
A refugee is defined by The US Department of Immigration and Naturalization as someone who has left ones country due to persecution or a fear of persecution.
This accounts for the sharp rise of Somali communities throughout the country.
However, the definition of refugee is fudged in several cases. Refugees who have not left their country due to persecution, according to Mr. Obamas determination letter, can still be called refugees if they are from Iraq, one of the Islamic countries of the former Soviet Union, or Cuba.
According to Section 413 (a) of the Immigration and Nationalities Act, the Office of Refugee Resettlement is required to submit an annual report to Congress on the activities of the refugees.
The report is supposed to include the number who are on public welfare programs.
But no report has forthcoming from the Office of Refugee Resettlement since 2007.
True and more reason to vote this November and in 2012 to get rid of the anti-american politicians in DC, the Demorats, RINOS, dhimmis all of them!
“excessive, gross, immoral, tasteless, obese, vulgar lifestyle.”
Speaking of which....

BARACK OBAMA
Point being...the entire state legislature, the affected governor..and Federal Congressional delegation need to tell him..”not here..not in this unemployment environement, and by no means to be added to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid or the state welfare rolls. He and his party need to be called out bigtime in public...on a very practical level. Unless 80,000 Muzzies are bringing with them 80,000+ jobs...no way...no how.
Truth, but of course, the solution is not Islam.
The host needs another virii injection from Dr. Death.
Thanks!
U welcome! :)
Are these the Imam’s relatives or his private Army?
No No No 80,000 times no.
I didn’t mean anything of the sort. I just thought that was a PERFECT description of the Obamas’ lifestyle.
In many ways, American life has in fact become materialistic and vulagar. These are functions of Leftist philosophy—not traditional values.
Isn’t there SOME WAY we can reverse this now that we have more conservatives in place?
I’m sure there is. I’d say we let our congressional reps. know that we need a moratorium on refugees being admitted into the US period. And require Muslim countries accept muslim refugees before we even consider them here.
I always have questioned why the US/Europe et al... take in Muslim refugees but never do we hear about other Muslim countries, i.e. Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Indonesia etc... taking Muslim refugees.

In my opinion we should not accept any more muslim refugees at all.
