Obama still plans to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees despite Paris terrorist attacks
The Washington Times ^ | November 15, 2015 | Valerie Richardson

A top White House adviser said Sunday that President Obama still plans to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees even as Republicans insisted that it's all but impossible to stop terrorists from hiding among the migrants.

"We're still planning to take in Syrian refugees," Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes said on "Fox News Sunday."

One of the terrorists in Friday's deadly attacks on Paris reportedly may have used a Syrian passport to enter Europe with a flood of refugees, but Mr. Rhodes expressed confidence in the background-check system.

"We have very robust vetting procedures for those refugees. It involves our intelligence community, our National Counterterrorism Center, extensive interviews, vetting them against all the available information," Mr. Rhodes said.

Rep. Peter King, the New York Republican who heads the House Homeland Security intelligence subcommittee, called that statement "untrue."

"There's virtually no vetting because there are no databases in Syria. There are no government records. We don't know who these people are," Mr. King said on "Fox News Sunday." "And when you meet with the people doing the vetting, they tell us that."

"They [the White House] are rolling the dice here, and we know that ISIS wants to bring in terrorists with these refugees," Mr. King said.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who is seeking the GOP's presidential nomination, agreed that "the problem is not the background checks, the problem is that we can't background-check them."

“ISN’T there ANYTHING we can do to stop this??????”

I know what I wish we could do——but I’d be banned and/or arrested.

Obama:

"There's no prettier sound than defenseless infidel Frenchwomen and children being slaughtered by my fellow Muslims."

Hussein plans?

Only how to cheat on his golf score.

He's a pathetic puppet of the oppressive shadow govt, just like almost all of the rest of our "representative" govt!

Bath house barry is intentionally bringing in these unvetted muzzies from Syria knowing full well that Isis WILL BE among them so that when they attack us he’ll make an end run to achieve his goals. After an attack he’ll declare martial law, suspend habius corpus, confiscate all guns, and ‘suspend’ elections thus installing himself as dictator for life... It may not be all of the above, but I’ll bet that guns are number one.

Here's all the vetting we need.

They are members of a 1400 year old murder cult commanded to enslave all of mankind.

Ship em back to satan's sand box, and bake till glowing for 10K years!

Perhaps 0dunga has an agreement with ISIS that these refugees wait to attack us until AFTER he has left office.

IMPEACH OBAMOHAMMED!

If these MOSTLY MALE refugees are leaving Syria because it’s so damn dangerous, WHY HAVE THEY LEFT THEIR WIVES, MOTHERS AND SISTERS BEHIND?

I call it treason, and as far as I’m concerned EVERY MEMBER of of his inner circle is guilty too.

That’s an excellent question for the turkey in the WH, one that he’ll never answer.

I think the Kenyan has just outworn his welcome.


After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding this
to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our turn is
coming again soon. We stand united against Islamic
extremists, oxymoron or not.

America needs to ban Islam from the country. Islam is not a religion, which means that we do not need to provide Islam protections under the Constitution.

Leftists are wringing their hands, as we know there are no peaceful practitioners of Islam. Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism all teach how to be better practitioners of their respective faiths. Only Islamic texts teaches Muslims how they are to treat & think of non-believers. Oppression, violence and murder!

Leftists are truly worried that their useful tool for power & control of Americans will be thwarted.

Now that he has seen how well it works in Paris, I’m surprised he didn’t bump it up to 10 million.
