In the wake of the Islamic terrorist attack establishment Republican presidential contender Sen. Marco Rubio is standing by his support for bringing Syrian refugees into the United States of America, despite the evidence that the Paris murder-rampage involved at least one Muslim terrorist who had infiltrated Europe among the thousands of ârefugeesâ now leaving the Middle East.
Rubioâs astonishing doubling down on his support for this policy of national suicide was documented in a weekend article by our friend Matthew Boyle of Breitbart.
When Boyle asked Rubio if after the Paris attack he still supported bringing more Syrian ârefugeesâ to America (even though 77 percent of those entering Europe are young men of military age) Rubioâs spokesman referred him to two previous interviews Rubio has done on the matterâessentially confirming that Rubio still supports, at this time, bringing Syrian refugees into America.
But this should not have surprised Matt Boyle or anyone else familiar with Rubioâs thinking and record on refugee resettlement and the continued dilution of American exceptionalism with unassimilated Muslim immigrants.
As our friend Daniel Horowitz of Conservative Review documented back in 2013, âOne of the more obscure yet destructive provisions of the Gang of 8 bill⦠was section 3405 (page 693), which created an entire new pipeline for refugees. â¯This bill would have concocted an unconditional right to immediate legal permanent resident status for any person in the world who declares himself âstateless.â⯠Had the bill passed in 2013, it would have given the Obama administration power to define who is considered stateless.⯠Most of those likely to be designated as stateless are from Islamic hell holes and would include the Syrians, Somalis, Palestinians, and the Muslim Rohingya in Burma.â
In addition, noted Horowitz, section 3403 would have granted Obama broad authority to create entire classes of refugees by categorically declaring them eligible based on humanitarian grounds. Under existing law, to the extent it is adhered to, each application must be scrutinized on a case-by-case basis and the prospective refugee must demonstrate a credible fear of persecution on an individual level.
Section 3401 of the bill also dramatically weakened the precautions against fraudulent asylum petitions by, among other things, eliminating the time constraints on filing those applications.
In totality, concluded Horowitz, this bill would have created endless avenues for this president to bring in an unlimited numbers of Islamic immigrants from the most volatile corners of the world.
Whatâs more said Horowitz, while much of the media is promoting the notion that Rubio has changed his position on immigration, the reality is that to this very day he believes the Gang bill was good legislation.â¯
According to theâ¯Washington Post, Rubio said late last week that âthe bill had the correct security components but was waylaid by voter mistrust."⯠In other words, the bill was near-perfect, itâs just that the plebes werenât smart enough to understand its virtues.⯠Accordingly, Rubioâsâ¯current position is that the Gang of 8 was prudent legislation.
Now hereâs the key tie between the Boyle and Horowitz articles; Marco Rubioâs rehabilitation as a presidential contender has been based on two things, his well-rehearsed debate performances on national security issues, and his carefully crafted obfuscation of his continued support for the hated Gang of Eight approach to âcomprehensive immigration reform.â
But when you read the Boyle and Horowitz articles together the contradiction and cynical lies behind Rubioâs resurgence become obvious.
Much as Marco Rubio would like conservatives to think that he is one of us on national security issues, when you look at what he does, rather than listen to the carefully crafted words that he says, thereâs no daylight between Rubioâs position and Obamaâs policies on Syrian ârefugeeâ resettlement and Muslim immigration to America.
As Daniel Horowitz said, and we agree, Republicans would never nominate someone who openly promoted Obamacare, abortion, raising taxes, or increasing regulations. How can they possibly nominate someone like Marco Rubio who is on the wrong side of the most existential threat of our time and who â to this very day â defends a bill that would have saddled America with what we are seeing in Germany and France today?

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.
Isis Warns of New Attack on D.C.

He’s not running for his Senate seat. He’s all in for President. And amnesty for all.

Call your reps and tell them not one Syrian refugee is to be admitted to the USA.
You do not want another 9/11.
You do not want another Paris ...this time on our soil.
For the morons in DC who say we need to take our fair share of refugees, our fair share was 7,000 dead men and women killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, and 50,000 wounded warriors.
That was our fair share.
The Arabs with all their oil money can take care of their brothers.
Not our problem.
Make the call. It is time the jerks in DC are reminded who the bosses of this country really are.
Marco’s nuts.
He won’t keep his senate seat if he doesn’t register in time to run for the senate republican primary (he hasn’t gotten Rand Paul’s special treatment) and even if he somehow is miraculously able to register, he might not win because conservatives are sick of him here in Florida. Besides, the Senate is so boring to him, he can’t bother to show up for votes. Do you really believe, given all he’s said, that he would want to subject himself to all that tedium? Oh! The Ennui!/s
I’m sure someone in the GOPee has promised him at least the VP spot or else the poor little baby boy will be looking for some rich sugar daddy to grift off of.
No Syrian boys or men should be admitted to US. No Muzzies at all. Only Syrian women & children Christians should be admitted.
thus far I have seen no women nor children in any of the hordes of photographs of the syrian “refugees” i’ve seen posted on the net.
Even if there were some women, this does not mean we should admit them. There are also pro-ISIS women and women suicide bombers.
send the lot of em packing....
the states seem to be taking that view. and telling the federal government NO “Refugees” here.
Thanks, Mark Levin.
Another half pregnant conservative going down in flames
A community organizer was elected twice - hasn’t worked out so well has it?
Another candidate that hasn’t run a business or managed state? Another candidate that hasn’t served our country? Another candidate that makes a living from being re-elected each year? No thanks Mr. Rubio. Sincere in your desires for this country or not, we need someone else this time around.
Of course, that’s by design. Bring in young Muslims that will carry out 0bamao’s goal of an American caliphate under Sharia law.
Totalitarian leftist, Jihadist, Satanist. Is there any real difference? 0bama is all 3.
