KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) -- Brushing off refugee worries at home, President Barack Obama crouched alongside migrant children on Saturday and declared they are the opposite of terrorists wreaking havoc from Paris to Mali. Working to put a human face on the refugee crisis, he said, "They're just like our kids."

The refugees Obama encountered at a school for poor children in Malaysia were not from Syria, and unlike the flood of Syrians meeting steep resistance in the U.S., these migrants had already been cleared to resettle in America. Still, Obama said their faces could have been those of kids from Syria, Iraq and other war-torn regions whose pursuit of a life free from violence led them far from their native homes.

And why not?

He did a pretty good job of putting a human face on Iranian-born Valerie Jarrett!

Hey, 0bama! Bring in ALL the CHRISTIANS you want from every corner of the globe.

But, we are full, UP TO HERE, with Muslims and we’re sick to DEATH of YOU!

Isaiah 5:20 comes to mind in connection with western leaders who placate Islam, especially Christian leaders:

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!


Obama wearing ring even before marriage.

King Obama will take in at least a 2 million of these refugees before he leaves office. America cannot support this and who knows if there is ISIS among them. America is destroyed and most don't even know it yet. We will never recover even if Trump is elected.

We are definitely in a mess, but I believe good always overcomes evil; I see great days ahead for America, but not until after Jan. 2017.

He should put a human face on the Christians beheaded, drowned in cages, crucified or just murdered in front of their children.

Or maybe he should put a human face on kids going to a concert, rocking to the music right before they’re executed for no reason except their twisted philosophy.

Or the kids executed in their school for being Christian. That should be an easy one to put a face on, we send our kids to school every morning never dreaming a Muslim convert will gun them down.
