Obama demands compassion for Syrian refugees as he swears in new citizens
The Washington Times ^ | December 15, 2015 | Stephen Dinan

President Obama made a pitch Tuesday for Americans to remember their immigrant roots, describing the U.S. as the traditional home for refugees fleeing the world's worst troubles.

He compared today's climate of fear over immigration and terrorism to what he called some of the darkest days of the country's immigrant history, such as when black Africans were brought in the slave trade, when Irish and Chinese faced discrimination and when Japanese were pushed into internment camps during World War II.

"In the Syrian refugee of today we should see the Jewish refugee of World War II," the president said as he addressed several dozen newly sworn-in citizens at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.

Mr. Obama is trying to regain his footing after years of Congress ignoring his demand that they legalize illegal immigrants, and more recently after terrorist attacks in Paris and California raised fears over adherents to radical Islam using the immigration system to sneak into the U.S.

GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump has called for a temporary halt to admitting Muslims into the U.S., while a large bipartisan majority in Congress has demanded more checks on Mr. Obama's own vow to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees this fiscal year.

The president warned against giving in to those demands, saying the country has always struggled with those sorts of calls at difficult times.

I go with the latter also, being a con man is the only thing he’s good at.

Obama demands compassion for Syrian Muslims. No so much for the Christians fleeing ISIS.

Exactly!

We’re not talking about discriminating against immigrants, we’re talking about temporarily halting immigration to a group of people we see as a probable threat to our country. There’s a difference Obama.

One more thing that speaks volumes from this WH.....notice he isn’t going to any of the SB family funerals? Proving to me they did a hi-5 at WH the minute they knew it was a terror attack.

I guess President Obama has now crafted a catchall generic speech to bring every widow and orphan refugee in every strifetorn hellhole to the US. Next will be widows and orphans of Somali pirates currently residing underwater.

Obama has no compassion for Americans gunned down by Islamic jihad and he wants to bring still more Muslims here. Spare us the phony, self-serving halal lecture.

I’m sick of hearing it.

Obama hates America. His teachers taught him how to destroy it. They were never stupid, merely evil.

Oh yes, he definitely wants attacks here! The more the merrier! A terror threat in a school district that goes unfulfilled is to obama a missed opportunity to threaten to take our guns.

“In the Syrian refugee of today we should see the Jewish refugee of World War II”

More like the German immigrants to South America, like Joseph Menegle or Adolph Eichmann.

Obama is vile. Jewish refugees were innocent and contributed much to the world.

That fool can demand anything he wants, but no one with any sense is listening. Comparing these fake immigrants and refugees to our ancestors who came here from Europe and Asia 100-400 years ago is not going to impress anyone who isn’t brain dead.

Like most people I know, my ancestors left their home country to get away from literally being a serf if you weren’t royalty, tyrannical rulers and other real threats-mine left Spain to avoid being jailed and hanged as Basque rebels-I don’t know anyone whose ancestors came to what is now Texas or anywhere else in the US pretending to be a refugee, to get welfare checks and pursue jihad...

Compassion for the Americans who are going to be raped, have their necks sliced, or be murdered by the savages that he is importing.

“In the Syrian refugee of today, we should see the Jewish
refugees of WWII . . .”
I see that the majority of the photos of “refugees” out of
the Middle East of today are . . mostly military age Muslim
males - NOT the “women & children” of Obama’s fantasy.

Oh yeah, and I forgot - the Jews were not out to perform
“jihad”. Sorry, O. It’s like comparing APPLES to ORANGES.

Occurs to me if the West continues to bring in ‘moderate Muslims’, who will be left to ‘civilize’ all the ‘extremists’ Muslims from the countries ‘moderates’ were fleeing?? As if anyone cares about that.........

I can't recall Jewish people ever coming here to commit heinous acts of violence against innocent people on a mass scale to take over the world. Maybe I missed something.

You did. The Joooooz were planning to convert us using psilocybin-laced gefilte fish.

Arrest and indict for multiple treasonous acts , strip of citizenship , deport to Kenya ( land of birth ) Remove legacy from U.S. history . Except to mention that this was America’s first failed President . Hold the Liberals that put him in there 100% accountable : they all lose their rights to vote for life .
