The first lady of the United States will be sitting with a Syrian refugee at this week's State of the Union Address. The refugee's name is Refaai Hamo.
"Growing up in Syria, Refaai Hamo lived what seemed to be the kind of life associated with the American Dream - the son of a farmer and housewife, he worked construction at night to pay his way through college on his way to a PhD, married his college sweetheart and built a family together. This life and happiness changed forever when a Syrian government anti-personnel missile tore through the complex Refaai designed and where his family lived; in total seven of his family members died, including his wife and one daughter," the White House explains in an announcement.(snip)
Hamo will be joined in the first lady's box by the plaintiff in Obergefell v. Hodges, the successful same-sex marriage Supreme Court case. Veterans, a drug reform advocate, the CEO of Microsoft, a criminal justice reform advocate, among others, will also be up there.

If the guy has earned a PhD he is NOT a typical Syrian refugee.
“You have to be nice to me. I’m a guest of Ms. Merkel.”
How predictable.
I would say we’ll all be glad to see the back of her, but...
What’s next? El Chapo on her other side?
The “ruling class”, who don’t have to endure any consequences, want the low-fo’s to see how much they care.
I wonder if she’ll wear one of her night club dresses. The woman doesn’t know how to dress for the occasion.
No, of course not.
And not with Katie Steinle's family or a murdered cop's family.
It couldn't be more obvious whose side the Obamas and their ilk are on.
Where’s the empty chair going to be Reminds all of Clint Eastwoods’s presentation at Repub convention.
That goes for me, too.
She’s used to sitting with a Kenyan refugee...
The new Transsexual is a Syrian refuge.
Prior to that it was gays.
Could this backfire in some kind of way.
There are a lot of people out there that understand what these refugees are doing to the safety of those around them.
Could the average voter begin to think Obama doesn’t care or condones it?
“”I can’t type what I’m thinking.””
Probably what most of us are thinking - I don’t know how to say it either...
