Where are the best places in the US for our new Syrian refugee friends?

Will Rogers once said, "A stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet." That's how I feel about the 10,000 or more refugees Obama has promised to bring to America. I want them to move to my little town. I want my hometown to have the very best modern traditions from Damascus, Aleppo, and Raqqah brought to my doorstep. If I can't move to the Middle East, the next best thing is to bring the Middle East here and have it all around me.

But unfortunately, my hometown doesn't have space for our Sunni and Shia future friends. Most of our multi-family homes and apartments are filled with other visitors who are as high on virtue as they are low on documentation. So I started wondering: what is the best place for all our soon to be great Syrian friends? Here's what I came up with:

1) Santa Monica, California. Santa Monica would be perfect for many Middle Eastern refugees. There is a wonderful pier and walkway along the beach filled with tons of bikini-clad women who love diversity and would surely welcome more of it. Santa Monica also has the advantage of being near Hollywood. Hollywood always has need of Arab actors to play heroes or helpless victims in movies about the CIA and American businesses manipulating the Middle East to their own end.

2) Greenwich Village, New York City. Sunni and Shia refugees with ultra-religious attitudes would be perfect for Greenwich Village. It's so culturally rich – with restaurants and gay bars with transvestites, not to mention the annual gay nude Halloween Parade.

Drop ‘em all in DC and in the surrounding communities, and DON’T let them out.

Somalis are just plain awful

Lots of Illegal Mexicans too

Which means the usual pluses and minuses

Many groups of whites too from all over basically who tend to blend in

In Williamson where I am our biggest immigrant group is Californians

Some are happy refugees

Some non repentant refugees

Some reluctant transfers

Nashville has now once again elected another yankee lefty as mayor

This will be the fourth two termed in a row

Amazing

And people think Nashville is conservative

Nashville is a deep blue island in a red sea. The pro-life amendment last year demonstrated that.

I may well join you in Williamson County very soon. We already have property there, but I wanted to hold off changing legal residences until my son graduated high school. With Comradess Barry I charge I may need to move now.

Gitmo.
Until a flotilla can be assembled to ship them back where they belong.

This time they’ll use muslims instead of traditional methods.

Who is using who? Muslims have a goal, a focus, Liberals are all over the map.

True. But isn’t it always the case that when evil colludes, both think they are in charge of the show? Its one of the main reasons evil fails more often than succeeded. It eventually attacks itself more than the thing it set out to conquer.

That's about like asking, "If you had a den of rattlesnakes move in to your house, where would you want to put your new pets?"

The 57th state, with 0lama when he retires.

(In other words....no state!!)

The bottom of the five Great Lakes works for me.

I guess you have a prison mentality.
