He is probably too busy trying to resurrect his 2013 budget scheme to cut the benefits and pensions of disabled war vets who had their limbs blown off in combat.
Disabled Military Retirees Not Exempt from Pension Cuts in (Ryan) Budget Deal

PAUL RYAN, HOUSE GOP LEADERS SET THE STAGE FOR COMING CAVE TO Newly elected House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)58% is setting the stage this week to cave to President Barack Obama’s efforts to resettle thousands of Syrian refugees across America, even in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks.
On Wednesday afternoon at 4 p.m. ET, the House Rules Committee will meet to prepare a bill from House Homeland Security Committee chairman Rep. Mike McCaul (R-TX) that doesn’t end up stopping Syrian refugee resettlement in America. Sources Congress-wide confirm to Breitbart News that McCaul’s bill leaves the entire refugee program unchanged and doesn’t affect funding for the program.
The bill number is H.R. 4038 and its title is the American SAFE Act of 2015. “SAFE†stands for “Security Against Foreign Enemies,†and McCaul has billed the legislation in the headline of a House Homeland Security Committee press release as an act that would “Protect Americans from ISIS.â€
“America has a proud tradition of welcoming refugees into our country, and we lead the world in humanitarian assistance. However, we also must put proper measures in place to ensure our country’s safety,†McCaul said.
The bill requires the nation’s top security officials—the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Director of the FBI, and the Director of National Intelligence—to certify before admitting any Syrian or Iraqi refugee into the United States that the individual does not represent a security threat. I sent a letter to President Obama on Monday calling for a temporary suspension of Syrian refugee admissions until a full review of the resettlement program, including vetting security risks, could be completed.

The only purpose the federal government serves is to endanger all of our lives.
On purpose.
Boner Part Deux
That’s why I have to laugh at the “revitalized second party” rhetoric that certain talk show hosts are still spouting. Even in Reagan’s time it was a Uniparty.
FUPR! Wimp!

Paul Ryan talks out of both sides of his Hoop Skirt! HE’S A WUSS!!!
What would the Republicans possibly gain by going along with this? They can’t say the corporate Republicans want cheap labor by allowing Syrians in, and the majority of the country is against this, so what is the reason not to fight this vigorously?
You are so right.
They always sound weak when they really don't believe the material.
Reciting lines rather than speaking from the heart. And spine.
Post of the day.
I’m not sure I can stand another Democrat.
Let’s try a conservative instead.
Other than those choices, I'm loading ammo and getting range time with my kids.
Meet the new leader, same as the old leader...GOPe, RESIGN!!!!
I heard his crap today...all about process. Typical DC whore.
He starts off with ‘I repect our taking in refugees’ and ‘to not is against our values’ kind of consulatant talk.
Sounds just like the Dems.
