This Thanksgiving, President Obama is calling for Americans to lend a helping hand to another group of pilgrims fleeing persecution.
"Nearly four centuries after the Mayflower set sail, the world is still full of pilgrims - men and women who want nothing more than the chance for a safer, better future for themselves and their families," Obama said in his weekly address Thursday. "What makes America America is that we offer that chance."

Yup, the same ones who are insisting that Jesus was a "refugee."
Bottomless stupidity.

He also believes Islam has always been part of the fabric of the nation.

"What makes America America is that we offer that chance."Oh. So now America IS an exceptional country, eh?
What about all that bullsh*t about Greeks thinking Greece is exceptional and Turks thinking Turkey is exceptional?
Oh. Right. It was all bullsh*t.

Wordy sounding utterances with absolutely no meaning behind them.

Well we all know how the European expansion into what we call the US went for the natives...no wonder he used that analogy.

Pilgrims and Syrian refugees. No comparison. Imam Obama is certifiably insane, and thinks we are all imbeciles.

My descendant was George Soule who was an indentured servant on board the Mayflower. I find Zeros entire existence to be offensive

I love how Rush told the story (yesterday) about how the Pilgrims tried socialism, and IT DIDN’T WORK.

What a minute. Let's give this the proper liberal perspective:
The Pilgrims were the first wave of invaders bent on genocide of the Native Americans. If the Pilgrims could have been stopped, genocide may have been prevented.
Therefore should they not have been prevented from invading?

Obama, the PILGRMS didn't have terrorists in the group. I never heard that William Mohammad Al-Bradford decided to become a SUICIDE BOMBER and killed the Pilgrims.
To FReepers, happy Thanksgiving and give thanks that by this time next year, Cruz/Trump or Trump/Cruz will be president-elect and the Muslim in Chief will be on the way out after 8 years of MARXIZING the USA.

Actually Obama is 100% correct.
The Pilgrims ended up taking over the entire continent where they landed and killing off most of the existing inhabitants and oppressing those who they did not kill.
This is exactly the intention of the moslems who come to this country.
To: detective
Well we are a Muslim nation after all. :-)

The scary part is that the malignant narcissist thinks we're stupid enough to bite for his BS. A significant fraction of us are (Mitt's 47%?), alas.

He must have brain damage.
You are giving Obama credit....FOR HAVING A BRAIN!!
Happy Thanksgiving all. Be Thankful that this time next year, Trump/Cruz or Cruz/Trump will be President-elect.
