Agree. It created a momentum break for the new administration, and they will waste time and political capital cleaning this up that would be better spent getting their cabinet through the Senate.
Don’t get me wrong. I want a massive reduction in Islamic migration, from all sources into my homeland. A total ban would be fine with me. But that needs to be phased in step by step with the rubber heating the road at US visa offices overseas, not at US airports.
We need to slow boil the frog, not deep-fry the frozen turkey.
How dare you disagree with a far right wing position. /s
The immediacy of it is just heavy handed and illogical. If green card holders are such a danger why aren’t the ones here now being expelled immediately? This heavy handed action just catches a few little fishes at great expense.
If this is the kind of advice Mr. Bannon has to offer I think he needs to go back where he came from. He appears to be as much of a Svengali as Jarret was. I did not vote for this kind of conservativism but I did vote to expel and exclude illegals and the mass of refugees and drastically improve our vetting process while placing greater limits on immigration even eliminating it for a long time.
“Ah, and so you believe their citizenship status gives us assurance that they will not commit terrorist acts? A bit naive, isn’t it?”
And so, according to this flawless logic, anyone of this stripe regardless of the duration of their citizenship may commit a terrorist act and therefore should be prevented from re-entering the country if they leave.
Sounds a lot like McCarthyism to me.
I’m pretty sure I’m not capable of committing a terrorist act but I’m not so sure about the rest of you. Oh my!
No..... You can put on your pink vagina hat and go back to where you came from. I'm guessing that would be France.
Some people stuck at the airport and you join the media!
With that line, you have revealed yourself as a liberal.
There has to be a better place to find a compendium of conservative news and intelligent discussion of current events on the web.
In The Corner with you. They’re hoping Trump will “reverse course.”
Seriously. 0bama was Valerie Jarrett’s puppet.
I don’t get it. Unless they’re pursuing deportation, what’s the point in banning green card holders? They live here. They likely have homes and jobs here. That’s just asking for awful optics and backtracking.
In the files of Wikileaks, there is a long story of how the order to go get Osama was finally given. Try searching on Leon Panetta. The veracity of the story is unknown. It’s plausible given the photo of a President called to the situation room last minute.
Because it was the easiest first step.
And my understanding is that those who were en route are just being DETAINED.
Everyone who is over reacting like you seems to think that they are banned. Maybe they will be, but for now, I have not heard any more than that they are being detained.
Everyone else now has fair warning.
IBTZ.
Because they could be terrorists.
So what if they live here.
They already know that they are on thin ice, that they are here as guests and that card can be revoked any time the US darn well pleases.
So what if they live here.
Good luck selling that one.
Sloppy vetting before issue of green cards for at least prior 8 years???
Better get used to it.
Valerie Jarrett?

Don’t let the door hit ya, on your way out to find that ‘better place’.
