    While the daily caller article interviews the former chief, he mentions how things should be done? Where is the guy going out on the line and taking responsibility by saying that this IS actually happening?
    The DoD and DHS have both said in the past, the vetting that is done by the Europeans will suffice. There are many cases in Germany where names are taken, checked against the German internal crime database (data base of crime in Germany), and papers printed on the spot! Is this the vetting our Agencies are OK with?

    I've come to feel that if someone is unwilling to inundate you with information and answers, there is something to hide. They aren't giving us answers.

    WHEN any of these "refugees" commits a terrorist act, anyone having anything to do with their migration into the U.S. should be held accountable; religious group or government.

    That's kind of like laying responsibility for murder on the parents of the murderer.

    As far as the Catholic Services goes, it's mostly about the money and they will "adjust" their principals to accommodate as long as they get it. These service organizations have changed from being run by religious figureheads to businesses run by CEOs and CFOs. I think that there tax-exempt statuses should be reevaluated. And, is it just me or do a LOT of the "refugees" in the videos seem to be military-aged males?

    Not to panic but just found out that, at this point, only 2 families have arrived so far. Not saying there won't be more (I'm sure there will!) but there aren't 10K muslims in New Orleans ... at least not yet.

    The picture in our local paper showed the first of many plane loads and there were a hundred or so - saw one pre-teen boy and no women or old people. Lots of military aged males. Lock 'n load.
    Obammy wins again.

    ok. Let them live next door to you then.

    It's bad people I have a problem with, not someone who is in a bad situation. Honestly, how would you feel if the shoe was on the other foot?

    Stuff is bad in Syria. I don't blame people for trying to find a better life.

    Your right Gus, I don't blame people for trying to find a better life. BUT, where will we go when we need to flee the violence?? Let's take every opportunity to stop it from coming here. I don't want my family our yours to have to have to deal with the same issues. Let's not let their problems become ours.

    Alabama and Michigan are both saying no to any new refugees until they get more information. Alabama has "not received any Syrian refugees to date".
    Jindal is "demanding more information" on the refugees from Obama yet, they will continue to roll in as planned.

    The time is now prepare yourselves physically, mentally, and spiritually.

    Between the wide open southern boarder a northern boarder that seems to operate more like a check valve, and now this government sponsored invasion, combine that with a economic policy ripe for collapse and the UN push for citizens to be disarmed we are being set up to be overthrown.

    I know I'm preaching to the choir but fellas dont get cought with your pants down.

    Whats the problem? Your U.S. Government has been importing these foreigners since 1970 at the rate of about 50,000 to 100,000 per year at least. It started with the Viet Namese people and continues every day of every year right under your noses. Since 1990 they have been importing the middle eastern people. Now it is the Syrians that have been coming for 2 years already actually because they don't tell you about all the exchange programs the gov. has.

    Unfortunately, state governors have no constitutional power to "say no".
