As I’ve said many times, frequently you can find better and more accurate reporting in the UK media. Such is the case here.
In the wake of what occurred recently in Paris and with the flood of potential ISIS infiltrators into Europe — literally changing the face of Europe itself — it would appear that, unlike Mr Obama, state governors can actually learn from tragedy and stupidity.
There is now pushback against Obama’s plan to purposely import Muslim corruptors into the United States.
From the UKDailyMail.com:
Alabama, Michigan, Texas, Arkansas, Indiana and Louisiana governors start refusing Syrian refugees in wake of French terror attacks
by Associated Press
- Alabama Governor Robert Bentley has announced he is refusing Syrian refugees relocating to his state
- Governor Rick Snyder of Michigan also said his state would postpone efforts until federal officials fully review security clearances and procedure
- Governor Bobby Jindal asked the White House how many Syrian refugees have been resettled in Louisiana
- Gov Jindal said he wanted the information ‘in hopes that the night of horror in Paris is not duplicated here’
- Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Governor Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas also said that they would not be allowing Syrian refugees into their states
- Governors Mike Pence of Indiana and Charlie Baker of Massachusetts will not allow refugees into their states at this time, they said
Alabama Governor Robert Bentley has announced he is refusing Syrian refugees relocating to his state on the same day Governor Rick Snyder of Michigan said in a statement that his state would also postpone efforts until federal officials fully review security clearances and procedure.
In a news release Sunday Bentley said, ‘After full consideration of this weekend’s attacks of terror on innocent citizens in Paris, I will oppose any attempt to relocate Syrian refugees to Alabama through the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program.
‘As your Governor, I will not stand complicit to a policy that places the citizens of Alabama in harm’s way.’
Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker and Governor Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas also said on Monday that they would not be allowing Syrian refugees into their states at this time.
However, it’s already too late for Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal. Syrian “refugees” are already landing in New Orleans, courtesy of Mr Obama. Unless and until Governor Jindal likewise tells the Obama Admin: “not just no, but hell no.” He’s already asked “how many” have been resettled in LA. Taking bets on Governor Jindal even gettting a response from DC.

As Chief Dan George once said, regarding this logical and common-sense pushback: “my heart soars like an eagle.”
We need more pushback.

If Jindal is serious about his position, he’ll isolate the “refugees” and then bus them to deecee.
Off topic, excellent header picture.
Thank you very kindly Grog. I change it up now and then to keep myself from getting bored. I also like to change my background to keep from getting further bored. Refugees might like to occupy all the parks in DC, perhaps.
Tent cities. If DC builds it, they may come.
But keep Syrians OUT of any other portion of the US.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today said: “Defeating ISIS involves projecting American ideals to the world. This un-American rejection of refugees, who will face significant security checks prior to entry, sends entirely the wrong message. Governors who reject those fleeing war and persecution abandon our ideals and instead project our fears to the world.”
Now this just hurts my feelings. I wish I could share the love in my heart with all those poor misunderstood followers of the religion of peace. I am so humiliated by this, to think we would reject someone just because we are concerned about our own safety?…Oh, no, it must be because of our American privilege, or our misguided sense of superiority or, or something. I know it just has to be our fault. What must they think of us? I need to find my safe space and have my hot chocolate until I can cope with the feelings of self loathing I am experiencing. Wait. I have an idea. Perhaps if we asked them nicely to forgive us for our American ideals we could all then become friends? Maybe if I started a petition to our noble president he could take it to the UN and the whole world would join. I know the president would like this ’cause we all know how he feels about American ideals .
Wow, I feel empowered! Yes, that will show those little darlings what we are really all about. And then the world will live as one! And all because of ME!
On the other hand, this makes me pig biting mad since CAIR obviously doesn’t give a rats rear end about ISIS projecting Islamic ideals, death and destruction on the innocent citizens of the world. They can take their faux concern and insert it where the sun shineth not.
It is time to stop being ‘guilted’ into self destructive behavior. Go, governors! Power to the States!
