When the President of the United States asks the television networks to set aside time for him to broadcast a speech from the Oval Office, we can usually expect that he has something new to say. But President Obama's speech Sunday night was just a rehash of what he has been saying all along, trying to justify policies that have repeatedly turned out disastrously for America and our allies.
This was not a speech about how the Obama administration is going to do anything differently in the future. It was a speech about how Obama's policies were right all along. Obama is one of those people who are often wrong but never in doubt.
The president struck a familiar chord when he emphasized that we shouldn't blame all Muslims for the actions of a few. How many people have you heard blaming all Muslims?
Even if 90 percent of all Muslims are fine people, and we admit 10,000 refugees from the Middle East, does that mean that we need not be concerned about adding a thousand potential terrorists — even after we have seen in San Bernardino what just two terrorists can do?
The first responsibility of any government is to protect the people already in the country. Even in this age of an entitlement mentality, no one in a foreign country is entitled to be in America if the American people don't want them here.
Obama's talk about how we should not make religious distinctions might make sense if we were talking about handing out entitlements. But we are talking about distinguishing between different populations posing different levels of danger to the American people.
When it comes to mattersof life and death, that is no time for the kind of glib, politically correct rhetoric that Barack Obama specializes in.

OBAMA IS TRYING TO GET AMERICANS KILLED.
Obama may think of himself as a citizen of the world, but he was elected President of the United States, not head of a world government, and that does not authorize him to gamble the lives of Americans for the benefit of people in other countries.

Excellent.
This man is brilliant and straight to the point...I love Thomas Sowell.
Yep, and if he’s not stopped he may succeed.
“Even in this age of an entitlement mentality, no one in a foreign country is entitled to be in America if the American people don’t want them here.”
The Left does not believe this.
This is my opinion is the best line in Sowell's excellent column.
SOWELL: “The president struck a familiar chord when he emphasized that we shouldn’t blame all Muslims for the actions of a few. How many people have you heard blaming all Muslims?”
EXCELLENT POINT! Trump should latch onto this catch phrase:
“NOBODY IS BLAMING ALL MUSLIMS!”
Most terrorists are Muslims, that doesn’t mean we think ALL Muslims are terrorists.
Due to the mainstream media propaganda machine, most Americans don’t have a clue what Obama is doing with his policies. The first anti American President.
Precisely. There is no reason to fly refugees 6,000 miles from their homes unless you have the ulterior motive of destabilizing your own country's social order.
I think that 0bama and most of congress, both dems and reps, should be charged with Depraved Indifference for much of their policies during the last 50 years.
Worth repeating: “Obama may think of himself as a citizen of the world, but he was elected President of the United States, not head of a world government, and that does not authorize him to gamble the lives of Americans for the benefit of people in other countries.”
Simply put, we should not take anybody who will not better our country. I'm not anti-immigrant per se, but we are under no obligation to take anybody if we don't want to.
Well, they are being charged as such, de facto. It’s what Trump is doing. Step aside, liberals, Marxists, sixties radicals, leninists who have taken over the already questionable democrat party, the media, tge entire school system, the national budget, tge military, veterans affairs, nada, our culture, marriage.
Charged with having done enough damage, incapable of changing in accordance with reason. Step aside
Time’s up
To me, all Muslims are suspected terrorists. They prove it every day.
Actually they believe the world shouldn’t have borders, so they see to it that the door is left open and Americans get murdered. They never get called out on their stupidity though so why should they care. They are never responsible for anything.
Bump!
I think he already has seen success.
