14 US Senators tell Obama: Bring MORE Syrians to America (65,000 is a good number!)
Posted by Ann Corcoran on May 22, 2015
Update May 24th: Be sure to see Leo Hohmanns good article at World Net Daily on this newest push for a mass infusion of Syrians into the US. Also, on this Sunday morning is your church indirectly supporting the resettlement of 65,000 mostly Muslim Syrians to America? Click here.
Urgent update! If your Senator is listed here, you really need to get the word out so that they get an earful from constituents!
Breaking News: According to Durbans press release, all nine federal resettlement contractors are urging Obama to bring in 65,000 Syrians before his term ends!
Led by Senators Dick Durban (D-IL) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) (we dont have enough Muslims in Minnesota yet!), fourteen US Senators are urging Obama to open the flood gates to the Syrian (mostly Muslim refugees) the UN has picked for us and that the refugee contractors are now lobbying for us to take.
[See yesterday, Syrian resettlement as jihadi pipeline!]
Here is Senator Durbans press release and a portion of the letter:
NH Senator Jeanne Shaheen: Lets bring in 65,000 Syrian refugees! It is our moral duty! Shaheen is one of 14 Senators who have asked Obama to open the flood gates! WASHINGTONU.S. Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) today led a group of fourteen senators in calling on President Barack Obama to significantly increase the number of Syrian refugees allowed to resettle in the United States. The Syrian conflict has led to the worlds worst ongoing humanitarian crisis and the worst refugee crisis since World War II.
Our nations founders came to our shores to escape religious persecution and the United States has a long tradition of providing safe haven to refugees, the senators wrote. The United States traditionally accepts at least 50 percent of resettlement cases from the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). However, we have accepted only approximately 700 refugees since the beginning of the Syrian conflict, an unacceptably low number. While the United States is the largest donor of humanitarian assistance to Syrian refugees, we must also dramatically increase the number of Syrian refugees that we accept for resettlement. [The number is actually 843/92% Muslim.ed]
Not a single word about the fact that these members of the Refugee Council USA have a financial interest in bringing in this huge number of Syrians that the FBI has already said cannot be properly screened! Nonpartisan my foot! These members of the Refugee Council USA are all members in good standing of the hard LEFT.
Indeed, we cannot expect countries hosting Syrian refugees to continue shouldering such a disproportionate burden if the United States and other industrialized countries do not begin resettling many more Syrian refugees. UNHCR is seeking to resettle 130,000 Syrian refugees over the next two years and has thus far submitted more than 12,000 resettlement cases to the United States for consideration. Refugee Council USA, a nonpartisan coalition of the leading U.S. refugee organizations (including Church World Service, HIAS, Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, Episcopal Migration Ministries, USCCB, National Association of Evangelicals World Relief), recently called for the United States to resettle at least 65,000 of these Syrian refugees by the end of 2016. [This is news! Initially only the International Rescue Committee called for 65,000, now we see it is all of the so-called religious federal government contractors.ed]
[ .]
In short, it is a moral, legal, and national security imperative for the United States to lead by example in addressing the worlds worst refugee crisis of our time by greatly increasing the number of Syrian refugees who are resettled in our country.
Funny that Durban doesnt list the other signatures on the letter in his press release. In order to see them, go here, to the RCUSA website.
Here they are:
Al Franken (D-MN)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)
Patty Murray (D-WA)
Robert Menendez (D-NJ)
Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)
Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH)
Christopher Coons (D-DE) LOL! Delaware hasnt taken a refugee in a couple of years!
Tim Kaine (D-VA)
Edward Markey (D-MA)
Sherrod Brown (D-OH)
Mazie Hirono (D-HI) LOL! Last I looked Hawaii took a whole 7 refugees last year!
One must assume that by mentioning the 65,000 desired by the refugee resettlement contractors (via RCUSA), all 14 are on board with the number!
How about if we divide 65,000 by the 14 above and put 4,642 Syrians in each of their home towns!
What could go wrong?
Well for starters, in about a year or so, they’ll all want to bring their family members over here..and we of course can’t keep families separated..so 65k morphs into 250k
250k Dem voters
We must stop electing career politicians, they don’t care for me, you or the country.
democrats. Looking for illegal votes.
14 idiots giving aid and comfort to the enemy, despite that the rich islamist countries have refuse to admit the Syrians themselves!
Read more in Ann Corcoran's article, "Why should US/Europe take Syrian refugees while Gulf Arab states take ZERO?."
Great idea! Send them to the states these senators come from. The people in those places must be so stupid they will never know that they have welcomed more freeloaders who hate America into their states.
Yep, chain migration. Thanks Uncle Teddy!
There’s a medical clinic here that has a flood of new patients who will actually unroll a prayer rug out in the waiting room and then bang their heads on the ground.
If I wanted to experience the 3rd world, I’d visit or move there.
He clearly has an agenda — and it is “death to America”
Fourteen senators. If this is such a wonderful idea, let us repatriate ten refugees to the household of each and every on of these senators. Your house. Ten refugees. If it is good enough for the rest of us, they should have no problem leading the way.
Democrats are doing all they can to turn this country into a ROP hellhole.
What asshat traitors. Traitors to their oaths, traitors to America. These political hobos should be arrested and placed in chains for the rest of their malignant LIB lives.

ya know, I read something about this long ago. Hmmm.. what was that document? Ah yes, found it. And here are a few excerpts:
...He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless {fill-in-the-blank} Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within....
Gee, I wonder how that story ended?
just sayin...
We need to do something to help them— I dont know what the right answer is as to what to do though
Those Senators will be more than happy to have them imported into their states- that’s what it is all about- bringing in more foreigners to become lockstep voters who will secure these Democrats’ power.
For every one imported, deport a Democrat to France.
It will do no one any good to contact Amy Klobuchar or Al Franken. They are hardheaded imbeciles of the highest order. They know better than their constituents what is needed. Mind closed, ears plugged - attention on their own interests only...
It is more than that. It is to counter Christian/Jewish influence and expand anti-American and anti-Israel sentiment and perhaps also bribes are involved.
