AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - A U.S. judge denied for the second time a request by Texas to bar relief agencies from bringing Syrian refugees into the state, a decision that could have a bearing on the attempts of 30 other governors to block refugees from their states.

Maybe someone should sue the Feds on religious discrimination. That might hold it up. Or at least get some Christians into the mix.

The federal government is going to force us to accept them.
It’s part of a larger plan that will not be stopped unless we elect someone who will stop it.

George W. Bush.

The man who, despite ALL historical evidence, called Islam a “religion of peace”.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Well, I agree with the judge...Let ‘em in...

In fact, build them safe housing...Surround their housing with a concrete wall 30 feet high with concertina wire draped and covering the top...Put a tower with armed guards every 100 feet ...Of course, to keep people out, you know...

yep...Help ‘em out, poor refugees....

Agreed. Alinsky is in full force.

.......hmmm...........I think some of these women that are being groped and raped by muzzies of all stripes would disagree with Godbey on the definition of “irreparable harm.

Have them live next door to the judge.

Better yet, declare the judge's property under eminent domain to house them.

Federal judges can not be recalled. Only impeached by Congress.

Many of these “AID” agencies are national contractors paid by the federal government to resettle refugees, and they are paid millions of dollars to do so each year. This has become big business, and these companies have a left-wing agenda. This is more than it seems, and the American electorate has become too ignorant to see this resettlement scam for what it is.

Our nation is sliding down the crapper.

Remember that next time you want to “compromise” with the people doing it. :)

Islam is a low tech tool for governments to use in a society addicted to high tech methods. The arrivals are clean skins, meaning blank slates to be used without any traceability back to the one commissioning the work to be done.

Judge David Godbey, you aren’t related to certain Antonio López de Santa Anna by any chance are you?
