Obama Expects US To Admit 10,000 Syrian Refugees This Year
International Business Times / Reuters ^ | 28 April 2016

President Barack Obama said on Thursday he expected the United States would meet a goal of admitting 10,000 Syrian refugees before the end of the year despite delays and opposition from critics concerned about security implications.

As Europe grappled with Syrians fleeing the country’s civil war last autumn, Obama promised to admit 10,000 Syrian refugees by the end of fiscal year 2016. But the State Department reported on March 31, halfway into the fiscal year, that only 1,285 Syrians had been admitted into the United States.

Obama needs to join Osama under a billion tons of rock at Tora Bora.

Send them all on a full boat ride to Harvard....with his daughter who has been ‘selected to attend there’ after some period of unspecified “break time.”

Obama and his yes-men in Congress on both sides of the aisle will be personally responsible for every act of terrorism and every crime committed by these people and their children. I hope someone in the media has the courage and wisdom to hold them accountable - elites playing the virtue game and sticking the rest of us with the cost in money and damages.

These aren’t refugees they are migrants and 70% of them have been military age males. And there’s no way to vet them.

This presidency will assuredly go down as the most destructive to the American experiment in the history of the nation. A foreign president, raised on Marxism and hatred of Caucasians and the fundamentals on which the nation was founded. What could go wrong?

I would wager that he is sneaking in 10 or 20 times that number by using other programs and loopholes.

Obama is the most crooked, lying, deceitful, traitorous person to ever sit in the White House.

And it’s not as if there isn’t a lot of serious competition for that title.

What I want to know is why are they not resettling these potential vermin in DC? NO, it is a rhetorical question.

Obama’s allocated MORE money for each Syrian refugee than the average American (who's worked their whole lives) collects monthly from Social Security.

After 9/11, two guys with one rifle and a vehicle terrorized the entire Eastern Seaboard for weeks. Imagine if just .01% of Obama’s military aged Islamic refugees were activated...

How about we hold them accountable.

We already are - but the media won't. They refuse to identify Muslim terrorists as "Muslims". Islamic Somali refugees who were recently charged with brutal crimes are referred to as "Minnesotans" because they were settled in Minnesota. Americans who don't know or don't care will never realize or be told the amount of damage being done to our country by these Syrian "refugees".
