Obama administration to go beyond 10,000 Syrian refugees, 80 percent approved, 7 percent denied
The Washington Times ^ | August 5, 2016 | Stephen Dinan

Administration officials said Friday that the 10,000 Syrian refugees President Obama wants to welcome this fiscal year is a floor, not a ceiling, and they can go even higher than that total.

“We can now say that we’ve welcomed 8,000 Syrian refugees so far this year and we are very confident we will welcome at least 10,000,” Assistant Secretary of State Anne C. Richard told reporters in updating the flow.

At today’s pace, more than 12,000 refugees could be admitted by the end of September, which marks the end of the fiscal year.

Those are part of the 85,000 total refugees from around the world that Mr. Obama has said he can accept.

The 7% denied must be those pesky Christians, trying to pretend they are being persecuted.

Since President Obama claims to have the “power” to settle these “people” in the US, may we conclude that President Trump will have the “power” to send them home again?

Agreed, the percentage of Christians coming in is infinitesimal compared to Muslims.

The entire country should be screaming bloody murder since this is what the terrorist invasion will be screaming murder on us when giving the signal to exercising a national jihad on us.

It's just a matter of time. This invasion is the equivalent of the United States drinking deadly poison.

No one in Congress cares. In Paul Ryan's case, he is accelerating the invasion process., and the idiots in WI will re-Elect this traitor to our country.

Absolutely. If Obama can decide this stuff without going through Congress, Trump can reverse it without going through Congress.

0bama is determined to hurt the country as much as he can before leaving office.

He slipped in 250 or so long-sentence felon commutations.

What's the over-under on how many he'll try to let off on his "grand-pardon" day at the end of his administration? And what percentage will be white?

I'm guessing 20,000, 2% white (or less). It will be a wholesale criminal amnesty.

We’ll have to start deporting these people in January.

That will not happen. We are effectively giving them citizenship.

The terrorism that's coming will be unspeakable. Congress does nothing except making empty comments, "our hearts go out to the victims and their families."

The World Trade Center/Pentagon bombings are all but forgotten. We're finished as a country.

President Trump needs to announce a repatriation plan on Day 1.
