The House overwhelmingly passed legislation on Tuesday (407 to 19) that would overhaul the federal visa waiver program and bar those from Iraq, Syria, Iran and the Sudan, or those who have visited those countries in the last five years, from traveling to the United States without a visa.

Action on the proposal comes in response to the recent attacks in Paris from ISIS operatives, and the shooting in California by a couple that expressed support for the terror group on social media.

"This will help neutralize the threat from foreign terrorists entering our country," House Speaker Paul Ryan said on Tuesday.

The eGOP wanted Obama twice, given to him by McCain and Romney.

Yes they lied, who'd thunk it?

The left is hoping for a Trump 3rd party then the eGOP will nominate Cruz to split the vote so their use of voter fraud (gives them about a 10-15% margin) will slide Hilliary in on the slime under her butt.

I wonder how many will vote to override a veto...

Well, it’s a start. In my view, Trump has forced the whole planet to confront the scourge of Islam, so this thing is only getting started.

Who knows how far it’ll all go? By November 2016, we could be ‘voting from the rooftops’.
