Obama doesn’t let Christians from Syria get asylum anyway because Assad doesn’t persecute Christians.
The US limited immigration in past eras of the Republic to keep radicals and anarchists out. They didn’t want East European radicals coming over here engaging in the same revolutionary tactics (throwing bombs and engaging in assassination of public officials) which is what such revolutionaries were doing in Eastern Europe at the time. If that was a logical policy in past eras, why is it not logical now?
We have halted immigration before but I guess the Democrats haven’t read history.
I thought Donald Trump was *eviscerated* for this sort of thought.
I agree.
However, if you travel out of the country a lot, you come to expect that an American passport gets you into most countries without a visa.
I would expect the countries affected and will require Americans to also obtain visa's. It will be interesting to see how the Americans affected (mostly in the oil industry) will react.
Good post.

Yesterday morning this was a quiet back bench idea.
Today the House has passed a bill.
This is why I say that the Trump Administration has already started.
This will be a ‘show vote’, as it won’t go anywhere. None the less, Trump has been vindicated.
January 2017 is getting closer by the day.
Some of the people voting for this are calling Trump Un-American.
The hypocrites!
Thank you.
Politico: Republicans Concede Donald Trump 'Has a Point' on Muslim Migration Moratorium
From Eliza Collings writing at Politico:
While many in the GOP are fiercely condemning Donald Trump for his proposal to temporarily ban all Muslim from entering the U.S., there's a whole lot of other Republicans who are saying, hey, he has a point.
From established party figures such as
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)and Rick Santorum to the more hardcore right-wing personalities such as Ann Coulter, numerous Republicans are either stopping short of condemning Trump's audacious proposal or are outright applauding the billionaire businessman as finally offering a commonsense solution to terrorism threats.They are offering a glimpse into why Trump has continued to zoom ahead in the polls, despite a series of jaw-dropping comments that the many in the media, and now the White House, have presented as not only offensive but disqualifying for the leader of the free world.
Santorum, who is at the bottom of the polls in the GOP race, aligned himself with the man...
Well the radicalized wife of the recent terror shooting came in from Saudi Arabia so what good is this bill? Trump is right no Muslims from anywhere.
Christians should be given visas.
Those claiming to be Christians need to be vetted for those with a "jail house" conversion [Jail Chaplin speak.]
BUMP!
Add Yemen, Saudia Arabia, Qatar, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Kosovo, etc..
Islam is a death cult. Any of the faithful who reads what’s in that Koran will find they are allowed.....no REQUIRED... to commit heinous acts.
I am sure the majority are civil people but the evil minority is just way to big of a minority for a safe America.
All non natural born citizens need to be shown the door.
Maybe this bill will help but here is a cautionary story I read somewhere recently.
A mid-eastern fellow had his passport taken for some offense. He simply applied for a new one, saying that he had “lost” his. The govt sent him a new one.
