Amazing!

You don't seem to have a clue?

I wont hold it against you though since a majority of people believe the same thing!

One of the 9/11 19 hijackers came to the U.S. on a student visa.

The rest arrived here on tourist or business visas.

Do they do background checks on visa's?

You still say .. "No problem"?

I think the word is "moral"

Taking in refugees is moral. Turning them away is immoral.

Apparently the Dems are in on the plan. This "show vote" was bipartisan and passed with a veto proof majority in the House.

James Comey, FBI Directer says that we can't on the Syrian refugees.
We can't. Fewer of them would be coming if we would quit providing the arms though.

If National Security was an issue we would have the military patrolling our borders, not the borders of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, etc.

Nonsense. If turning them away means saving the lives of Americans then turning them away is moral.

If it saves just one life isn't it worth it?
