Sadly, the 300,000 American Syrians are now being scrutinized by government. The government thinks that there may be some Assad supporters who might want to retaliate. Sure, that's why they fled Syria under Daddy and Junior Assad and are living in the US.

If she did start talking about it, it would be a problem, and I would seriously question her credibility. Once more information comes out, we'll see what she says.
The things people say and think it doesn't apply to them.

Not in the minds of the rest of us. People knew that both McCain and Romney were better qualified. There is absolutely no dispute about that. If you want to continue to pursue your insane point of view, please, list the accomplishments that Obama had achieved by the time he was elected which qualified him to be POTUS. Please - I'm begging you. Do it if only for the sheer entertainment value.
I think you know what to expect, but it is always worth hearing it again for the entertainment value.

Well --- take a look at those Chechnyan "refugees" that fled their country and hated Americans with so much passion that they meant to kill and maim as many as they could at that Boston Marathon.

And --- why can't the refugees go back and fight their own country's battles? Freedom isn't free and maybe it's time Syrians and others stop expecting Americans to do their fighting and dying for them?

She's dirty, but the American public are so lazy it doesn't matter as much any more.
I didn't realize that the foundation was investigated and it was determined by a court that there was any wrongdoing.

Do you have a link?

Differ strokes for different folks. What I find amusing, you don't. Doesn't mean you are right. Thanks for the giggle.

Don't be so dramatic. If it was up to you, you would have Chechnyans, Arabs and ALL Muslims deported, along with every other nationality or religion that you can't stand - whether they are legal or illegal. Clearly what you feed your mind doesn't agree with you. It shows in your attitude. the refugees aren't looking for a battle, they happen to be caught in between it. They had as much say in the civil war as you do with your government - which is none.

If that's your attitude, then maybe someone should have told the Jews to stay in Germany and fight their own battle.

I see no point in bringing in refugees that cannot assimilate into American culture and that will only end up killing Americans.

Maybe the cowards shouldn't run from the fights for their own country. Let them stand up and do something for their countries. I certainly don't see sending Americans in when refugees only run.

In reality, the vast majority did just that. They were refused by most nations. Only a relative few got out.

No one believed the rumors about what was happening to them. Or they did know and didn't care.
