Really a statesman?

Hillary supporters want four more years of the last eight. What is wrong with this picture!!!

We don't need a speech. We need clowns like him and hil to get a clue and realize at the very least we can't be letting in refuges from terrorist sponsored nations who we can't possibly vet.

The herd as always is lost/beyond naive. "Give us a great speech they cry and we all will be/feel much better and the problem will be fixed!"

Please.

Yes and Obama is a very bad salesman at that. By this time, most of us with a brain in our head, knows the scope of what is going on.


He can paint the picture any way he wants, but we know the truth of the matter.

We don't know if Rahimi was a refugee. He's a legal immigrant citizen of the United States but born in Afghanistan. We don't know if he got here recently or a long time ago. We don't even know for sure he's Muslim.

The vast majority of refugees want to escape terror and oppression, not cause it.

true..a vast majority.... at least 75%, possibly 90%

but the fact remains that if you let 100,000 in and 90% was peace, but 10% are jihadists ...that's still 10,000 jihadists

even if it was a 99/1 ratio...it would still be 1000 would be terrorists

we need better vetting....not just for the '''current''' refugees, but for all.....this guy could have been here 20 years, just waiting for the time

and the liberals wont do it

We cannot take the chance for more terrorist attacks either way.

Default It All falls Apart!

This is a end result of the Obama & Clinton foreign Policy. It was not of matter if, but when. Clinton leaves a vacuum and Obama pulls no stay behind forces. That changing now, but would of been under control to some extent.


Obama / Clinton could not reach A status of Forces agreement with Iraq. Or even force our hand to maintain peace.


Its almost he new this was going to happen. what ever we have poor leadership and statesman my a--.
Clinton did a policy this morning after the "horse left the gate"


Consulted Generals and law enforcement. whatever Clinton continues to show her lack of foresight.

You're missing the bigger point. It's not if this person(s) was a refugee or not. obama and hil appear to be unable to grasp the most basic issues about this matter. Can't use the term "radical Islamist terrorism". Don't appear to understand what the fbi director stated in we can't possibly vet many of these refugees yet they have policies to let bunches of them in from countries that are major sponsors of terrorism. And doesn't this admin have better things to do than play word ban as ways to "solve" this problem of terrorism?
