Interesting Quote: Mayor Mike Rawlings


When Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings was asked about the Syrian refugees and the fear mongering from his GOP colleagues, he said:
“I am more fearful of large gatherings of white men that come into schools, theaters and shoot people up, but we don’t isolate young white men on this issue.”
And he's from Texas.

Interesting Quote: President Obama


These are the same folks often times who've suggested that they're so tough that, uh, just talking to Putin or staring down ISIL or using some additional rhetoric somehow's gonna solve the problems out there. But apparently they're scared of widows and orphans coming into the United States of America as part of our tradition of compassion. First they were worried about the press being too tough on 'em during debates; now they're worried about three-year-old orphans. That doesn't sound very tough to me.

About the Syrian Refugees...


It is shameful that 27 governors are being so disrespectful and un-american about the refugees. To go on record and say you won't let the refugees in is not what America's all about. By law, it's not the governors' call to make, however they can still make things difficult for their arrival.

And to think they consider themselves Christians.

Interesting Quote: President Obama


”If folks want to pop off and have opinions about what they think they would do, present a specific plan. If they think somehow their advisers are better than the Chairman of my Joint Chiefs of Staff and the folks who are actually on the ground, I want to meet them. And we can have that debate. But what I’m not interested in doing is posing or pursuing some notion of American leadership or America winning or whatever other slogans they come up with that has no relationship to what is actually going to work to protect the American people and to protect the people in the region who are getting killed and to protect our allies and people like France. I’m too busy for that.”
