I can’t find anything on the net to refute the claims made in this provocative video, so if they are true, then I think you better take a look and then start asking questions of your Congressional Representative. This is scary stuff:
“Very few details are known about Obama’s highly secretive plan to allow thousands of refugees into select cities across the United States. Last week, after South Carolina congressman Trey Gowdy found out about the program which plans to resettle the refugees into the U.S. he took action, sending Secretary of State John Kerry a letter demanding answers.
Gowdy’s concerns include reports stating that many of the refugees will be coming from countries like Syria and may have ties to terrorist groups. Though Gowdy may be the first member of congress to raise concern to the issue, he is not the only one in the country that believes this move is playing Russian Roulette.
Ann Corcoran of the Refugee Resettlement Watch blog who began attempting to expose the lack of oversight and mistruths of the program eight years ago states that Gowdy is the first member of congress to actually question the secretive program.”
“I can’t find anything on the net to refute the claims made in this provocative video, so if they are true, then I think you better take a look and then start asking questions of your Congressional Representative. This is scary stuff”
Should this really be how it works? We’re supposed to just get scared because a conspiracy-minded website makes some unsubstantiated accusations, and assume that’s newsworthy until otherwise proven wrong?
Liberty News is one of the sites pushing the ridiculous “Wal-Mart and the military are building secret tunnels in Texas to implement martial law” story, which has been mocked by sane conservatives:
http://libertynews.com/2015/05/chuck-norris-writes-powerful-op-ed-on-jade-helm-reminds-americans-security-without-liberty-is-called-prison/
And when I Google “Refugee Resettlement Watch,” one of the first results is a favorable article from VDARE, the notorious white supremacist website. Eek. Why take these claims seriously without further evidence?
Just business as usual folks, nothing to see.. move along.
Politicians fighting between themselves(as usual)creating unsubstantiated speculation of information which is reported by the media.
The side seeking answers ramps it up to stir their base of supporters into asking questions and the other side poo poo’s everything summarily to protect their political butts, avoiding questions, all the while trying to discredit the opposition, with releases like this;
“By the way, the average American (or dumb Member of Congress, or dumb Republican Party leader) is going to hear the Obama propaganda about “integration” and think that sounds just peachy”.
What a country, huh. and we pay(not a typo)along
With Liberal use of verbal difference they apply to support their resettlement plan;
integration, integrating, desegregation (the action of incorporating a racial or religious group into a community)
assimilation (the state of being assimilated; people of different backgrounds come to see themselves as part of a larger national family)
Well when I google Refugee Resettlement, I get a less favorable article than the other VDARE article that might be seen as a dismissal of Jacks post, who clearly stated he was unable to refute it, but only suggested you might want look for yourselves.
Well sit back folks ,and choose a flavor, because the bottom line is, your tax dollars are paying for the choice of the elected involved

If their coming to America, and they seem to be or organization such as
OOPS…continue;
If their coming to America, and they seem to be, organizations selected for help with relocation or Federal agencies working with Office of Refugee Resettlement’ (ORR)
They might be a source of information, if they will?

Off topic, but ya gotta see this. Fell off my chair laughing!

Just more Islamophobia and bigoted right wing cranks folks.
“Dearborn, Mich., is home to just under 100,000 people, about 40 percent of whom are Muslim. In 2013, a leaked government document revealed that more people from Dearborn were on the federal terrorist watch list than from any other city except New York. In March 2014, Dearborn resident Mohammed Hassan Hamdan was arrested at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport on his way to join Hezbollah in Syria.”

Re #1: How Chris does research. If he gets a Google hit on a “white supremacist” web site with one limited search his work is done.
And this goof calls 12-years-olds simpletons.
This WordPress nonsense is really quite annoying —
“Sorry, but you are commenting to fast” and
“You are posting comments too quickly. Slow down.”
Pie, apparently the band width is the problem. There are certain times of the day when we can get right to our posts, like 3 a.m.- 4 a.m., the rest of the time it SUCKS!!!!! I find myself waiting up to 3 minutes to post and about the same to log into the comments section so I can approve them. THIS SUCKS!!!! If this is the best this software can do then its a failed product. Feel free to complain to the Internet Editor at the ER.
Rush Limbaugh nails it.

Regarding Baltimore and Pamela Geller.
Up your Chris and all liberal apologists —

Well guys, just bookmark this moment. When it is all said and done comment on why you believe this stuff.
Then ask the question on why the extreme far right takes simple info and distorts it into conspiracies? Also ask how many times people will allow themselves to be lied to.
I’ll be back when the people of Texas are shackled and hidden in the tunnels of walmart in captivity.
We have real problems, and no administration in modern times is 100% free of contributing. They are already planning to take federal land and sell it to the billionaires foreign and domestic. We have a trade deal Obama is pushing with Republican support.
You know the same republicans that swore to block all PBO policies. That alone tells us something is wrong. TPP threatens American Jobs.
We have a presidential Candidate saying he wants to run the USA like a business when we are not employees of USA Inc to make billionaires profit.
Why not hop off the party bandwagons and address real issues instead of follow the propaganda.
Still have your gun? Still have your church and Bible? Thought they were suppose to be gone by now…
We are not a business or church, hate is not christian, money is not god and we all agree we want to take this country back from the modern fascism to which we are slipping into. “We the People, For the People” /Not we the slaves for the few.
Welcome to America.
ISIS puts hit on Pamela Geller:
“The attack by the Islamic State in America is only the beginning of our efforts to establish a wiliyah in the heart of our enemy. Our aim was the khanzeer Pamela Geller and to show her that we don’t care what land she hides in or what sky shields her; we will send all our Lions to achieve her slaughter.

Another source.
Pamela Geller now on ISIS hit list:
“Now, the Southern Poverty Law Center, which I have often taken to task for their hypocrisy, stated yesterday that Pam’s group is a “hate group.” Yet Pam has not threatened to kill anyone, not even the most barbaric members of ISIS.”
http://beforeitsnews.com/opinion-conservative/2015/05/pamela-geller-now-on-isis-hit-list-3005496.html
FBI, DHS Didn’t Contact Pamela Geller After Texas Attack:
“They have not contacted me,” Geller said about the FBI. “But of course we’ve now increased my team. I have a team now, private security, and NYPD counterterror has been in touch with me.”
http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/Pamela-Geller-Draw-the-Prophet-ISIS-threat-FBI/2015/05/07/id/643160/#ixzz3ZUPvxYGc
“Now, the Southern Poverty Law Center, which I have often taken to task for their hypocrisy, stated yesterday that Pam’s group is a “hate group.” Yet Pam has not threatened to kill anyone, not even the most barbaric members of ISIS.”
Is this writer implying that no group should be labelled a hate group unless they threaten to kill someone? That seems like a fairly low bar.
The SPLC is very clear about why Gellar’s group is labelled as it is. Their standards are clear and fair.
Obviously, Gellar’s rights to be a bigot should be protected as strongly as anyone else’s rights. I hope she’s lying when she says the FBI and DHS haven’t contacted her; it wouldn’t be the first time.
ISIS, in addition to being pure evil, is a stupid self-sabotaging organization; her death would only make her a martyr. They of all people should know that.
And … the O-man has secret plans to invade Texas!
Y’all are STILL truly pathetic.
Toodles …
Mocking…insulting….hit and run tactic… nice to see you again Libby.
Indeed.
I learned a new simile today: “Like playing chess with a pigeon.”
The permutations are numerous, but I go with “idiots”.
Dear Libby, your proclivity for jocularity never ceases to amaze. Signed, A Pigeon
Chris and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Both are a bad joke.
If the SPLC says it, it must be true!
You finally made me laugh jack. LOL aka libby
Here Jack you can find all your true stories here faster

The more people that fall for the fundraising propaganda the better this election will turn out. People are so tired of it.
Truth can not be hidden. The clowns are in it for the money.
Jack: “Mocking…insulting….hit and run tactic… nice to see you again Libby”
Well, she has a point. You forwarded a baseless conspiracy theory from a birther website…again. Expecting people NOT to mock you when you do this is a bit unrealistic.
#20 Chris, you claim its baseless…? Where is it baseless? Because you say so? I think not. Do your fact checking before labeling this article baseless. Every point she made was vetted before publication in her book.
#21 There was nothing in this video that warranted Libby mocking, insulting and using her typical hit and run tactics. You may think so, but sensible people would think it is just petty and mean spirited….quite common of liberals.
Oh, there was plenty that warranted it, starting at around 2:20:
“Many are forming cities within cities. Perhaps you know one where you live, where mosques are being built to consolidate, train, and promote a growing American Muslim population and it’s Islamic supremacist doctrine called Sharia. This process of Muslim colonization…”
“If you don’t help counter the Hijra, we are, in my opinion, doomed…”
This is the basest and most naked fearmongering, and it deserved a less polite response than Libby gave. “Sensible people” are not persuaded by such blatant McCartyism.
Jack: “Every point she made was vetted before publication in her book.”
Vetted by whom, exactly? Specifics would be nice.
I seem to recall claims about Islamic “no go zones” and Sharia law being implemented in Western communities (both of which Corcoran clearly alludes to in the video) being very thoroughly vetted lately.
It…hasn’t exactly gone well for people like Corcoran.
Also loved this line
There is no reason on earth that we should have brought over…another 100,000 Iraqi Muslims to America.”
Uh, yeah, no reason at all! Unless, of course, you count the fact that we wrongly invaded their country based on false pretenses, thus making many of them refugees in the first place, as a reason…
She is a bigoted moron.
Chris, with your permission I would like to send you a transcript from the House foreign affairs subcommittee. It explains in typical State Dept. language about the Arab Spring, origins of conflict, sectarianism, etc. It’s very enlightening and it is the latest/best unbiased information available on the Iraq-Syria conflict. I’m pretty sure its been declassified, but don’t want to risk it by publishing it here. You can be the first kid on your block to know what few others know. Offer open to any of our readers.
As to your dismissive comment, “she’s a bigoted moron”. (sigh) There’s far more to her statement than bigotry, but sometimes I expect too much of you. You’re not quite ready to see the bigger picture, but one can always hope someday….
One word that may help Chris and other liberals who tend to dismiss or attack the messenger because they disagree with their politics: Prioritize!
Let me explain it with an example: If Dick Cheney ran to your (you lefties and you know who you are) bedside in the middle of the night, just as your room was starting to fill with smoke and said, “The house is on fire, get out now!” Would you ignore him because you disagreed with his politics? I’m sure some liberals would. OMG…it’s Dick Cheney!!! and then they would pull the blankets over their head. Don’t be that fatally stupid. Rather, be aware of your most immediate priorities and take whatever information from the messenger that is most useful, then worry about the rest later.
