Rand Paul Introduces Legislation to Prevent Refugees From Countries With ‘Significant Jihadist Movement’ | TheBlaze.com
Rand Paul Introduces Legislation to Prevent Refugees From Countries With ‘Significant Jihadist Movement’ | TheBlaze.com:
“The time has come to stop terrorists from walking in our front door,” Paul said in a statement. “The Boston Marathon bombers were refugees, and numerous refugees from Iraq, including some living in my hometown, have attempted to commit terrorist attacks. The terrorist attacks in Paris underscore this concern that I have been working to address for the past several years. My bill will press ‘pause’ on new refugee entrants from high-risk countries until stringent new screening procedures are in place.”
In a call with reporters Monday, Paul announced that his legislation would be applicable to some 30 countries with a “significant jihadist movement.”
Obama calls this, "Not American."
Not American?
What do you call someone who is supposed to act like the President of the United States, but continuously does everything in his power to destroy our country? What do you call someone who is more concerned about the feelings of our enemies than protecting our borders and the American people?
Any individual who puts the enemy before the United States is NOT AMERICAN!

He would prefer not to
President Obama was visibly annoyed by the questions posed to him at his press conference in Turkey today. They lacked the deference to his majesty that he has grown accustomed to.
The Federalist has posted a striking lowlight here (video at link).
Quotable quote:
“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.”

It's not the most poorly timed NYT article ever, but this David Brooks article — "My $120,000 Vacation" — was published yesterday.
"Thanks to the Four Seasons’ new 24-day, round-the-world fantasy trip, you get all the indulgences of travel without any of its hassles. But like all fantasies, is this too much of a good thing?"
Ugh.
How embarrassing to find yourself — you, the moralizing columnist — asking that question on the day of the Paris attacks.
I'd be smacking David Brooks around anyway, even if this were not published on a day when you pretty well know that the editors must have wished they could recall this one and publish it some other time...:

They've been lying the entire time!-----Changing the Data to Get Climate Change
tChanging the Data to Get Climate Change - Breitbart:
"The science is clear.
For nearly two decades, the satellites that measure global temperature have shown no discernible increase.
This fact has been very inconvenient to the Obama administration that wants to promote an extreme climate change agenda at an international meeting next month in Paris.
More conveniently, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently published a study in the journal Science that made “adjustments” to global temperature data.
The study was conducted in order to refute the notion that there has been any pause in global warming.
The NOAA study claimed to use “new methods” of data collection that changed historical temperatures from both land and oceans.
This is beyond suspicious.
Just in time for this administration’s final carbon emission regulations and international climate negotiations, NOAA changed the way it has analyzed data for decades to get results that support the president’s agenda."

Interpol: allowing citizens to carry guns in public is most effective way to prevent terror attacks
Interpol: allowing citizens to carry guns in public is most effective way to prevent terror attacks | 10News.dk:
How long would the jihadis at Charlie Hebdo, Westgate, Mumbai – and many other terror attacks to come – be able to continue killing if they were surrounded by armed citizens?
Interpol states that the only way to stop such attacks is to allow citizens to carry arms (the only alternative to an armed citizenry is “extraordinary security” surrounding every area where many people meet – train stations, super markets, schools, etc. – which is of course completely unrealistic).
If guns are illegal, only violent criminals, fanatic jihadis and our over-worked, understaffed police will have them.
In case you are unsure whether it is a good idea that citizens legally own firearms: Switzerland has very liberal gun laws and one of the lowest percentages of homicide in the world. Interesting statistics on guns, homicides and firearm related accidents in the US here.
Interpol Secretary General Ronald Noble said today the U.S. and the rest of the democratic world is at a security crossroads in the wake of last month’s deadly al-Shabab attack at a shopping mall in Nairobi, Kenya – and suggested an answer could be in arming civilians.
....In the interview with ABC News, Noble was more blunt and directed his comments to his home country.
“Ask yourself: If that (Westgate terror attack) was Denver, Col., if that was Texas, would those guys have been able to spend hours, days, shooting people randomly?”
Noble said, referring to states with pro-gun traditions.
“What I’m saying is it makes police around the world question their views on gun control.
It makes citizens question their views on gun control.
You have to ask yourself, ‘Is an armed citizenry more necessary now than it was in the past with an evolving threat of terrorism?’
This is something that has to be discussed.'”

22 Times: Climate Change a Greater Threat than Terrorism
22 Times: Climate Change a Greater Threat than Terrorism
ISIS has taken responsibility for the horrifying attacks in Paris that have left more than 150 dead and hundreds wounded.
French President Francois Hollande is calling for the closure of his country’s borders.
President Barack Obama didn’t condemn Islamic radicals for the attacks, but he did call them “an outrageous attempt to terrorize innocent civilians” and “an attack on all of humanity and the universal values we share.”
...Below are 23 times Obama or his administration officials claimed climate change a greater threat than radical Islamic terrorism.
In a January 15, 2008 presidential campaign speech on Iraq and Afghanistan, Barack Obama said the “immediate danger” of oil-backed terrorism “is eclipsed only by the long-term threat from climate change, which will lead to devastating weather patterns, terrible storms, drought, and famine.
That means people competing for food and water in the next fifty years in the very places that have known horrific violence in the last fifty:
Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia.
Most disastrously, that could mean destructive storms on our shores, and the disappearance of our coastline.”
...During a September 28 (2015) address at the United Nations, President Obama said that ““We can roll back the pollution that we put in our skies,” adding that “No country can escape the ravages of climate change.”

"PARIS (AP) — France launched “massive” air strikes on the Islamic State group’s de-facto capital in Syria Sunday night, destroying a jihadi training camp and a munitions dump in the city of Raqqa, where Iraqi intelligence officials say the attacks on Paris were planned.
Twelve aircraft including 10 fighter jets dropped a total of 20 bombs in the biggest air strikes since France extended its bombing campaign against the extremist group to Syria in September, a Defense Ministry statement said. The jets launched from sites in Jordan and the Persian Gulf, in coordination with U.S. forces."

DNC Chair Freaks Out After Andrea Mitchell Actually Fact-Checks Hillary
On Friday, MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell actually fact-checked Hillary Clinton’s suspicious tale of trying to join the Marines in 1975:
“Those comments are being mocked by Republicans today and they’re getting two Pinocchios from Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler....Why on earth would she go to a Marine recruiter in 1975?...It doesn't make sense.”
Her guest, Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz was so taken aback that the Florida congresswoman attacked Mitchell for asking questions:
“With all due respect, Andrea, why on earth are we talking about this?”
Mitchell hit back: “Because she brought it up in New Hampshire the other day.
If she hadn't brought it up, it would not be an issue in this campaign.”
Schultz argued: “Andrea, Andrea, what the story illustrated was that we have made a lot of progress in America. Secretary Clinton is absolutely right.
I mean, back then, you did have a much tougher time for women to be able to make it successfully through the recruitment process and move up in the military and we’ve made tremendous progress since then.”
Mitchell replied:
I mean, with all due respect, I won't defer to anyone in terms of people who have done stories over the decades about the challenges of women in the military....So I don't think that's the point.
I think the point is just, did this happen? ..”
