[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone else read this? I don't think this is fair for us to be able to come up with money to pay $64,000 per refugee to relocate them to the US when we have so many homeless families and Vets here already and so many poor people here already struggling to eat. Does anyone else agree with this?

What makes absolutely no sense to me is to do this while at the same time breaking families who have been peacefully among us for years, especially when deporting the parents of American children.

President Obama has been a huge disappointment to many of us, and his anti-Latino policies will be remembered [/quote]This! Obama is a joke and we're tired of his snake oil. He wants to promise everything to everybody and hope we're all stupid enough to believe him. You have hardworking Latino families here, poor African Americans here, homeless veterans here. Let's take care of them before we entertain Obama's impossible, and, quite frankly, cruel, promises. Shame on him.[/quote]

Dude, simmer the fuck down.  We've only brought a handful of Syrians into the country in the last 3 years.  Not even 200.  It's not as though program funding for everything else is running dry as a result.[/quote]

Wrong again. According to NYT it is 1800 - not to mention the thousands of refugees not from Syria that the administration has brought in.

Thank you for providing the true numbers. Someone else is a liar.[/quote]

According to the official STATE DEPARTMENT data, it was only around 200 since 2012.[/quote]

Incorrect accordingly to the Department of Health and Human Services website. We took in 60,000 refugees in 2013 alone - with 19,000 being from Iraq.

Thank you for this data. What exactly happens to these people? Who determines where they go?[/quote]

You are welcome and I miswrote - it came from Department of Homeland Security website.[/quote]

The PP you seem hell bent on correcting (incorrectly) claimed that only about 200 SYRIAN refugees had been admitted since 2012 (not refugees total). In '2013 alone' we admitted 36 Syrian refugees. [/quote]
