    You know I just don't get President Milk Toast. Does another attack have to happen here before he gets it?

    It's been confirmed that the Boston marathon bombers were refugees from Syria.

    At least two of the Paris animals were refugees or snuck in with them.

    Is he stupid to think the same thing can't be done here? " Oh we have a good system of checking them in". Bull!!!!!!!!!!!!

    In the 50's you could feel free and safe to pick up a hitchhiker along Route 66 and give them a ride from here to Chicago. Who would do that now?

    In the 60's we left our front doors unlocked, slept with our windows open and invited strangers who came to our church home for Sunday dinner. Who would do that now?

    Prior to 911, we never really looked at the other people on an airplane. (unless they smoked of course) We sat quietly, read the news and ignored the flight attendants emergency script. Who gets on a plane now and doesn't try to identify people who look questionable? Who doesn't pay attention to the emergency exits or look for a potential weapon?

    Times have changed Mr. President. Yew, we are a country of immigrants. Immigrants used to come here for the American dream and not to destroy it.

    I'm proud that our governor put up the "closed" sign today when it comes to these refugees. If Barak and Hillary love them so much, let them come to their homes and stay.
