Thank You, Captain Obvious
Well, even a stopped clock is right twice daily. From our “good DHS Secretary”, Jeh Johnson:
“We do have to be concerned about the possibility that a terrorist organization may seek to exploit our refugee resettlement process,” he said Wednesday.
Johnson further went on to say that the group of fools and tools screwing things up by the numbers in DC current Administration “is continuing to reevaluate” screening associated with the US refugee resettlement program.
Gee, Mr. Secretary – ya think? Maybe seeing 14 killed and 20+ wounded by a terrorist who should have been refused admission to the US because of a grossly insufficient visa screening process gave him a clue.
Personally, I think Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois had the proper response: “I mean this respectfully to the secretary, but, duh.”
I agree, Rep. Kinzinger. Even Stevie Wonder could see there was a potential problem with refugee screening months ago. One has to wonder why those in current Administration couldn’t.
And speaking of screening those seeking to enter the US, here’s another bit or two of “oh so good” news. A senior official of the Department of State admitted when testifying before Congress the other day that it’s not just so-called “refugees” that pose a security problem. It seems that the State department has no idea of the whereabouts of literally thousands of persons admitted to the US whose visa was later revoked. Many of those visas were revoked due to later concerns that the individual had ties to terrorism.
Further, a senior DHS individual also confirmed in later testimony before the same Congressional committee that while pilot projects are have begun to test screening of visa applicants’ social media posts, “such checks aren’t being done in an abundant manner”. Let me provide a plain English translation of that bit of Bureaucrat-Speak: “We’re still trying to figure out how to do that.”
Yep. It sure sounds to me like the current Administration has this issue “completely under control.” No need to be concerned!

well if it makes anyone feel better it’s almost over in about 13 months 🙁
I wouldn’t be so sure. Things don’t always go the way think they should and a lot of people like freebies and BS promises.
Would this be an appropriate place to mention Paul Ryan?
It’s hard to beat Santa Claus.
I’m waiting to see Santa this year Lol…
But Wait! You Can See Santa Every Day! Mr. Obama Is Santa! Free Gifts! Made By Elves! Everything Your Heart Desires!
(well maybe it is everything that Santa’s heart desires and maybe he is charging the stuff on your credit card and maybe he steals your personal liberty to give you these gifts that keep on giving)
But Never Mind! It Will Be Wonderful, You’ll See!
(stop looking behind the curtain, person)
LMAO !!!!!!!
I don’t want a Obama phone !!!!
or welfare Lol…
I didn’t mean that Santa 🙂
…and our former Secretary of State made the brilliant comment that (paraphrasing) “We need to thoroughly investigate refugees from Iraq and Syria”. Well guess what, the recent female terrorist came from freakin’ PAKISTAN! So politically correct doesn’t work. You have to check them ALL and trust no one.
We don’t need to worry about ISIS/ISIL types coming in with Syrian refugees.
They’re already here.

Agreed, they’ve been here for years “SFC D”. They’re giving a new meaning to “sleeper cells” & are biding their time in the shadows awaiting another strike. I fear this last attack is only the tip of the iceburg. The entry screening into this country is a joke – and these temp visas need to be revoked ASAP or we’re all in trouble (but the current administration wants to focus on repealing our 2nd amendment right rather than focus on the obvious). I swear we’re all doomed.
As a US citizen with honorable military service, I get selected for extra screening at the airport; yet the government can’t find potential terrorists who have already entered the US.
And on a side note the government is considering using Ft Hood as a housing location for illegal immigrants children. I wonder how much that is going to cost the taxpayer and how the military units will be affected…..heavy sigh
‘may seek to exploit’ – No shit, Sherlock.
‘done in an abundant manner’ – functional illiteracy.
These bloviating blimps blatantly blow more baloney than anything Nixon ever said. They even make Jimmie Carter look vaguely intelligent.
Did you also know that you can jump out of a plane without a parachute? You can only do it once though.
