Deviating from the cautious course being pursued by at least 27 state governors, California Governor Jerry Brown vowed to work closely with President Obama in resettling Syrian refugees entering the United States, reassuring Californians that the incoming asylum-seekers would be “fully vetted in a sophisticated and utterly reliable way.” This means that many of the 10,000 Syrians the Obama administration is planning to bring into the country within the next year may be settled throughout the Sunshine State.
Brown’s promise to cooperate with the Obama administration is interesting considering his past positions and remarks on a similar issue. During the 1970’s, when thousands of Vietnamese fled the communists taking over their country, Brown, then an up-and-coming liberal politician, expressed little sympathy towards them, reportedly stating that the federal government was going to “dump Vietnamese” onto the people of California.
An interesting choice of words on his part. One wonders how he and other liberals would react if someone said he was going to “dump Syrians” on California.

He is an idiot.
Let them live with you Jerry. You idiot.
Also a fool who needs to be removed from office.
Is he still moonbeaming with the gurus?
Sorry but California is quite solvent and has 3 billion in a rainy day fund. So we are doing quite well financially, thank you very much.
This guy is an idiot (or a muslim).
Time for Brown to go!!!
Well just look at how many illegal’s they let in. Hell they have towns in California that have all Mexican city council and you have to speak Spanish. Not to mention if you are illegal and make it to a sanctuary city you can stay !!
Notice, He said “FULLY VETTED”!!!
This guy makes stupid look genius.
