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’s a bird brain
Governor Moonbeam has spoken.
ohh thanks again for screwing those you keep screwing to keep this state going. Still ponder and wonder how the hell you got back in office after being booted out by Californians
You can’t “Vet” Syrian Refugee’s because there are no Syrian records to “Vet”. .
Hope CA. bridges, airplanes and buildings are safe.
Jerry Brown and his gang dont care about the law…he probably has a pen and phone (like Obama) and so he will do whatever HE thinks he should…could care less about legality OR the state of California….he’s already taken down the State…so what does he have to lose, eh? he is unfriggenbelievable…..
Traitor…
Good luck with that traitor!
People can say whatever they want to… But my question is this… Are the liberals still going to blame bush when Isis blows us to bits. Over our governments ineptitude on handling them and keeping America safe?
California is safe then. Key words…”FULLY VETTED”. Since there is no way to vette these Syrians without a database of information on them, there is no “FULLY VETTED” Syrians.
