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.

How’s that vetting process working with all the illegals? Yeah, thought so.
He is a disgrace to the people of California.
Governor Jerry Brown,
California WAS considered the Golden State in the 1950’s. Since then, Leftist Progressive ideologies that have permeated Sacramento have decimated our once great state.
You bankrupt California’s bread basket, the San Joaquin Valley, by promoting Global Warming and supporting the EPA’s draining of all our dams and reservoirs. I hear it looks like a third world country now.
You bankrupt us with your Rails to Nowhere.
You turn our state into a sanctuary state, protecting dangerous illegals.
Now you want to bankrupt us further by bringing in thousands of questionable refugees, whom Europe is currently discovering are at least 30% f**e. No doubt, you expect the US citizens to pick up the tab through welfare payments forever.
It’s about time you start to discover common sense. Stop ruling through your leftist progressive ideologies and make this state FREE and STRONG again!
Is that so much to ask???
It’s said that ISIS has found a way to use Play Station technology to hide their identities online? Don’t know how true that is, but if it is, God is pretty pissed with the United States.
