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.
See how others reacted to Brown’s announcement on the next page:
Not vetted!
Tony Montana was vetted .
In a land where even the women have penises, this makes perfect sense…
It would be better to setlle Jerry Brown in Syria.
Take all of them Jerry.
he should be forced to keep them in California and be held responsible for everyone of them–no help from the government. if he is allowed to bring them in—any governor who promotes this should fall under the same guidelines.
It’s too late, BALDY ! They are already here. a-hole, jerk-wad.
How can anyone say that these refugees are going to be fully vetted when they have no records, this is impossible to do under these circumstances.
Idiot
Sounds just as incompetent as my CT Gov. Malloy. He stated the same nonsense. Besides the fact that DHS, FBI, CIA, etc… have stated there is no way to vet all these “refugees” and that at a minimum 2% will be ISIS or terrorists of some form. But how do you “fully Vet” a refugee that has no official ID, government papers, passport or even have their fingerprints in the system. The answer is you cant and they want to “trust” their words they are peaceful refugees as “fully vetting” at the possible deadly detriment to the American people
