President Obama has once again demonstrated his blatant disregard for the Constitution.
Outraged that dozens of states are taking measures to keep undocumented Syrian refugees from being settled within their borders, Obama’s White House issued a statement warning them against turning away refugees lest they face the consequences of provoking his wrath.
The statement, taking the form of a two-page letter drawn up by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, argued that, “States may not deny [Office of Refugee Resettlement)-funded benefits and services to refugees based on a refugee’s country of origin or religious affiliation,” effectively barring state governments from taking steps to identify potential terrorists.
As if that weren’t enough, the Office’s statement further explained that if states did go through with such steps, it would take action against them, willing to go as far as suspending and terminating personnel involved in blocking refugees from being resettled.

we the people and Americans say that is a lie
He is not knowing about the constitution
Smell this Obama
He is a professor of nothing, just a remark to look smart
What more can I add than what was stated: “Asked for Commentary, Dr. Jake Baker, CEO TapWires.com said:
‘As usual when it comes to the U.S. Constitution, Obama and his minions know nothing, but what they make up, which has nothing to do with the Constitution. In fact, the states have both the power and the authority to stop refugee resettlement. Further, I believe they [the states] have an obligation to do so. Here is what the first paragraph of the Constitution says in the Preamble:
‘We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.’
How can anyone say that bringing known terrorists – individuals that cannot be screened – promote common defense and general welfare in the country? It does not. Therefore, it is patently unconstitutional from the start, which means the states have no obligation to go along with the illegal program of the President.
Then there is Article 1, Section 9: ‘No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.’
That phrase is the ‘out’ for the states. Bringing in known terrorists is a threat of invasion and there is no time for the courts to decide; therefore, the states must protect themselves from the maddness of Obama. Finally, since the First Amendment to the Constitution only bans the congress from making laws with respect to the establishment, that prohibition does not fall on the states. States have the right and, in this case, perhaps the obligation to ban both Sharia and Islam as a religious, military, terrorist and cultural threat to the people of the states. There is indeed more than one way to skin a muslim cat.’”
Mr president, it’s called aiding & abetting.
WHO taught you how to read, omaba? Wasn’t Dr. Seuss, or you’d get it right!!!
HAHAHAHA…..THAT’S FUNNY……maybe not
The hell we can’t. We don’t have to take any of the refugees/terrorists into our borders. Time to leave the Union, and it will be more states than during the War of Northern Aggression.
