Is it time for the Obama Administration to start bailing??? Or should they all just jump-ship, and start doggie-paddling???
The President's plan to allow for the immigration of 10,000 mostly Syrian refugees is meeting more resistance than just my previous post, of yesterday. For the very same reasons that I tried to articulate yesterday, some 26 State Governors have stated that they will refuse to allow these refugees to be settled in their states. Yes, this was mostly along party lines, but there was at least one Democratic Governor among them. Could this be an amazing beginning to a Democratic mutiny of President Obama's absurd concept of "humanitarianism"? Was it a quote from "Poor Richard's Almanac" that went something like, "[humanitarianism] begins at home"??? Mr. President, you do not place the entire American population at risk, just to help some refugees, who most likely agree with the murderous rampage they are fleeing, they just don't want to get caught in the cross-fire. He says, "That's not what we're about." Well, speak for yourself, Barak, because you sure as **** don't speak for me!!!
I recognize that this Gubernatorial rebellion is mostly symbolic, because all these refugees would need is one state that is willing to allow them to be temporarily placed in their borders, and then Obama could be counted on to issue "Executive Orders" to send smaller groups of them to various locations around the country, probably without even notifying their Governors, let alone asking their permission. I would expect something this under-handed from a guy like him! But it is interesting to watch, to see if other Democratic Governors will join the mutiny; could there actually be bipartisan support in Congress for a law forbidding the President from doing this??? And, could there be enough Democrats to override the President's certain veto? How about a Supreme Court challenge to the certain "Executive Order" that would follow? Boy, things just might get interesting in old D.C. if all this came to pass. A Democratic Party mutiny of one of Obama's policies would be a fitting rebuke for the "Obama Legacy" that Joe Biden is so concerned about protecting, once he's gone!!!
