The Donald Claims That Really President Obama Will Admit 200,00 Syrian Refugees

++Would that it were true but it's not--despite the Donald's "really,really credible sources." And only 2% of those are military age.

++Ben Carson just finished his trip to Jordan where he said the two camps he visited had "really nice" facilities. Carson got two things right: Jordan needs more funding for the camps; and the rest of the Arab states,namely Saudi Arabia must admit the refugees. So far the Gulf States and Saudi Arabia have admitted none.

++The strangest comments on this issue come from David Horowitz ,former editor of Ramparts,born-again conservative and father of a child who serves in the IDF. Horowitz says that the United States was right not to allow Jews in the country during the late 30s because Europe was at war--that's why they were refugees--and to do so posed a security risk to the United States. Horowitz is still Jewish even though his politics have gone right. I guess he didn't get the memo from the Holocaust Museum blasting such attitudes toward refugees.
