David K. Ford: Only a Democrat would suggest letting in more immigrants
As I sit reading The Bee and watching TV during the aftermath of the Paris terrorism – the usual blend of grief porn combined with the sad mourners and stories of survival – I hear a reporter say: ISIS has “allegedly” claimed responsibility for the attacks. I’m pretty sure if a group comes out and says it is responsible for such a horrific attack, then we’re pretty safe in saying they did it, no “allegedly” needed. The US government and media cabal has become so adept at being fair and not stepping on any groups’ toes that we have left ourselves wide open for the same thing to happen here in one of our cities; it’s just a matter of when.
The answer to that thought comes in the next article I read, about the Democratic debate. Obama wants 10,000 Syrian refugees to be allowed into the U.S., while two of the Democratic candidates – one being Hillary – want 65,000 let in “if they can be properly vetted.”
Apparently these potential “leaders” don’t realize how stupid that sounds. Who could vote for one of these idiots for president? This country is full up and its citizens are fed up with such nonsense.
David K. Ford, Manteca
