Ted Cruz CALLS FOR END to Syrian refugee resettlement to America after #Paris TERROR ATTACK

Ted Cruz got down to brass tacks about what to do after the heinous Paris terror attack today.

Here’s his entire statement [emphasis added]:

    “America must stand with our allies against the scourge of radical Islamic terrorism. This is an evil that does not discriminate between French, German or American, Christian, Muslim or Jew, soldier, football player, or concert goer. Their only goal is to murder those who do not submit to their vicious, totalitarian ideology. Our deepest condolences go out to our French allies, and I know the government of the United States stands by to offer any assistance necessary.

    “We must now face the facts. Between the downing of the Russian jet over Egypt and this massive coordinated attack on Paris, we are seeing an unmistakable escalation of ISIS’ ambitions and the scale of their terrorist attacks outside Syria and Iraq. Even as chaos rages in Paris, we need to take immediate, commonsense steps to preserve our own safety. We need to consult closely with our NATO allies who may be targeted for additional attacks. We need to immediately declare a halt to any plans to bring refugees that may have been infiltrated by ISIS to the United States. We need to redouble our efforts to prevent ISIS agents from penetrating our nation by other means.

    “Such steps, however, are defensive reactions to an enemy that will continue to try to attack us until they succeed once again. We must immediately recognize that our enemy is not ‘violent extremism.’ It is the radical Islamism that has declared jihad against the west. It will not be appeased by outreach or declarations of tolerance. It will not be deterred by targeted airstrikes with zero tolerance for civilian casualties, when the terrorists have such utter disregard for innocent life. We must make it crystal clear that affiliation with ISIS and related terrorist groups brings with it the undying enmity of America—that it is, in effect, signing your own death warrant.”

Many conservatives had already been calling this before the attack, now I imagine that there are a lot more who agree…

Meanwhile, over at the White House Obama is still trying to figure out just who did the deed!! Moron.

Below is a petition to Congress to sign to stop refugee migration if you are so inclined to do so.  Also, I would encourage you to call your senators and representatives.

IMO, Cruz is hands down the best candidate for President in this race.

[libertybele]

Cruz is the only candidate that has stood up for "We the People" time and time again. I seriously can't imagine anyone else in the White House that is going to change things and reverse our course of destruction other than Cruz.

Cruz 2016.  Reigniting the Promise of  America!!

Meanwhile, a Syrian passport has been retrieved from one of the suicide bombers who blew himself up outside the Stade de France stadium last night, according to two French police officers.

do we need any more of an argument to stop importing trouble into this Country from Syria?

Quite frankly I would love to see a Cruz/Lee ticket.

Leaving our borders open and allowing illegals to stay in this country is ridiculous.  Allowing refugees into this country is absolute lunacy!

   I was banned from other forums as well because of my "supposed" pessimistic outlook.  I was ousted after I voiced my opinion that unless we impeached this president we would never see any change and things would get worse.  I was told that things would change after the mid terms and we had the majority in both Houses.  I expressed my feelings that having the majority still wouldn't make any difference as Congress was still full of RINO's; especially those in charge.  After that statement, I was banned forever!

Gee.  Here we sit...gay marriage is now law, he is appealing the rulings on his e.o. for amnesty to the Supreme Court, our borders are still open,  Obamacare is still a mess, Netanyahu and Israel are still disrespected, ISIS is stronger than ever, Putin is in the Middle East, Syrian refugees have invaded Europe by the thousands and last night there was a terrorist attack on Paris and our president is still rapidly pushing to allow the same invasion of refugees into our country...and might I add:  We have the majority and Congress is still doing absolutely NOTHING!

As far as promoting a conservative agenda, agree.  But they're doing something, alright.  In my opinion, the majority of R's in Congress are liberals who happen to have an R for their title.  Anything O wants, they're there to help.

On another forum, I had to back off when I stated I was a Trump supporter.  I was thinking, free speech, & you're going to be angry @ me for my opinions?  I am of the mind that if you discuss respectfully, its legit to state your opinion.

Last month, Trump said "Syrian refugees could be a Trojan horse" for ISIS".

In Texas, Trump & Cruz are tied @ 27%. Either one has the makings of a great President.

Ok, so you are a Trump supporter ... I have concerns about him ... and I'm not so sure that he won't turn around and run 3rd party.  Others will argue with me, but I do think he has brought a lot of good to the GOP.  He tends to be in "attack" mode a lot and I find it concerning that he tends to attack others in his party far more than Hillary or Bernie.

The issues of RINO's is a given and right now the establishment is clearly out of favor. Funny how people in forums tend to jump on one another for a difference of opinion ... I try to enlighten others as to why I feel the way I do about an issue and try to back it up with links and facts. You shouldn't have to back down with what you truly believe in.  As Cruz would call it -- being a courageous conservative.  Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I have found after awhile, sometimes it is better just to agree to disagree.  Debate a difference of opinion, but when it starts to get into an argument and things start to get ugly, I just say, I'm done and I refuse to engage the conversation further.

Look, with this issue, I don't really think it matters which candidate you prefer.  We are in serious trouble. We have a president who fully intends to continue bringing in Syrian refugees and refugees from various different countries.  We need to do all we can to stop him.  We cannot sit by and do nothing.  Call your governor, your senators, your representatives, your local sheriff and DEMAND no more refugees.  We have everything to lose if we don't.  As it was pointed out to me in another forum, the governor of Louisiana and the governor of Michigan have suspended bringing in any further refugees.  The states still have power.  Thankfully, there are more Republican governors than Democratic governors.

Syrians with stolen passports caught trying to enter US, police say

Police in Honduras caught five Syrians who were trying to make their way to the United States with stolen and doctored passports, a police spokesman in Tegucigalpa told Reuters Wednesday.

The Syrians had no apparent link to the attackers in Paris, police said. The stolen passports were reportedly Greek.

At least one suspect in Friday's massacre had reportedly entered Europe with a fake Syrian passport.

I am a Trump supporter with Cruz a close second. Both pretty much have the same platform. Some of Trump's statements are off the wall and I do agree that he should tone it down when talking about other Repubs candidates. Be that as it may, I believe he will attempt to do things that RINO's and conservatives say that can not be done. Without trying, you can not do anything. I do not trust any politician because they change their tune when they get in office. If Trump is elected, I do not believe he would do that.

Unfortunately, the President has the say so on how many refugees he can allow into the US. The S.C. could override him but not the governors who have zero authority in this matter according to the judge that appears on Fox regularly.
