Obama keeps rushing to put this nation at as much risk before he’s out.

Via Washington Times.

The State Department admitted 80 Syrian refugees on Tuesday and 225 on Monday, setting a new single-day record, as President Obama surges to try to meet his target of 10,000 approvals this year — sparking renewed fears among security experts who say corners are being cut to meet a political goal.

Officials insisted they’re moving faster because they’re getting better at screening, and say they’re still running all the traps on applicants.

But the new spike in numbers is stunning, with more people accepted on Monday alone than were approved in the entire months of January or February.

“The Obama administration is on full throttle to admit as many people as possible before the time clock runs out on them,” said Jessica Vaughan, policy studies director at the Center for Immigration Studies. “This is the classic scenario when political expediency trumps prudence, and someone slips through who shouldn’t have, and tragedy ensues.”

Powerless to stop the civil war in Syria, Mr. Obama has instead offered the U.S. as a safe haven for those fleeing the conflict, promising to accept 10,000 refugees between Oct. 1 and Sept. 30. As of Tuesday evening, he’d approved 2,540 — an average of about 10 applications a day.

To meet the 10,000 goal, that pace will have to spike to nearly 60 approvals a day.

    And in related news on the culture front; Captain America is a Nazi.
    More specifically, the comic character is now shown to be a member of an evil org., Hydra, that was formerly a Nazi org. Don’t know why or what changed in going from Nazi org. to just evil org. Maybe the gear is better? Link below is to very recent interview on topic that is supposed to be a response positive interview to the story that broke a few days ago that the new comic would have the leader of Hydra, Red Skull, commenting favorably on border security and criticizing the European ‘migrants’. Eg, if you support borders, you are a Nazi. Interview provides that this new story line of Captain America being a former Nazi now just evil person was started soon after new writer Nick Spencer was hired at the end of 2014. Wikip. shows Mr. Spencer as having run for Cincy city council twice on the progressive charter party and follows politics closely. Wonder if he ever JeSuisCharli or has ever supported any cartoonist drawing Mohammed. Comic bravery and all.
