So I heard that america will be receiving 7000 iraq refugees...

[butterfly77]

Does anyone know why they will only be placed in the midwest and not in other parts of the country?

[enid602]

1. Here

They're sending them here so they can't bomb over there.

Seriously, though, I believe there's a large Arab and Iraqi population in Dtroit, so maybe that's why there slated for the midwest.

[butterfly77]

4. But, why is that the only place they place them ...

[rocktivity]

2. Funny, I thought we'd liberated them

Wasn't the original limit 500? Will they be deported once victory is achieved? Should they be considered the terrorist who Bush believes will follow the troops home? And are they being placed in the Midwest because there's less to blow up there?

:crazy:

6. They are already fighting there...

they are destroying each others properties, the Shia and the Sunnis...

[durtee librul]

14. AHA! So that's it!

They're putting them in Detroit because it's so rundown, they can't hurt anything if they decide to blow up stuff and will do the urban renewal the stupid city won't.....great idea!:sarcasm:

[damntexdem]

3. Sure, they're saving the East Coast for future Iranian refugees.

And they don't want to give anything to the West Coast. ;-)

[FrenchieCat]

5. Wonder how they will be "treated" at the airport?

mmmm.....

Once they get a taste of our democracy, they may run back home.

[tanyev]

7. Oops...freepers not too happy.

Just screen them meticulously before accepting their asylum.

will they be Shia or Sunni? Will we put the Shia in the north and the sunni in the west? Or north and south. After the Iraqi settle in do we have the hospital resources do deal with the maimings from the bombings? Isn't our healthcare strained enough? How will we ever deal with all the killings?

I say stick 'em in line behind the illegals, at least Jorge and Pablo showed some initiative and persistence, not being disuaded by laws and what not.

Screen them well, but it is the right thing to do.

I agree. But place them outside Ted Kennedy's Compound.

What if your community took in half of them, like that town in Ohio that ended up with 30,0000 Somalis who are now telling the original inhabitants how to live? I don't know why we have to take in every last loser and piece of human dreck from the entire world. I thought we were over there fighting so they would have a chance to live in a decent society on their native soil.

yes the media has done their magic. My perception is that Sunni and Shia religious nuts have been slugging it out since the 8th century. Of course they will forget all about it once they visit Disney World and Universal City Walk.

Horrible news. After the muslim shooting incident at Trolly Square in SLC, I don't look forward to more muslim hatred towards the citizens of our country. Bush is as disgusting as Clinton.

8. Michael Savage is having a meltdown now...

and he is discussing the bosnia muslim who went on the shooting spree in Salt Lake city...Now Savage finally realizes that we are living in a dictatorship via Bushit...

[blondeatlast]

9. I understand Weiner connecting the two, but why do you mention it?

Iraq and Bosnia have precious little to do with each other...

[butterfly77]

11. This is Savage's talking points...

he is saying that they are all Muslims and he is talking about what problems that they may cause...

[Disturbed]

10. How are the 7K chosen?

Is there a Lottery?

[butterfly77]

12. I heard Ed shultz say that this is only the beginning...

and that they will be more... I would like to know if there is a lottery to choose which part of the country that they will reside in...

[durtee librul]

15. Hmmmmm..may have something there...

QUOTE from previous post:

Screen them well, but it is the right thing to do.

"I agree. But place them outside Ted Kennedy's Compound." End of quote

I think they should live where ever Bush lives so he can see the misery of people...or they could send them to live in the shadows of the princely mansions in Saudi Arabia....or let them pitch on tent on the beach by Poppy * vacation home on the east coast...maybe Jeb has an empty FEMA trailer in FL......

Maybe Trent Lott has some room on that porch in MS for some...maybe Jeff Gannon can write a story about them....maybe Karl Rove can 'spin' their story to the world for them, maybe Rummy can tell them how to build a leaner army, Cheney can tell them how to steal legally from the US taxpayers...and last but not least, Condi can show them where to go shoe shopping (like they have the means to do that anyhow)

In other words, place them where they can be a constant reminder to the idiots who started this war in the first place causing them to be displaced.

I feel sorry for these folks having to reloacte in a strange country that robbed them of their livlihoods and homeland.

[The_Casual_Observer]

13. This is something else that condi didn't anticipate.

[Contrary1]

16. Oh No!!!!!

Do you think that any of these 7,000 refugees might have the middle name "Hussein"? :wow:

[jimshoes]

17. Better tell John Boner

They wont be following us home, we're shipping them in.

[Larry Allen]

18. Thats about one third of one percent of Iraqi refugees.

[butterfly77]

19. They should be place in some red states...

Republicons claim they care so much about them but I bet they don't want them anywhere near them...
