Showing Original Post only (View all)Good lord, check out this FB message from Alaska State Senator Pete Kelly... [View all]
We call him Pious Pete.
Please contact our governor and explain to him the need to take a strong stand against importing Syrians into Alaska. I will not call them refugees - they are not. Europe is under invasion and Paris is the first city to fall under full attack. We in the US are next and the Quisling who has opened wide our gates to the invading horde is our very own president.
Governor Walker: Obviously, we cannot rely on Obama to defend this country, but you governor, are the leader of this state. It has fallen to you to do the uncomfortable. Contact the president. Tell him it is unacceptable to transplant the invaders of Europe to our country.
No amount of romanticizing will turn these people into "huddled masses yearning to be free." They are the vanguard of sharia law and they are dangerous. In an interview you said you hadn't given the idea of standing against the transplant much thought. That's OK. Things are moving quickly and who would have thought a US president would put you in this position. But now you know. Get your bearings and make a stand.
There's something really unseemly and disturbing about his use of the word "quisling," - a traitor who collaborates with an enemy force occupying their country. He's obviously pretty upset with our governor who has said he won't oppose Syrian refugees coming to America.
The only upside is that he's being trounced in the comments.
