Clinton: GOP’s ‘hateful rhetoric’ on Syrian refugees ‘a new low’

The speech, which comes in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks that took the lives of more than 130 people, will outline Clinton’s “strategy for defeating ISIS and eliminating the immediate threats it poses, as well as her plan for combating radical jihadism more broadly”, the campaign said in a statement.

Hillary Clinton on Tuesday strongly rebuked Republicans over calls to screen Syrian refugees coming into the USA based on religion, calling their “hateful rhetoric” a “new low”. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who has failed to capture support from the biggest and most powerful unions despite significant backing from smaller groups and within the rank and file. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said allowing Muslim refugees in the USA would be “lunacy”, while retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson said going forward with President Barack Obama’s plan to welcome 10,000 Syrians would require a “suspension of intellect”.

On refugees, Clinton is taking on a potential political liability in the aftermath of the attacks that killed more than 120 people in Paris and seeking to turn it to her advantage. The director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation says there is no way we can determine under the current vetting process, whether they’re terrorists or sympathizers.

Clinton said Tuesday that the Paris attacks remind American voters that they “not just electing a president, we’re also electing a commander-in-chief”.

Zinke said that the refugee program should be re-examined and there is insufficient information about the backgrounds of the individuals hoping to be accepted into the United States.

A Montana congressman said today that America should stop accepting Syrian refugees because it’s hard to tell if they are terrorists or have ties to terrorists. “Our nations can welcome refugees who are desperately seeking safety and ensure our own security”.

“We should focus our efforts as it relates to refugees on the Christians that are being slaughtered”, Bush said.
