    I know that feeling. Im still waiting to find out why obama did what he did the night he let four Americans die in benghazi.
    Btw, he got the list from the obama administration.

    Yep, eight businesses registered in Saudi, by Trump, during his campaign. Nothing remotely suspicious there...

    Those 'outliers' killed 3000 US and foreign nationals. But ignore that by all means.

    I am so glad Ronstar brought this up, because I remember “liberals” claiming Saudi Arabia was behind the attacks of 9/11, and not Afghanistan, and claiming Bush let them in the country, and repeatedly saying if Gore was president 9/11 would not have happened.

    My signature line in response to the “liberals” claiming Bush let them, and all the talk of better security at our ports…had a quote of the Koran and the following sentence:

    “[59.14] They will not fight against you in a body save in fortified towns or from behind walls; their fighting between them is severe, you may think them as one body, and their hearts are disunited; that is because they are a people who have no sense.”

    Yeah, a wall and a border patrol will protect us. {sound of laughter}

    From a 2002 topic called “Liberals!”:

    “I agree if we are attacked we should defend ourselves.

    But Afghanistan did NOT attack us. Plain simple facts seem to allude you.

    No specific country attacked us, but if you had to pick the one that was most involved, you would have to pick Saudi, not Afghanistan.....” (Jamie, “Liberals!” (Page 3))

    That kind of thing had me post this thousands of times:

    “The United States repeatedly warned Taliban officials that they would be held responsible for any terrorist attacks undertaken by Bin Ladin as long as he remained in Taliban-controlled territory.” http://www.state.gov/j/ct/rls/crt/2001/html/10237.htm

    The simple fact is the 1996 fatwa of war on behalf of Iraq was against the Saudi regime too:

    August, 1996: "More than 600,000 Iraqi children have died due to lack of food and medicine and as a result of the unjustifiable aggression (sanction) imposed on Iraq and its nation. The children of Iraq are our children. You, the USA, together with the Saudi regime are responsible for the shedding of the blood of these innocent children. Due to all of that, what ever treaty you have with our country is now null and void.
    The treaty of Hudaybiyyah was cancelled by the messenger of Allah (Allah's Blessings and Salutations may be on him) once Quraysh had assisted Bani Bakr against Khusa'ah, the allies of the prophet (Allah's Blessings and Salutations may be on him). The prophet (Allah's Blessings and Salutations may be on him) fought Quraysh and concurred Makka. He (Allah's Blessings and Salutations may be on him) considered the treaty with Bani Qainuqa' void because one of their Jews publicly hurt one Muslim woman, one single woman, at the market." (Declaration of War against the Americans Occupying the Land of the Two Holy Places.)

    It is silly to complain about Trump’s order, while complaining he did not add more names to the list.

    The “liberals” were against a War on Terror, the result was inability to identify the enemy ideology and separate out the religion of terror from those that simply are not much different than the Old Testament religion (Israel as government).

    I will repeat my old signature line:

    “[59.14] They will not fight against you in a body save in fortified towns or from behind walls; their fighting between them is severe, you may think them as one body, and their hearts are disunited; that is because they are a people who have no sense.”

    Yeah, a wall and a border patrol will protect us. {sound of laughter}

    Not quite, Trump simply used the restricted travel list the Obama administration had compiled. These countries all have one thing in common, they are essentially, in a state of collapse in which vetting is at best problematic.

    We went to war over that and killed hundreds thousands of civilians in the process, in case you forgot.

    Do you have a link showing that list that Obama wrote? Did Obama stop people coming over from those countries?

    Governor Brown is thinking of limiting travel from Tennessee into California also. We only want Country music stars and very good looking women from Tennessee and would like to limit the number of ignorant crackers who enter this state. They cause nothing but trouble...lol

    As someone who voted for him and generally supports PRESIDENT TRUMP, this is a completely fair and valid point. Suadi Arabia is not our friend and should be on the list as should Pakistan, UAE, Afghnistan, Jordan, Egypt, Oman, Turkey and Lebanon.

    Simple. As long as Schumer and crowd obstruct his nominees, particularly Secretary of State, he's not going to make major changes to policy. Improvement of vetting is not much different from banning visitors to those countries from the Visa Waiver Program.

    https://www.cbp.gov/travel/international-visitors/visa-waiver-program

    IMPORTANT NOTICE!

    Travelers in the following categories are no longer eligible to travel or be admitted to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP):

    Nationals of VWP countries who have traveled to or been present in Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Syria, Libya, Somalia and Yemen on or after March 1, 2011 (with limited exceptions for travel for diplomatic or military purposes in the service of a VWP country).
    Nationals of VWP countries who are also nationals of Iran, Iraq, Sudan, or Syria.

    They will always be most welcome here in California. We just want to keep all of the guys who are screaming at them to "shut up and get in the truck" out of here. Like a safe haven for all of those Tennessee Belles....In case you haven't noticed, we got some pretty good looking broads here too. Many of them have fled Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Alabama and other dangerous areas...

    I prefer to hear Trump's reasons as he is the sitting president.

    He took what he already had to hand from the previous administration or that's what he tweeted.

    Oh, but they should be.....

    This is how you can tell Trump is no different than our past Presidents. He's a billionaire with an interest in keeping the system the same.

    DHS and State Department knows (or at least, under the assumption) that terrorist are actively trying to enter the U.S. from one or all of the nations they banned recently.

    So, maybe you know something that they don't at this time. Who knows?
