Why didn't Obama do something about it, he had 8 years and he didn't need Congress, either.
Good. So you admit Trump is no better than a typical politician then?
Damned if he do, damned if he don't. The Media wants to protect their Banker-Silicon Oligarch interests. Saudi Investment, Weapons Sales, etc. more important that stopping violent Jihad worldwide.
Exactly. And Trump is trying to screw the media at every turn. So why did he exclude Saudi Arabia? It might have actually been prudent AND it would have screwed the media. Win-Win. So why did Trump exclude them??
Once again I'll tell you TLL, when you find yourself agreeing with Ironman you need to reassess your views.

Hey, what do you think of all the drone strikes that ended up hitting wedding parties with the suspect long gone from the area?
Is that more humane than a ban on refugees from war-torn areas where religious conflict and radicalization is a big part?

Because it was a bridge too far - for now - politically. He chose countries currently in massive domestic conflict involving radical religious beliefs, and a major state supporter of terrorism. Maybe when he speaks with his Sith Lord Master, he can get combined action to pressure Saudi Arabia and put them on the back foot.

bwahahahaha. Give me a break. He specifically excluded countries where he has business interests because he didn't want to jeopardize the only thing he really cares about---his own new worth.

Well, If Trump is banning immigration from countries that don't attack us as well as from those that do, I suppose you are saying he truly is an honest and fair man!

Extreme vetting for Pakistan, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia:
http://www.firstpost.com/world/not-visa-ban-extreme-vetting-for-pakistan-afghanistan-saudi-arabia-president-trump-3223890.html
While Obama (and certainly Hillary would have) maintained Visa Express. What country did the San Ber shooter come from?
He wanted to get something done without pushback, and Obama left him a poison pill authorizing mass Sunni Radical immigration from Syria he had to stop.
There are probably all kinds of other things like pending Lockheed-Martin Sales.
Psst: Politicans sometimes legitimately have to pick their fights.

It was an executive order. How could he not have gotten that done? And he's already getting a ton of pushback. So, care to try again?
What is the point of banning Muslims if you don't ban the ones that are most likely to be terrorists?
Great--can you detail exactly what measures are being taken? How it's different than what was being done already under normal vetting?
Well, If Trump is banning immigration from countries that don't attack us as well as from those that do,
You almost have it. He's banning from countries that don't attack us, but ISN'T banning from those countries that DO attack us.

I guess we'll see if Trump bows lower to the Saudi Royalty than Obama did.

Applicants will actually have to show up for an interview, and probably a background check, instead of just filling out a form and dialing in a Credit Card or sending a check.

The SJW left is more angry about temporary refugee bans and extreme vetting than they ever were about Paris, San Ber, or Orlando.
Also silent on the Haitan and Cuban policies that were just tightened:
Haitians beg Obama to stop deporting them

Or ending wet-foot, dry-foot, which allowed Cubans who reached US soil to stay.
Hey Tatty, when did they all become part or states of Saudi?
wtf are you talking about. Who said they are part of Saudi?

Except that's not how it works now.

They're probably angry about another President penalizing countries that didn't attack us, while doing nothing against the countries where the terrorists actually came from.

Yes,it's not how it's worked since later Bush and all of Obama's terms.
What the fuck is wrong with you?? Your mental illness is really getting bad.
Seriously. You can't even comprehend a simple question. You said the current group of terrorists isn't coming from Saudi. And I asked for why you think that and you respond saying that Syria isn't a part of Saudi Arabia? And you think I have a mental illness?
Just stop posting. Please.
If you would read the links you post, like in the OP article, you wouldn't ask such STUPID questions, but would already know the answer
OK great. Could you copy and paste the part of the OP article that you think backs up your claim?
Because.... well, because he's happy with anything Trump says or does.
Trump could sign an executive order to have TLL publicly ass raped by a gang of dildo wielding amazon's and it would be a good executive order to TLL because it is the will of trump. All hail trump.
Except that's not how it works now.
Yes,it's not how it's worked since later Bush and all of Obama's terms.
Go ahead, feel free to document what you believe is the process. Let us all know how it really works.

If you see Trump's executive order referred to as a "Muslim ban," you're viewing fake news

Ban all immigration until unemployment is below 1% with labor participation rate above 80%.
If you see Trump's executive order referred to as a "Muslim ban," you're viewing fake news
I guess Giuliani didn't get the message. He says Trump asked him how to do a Muslim ban but keep it legal.

Tatty doesn't understand, when you're bleeding, you need to take care of the injury site first, once the bleeding is controlled, then you can move on to other medi
Does a person bleed if they can't see or feel the blood?
From article:
Sources close to Trump tell Fox News he has plans to cut that by more than half to 50,000.
In an interview with CBN, Trump said persecuted Christians from Syria would get priority.
“They’ve been horribly treated. Do you know if you were a Christian in Syria it was impossible, at least very tough to get into the United States? If you were a Muslim you could come in, but if you were a Christian, it was almost impossible and the reason that was so unfair, everybody was persecuted in all fairness, but they were chopping off the heads of everybody but more so the Christians. And I thought it was very, very unfair. So we are going to help them.â€
------
How many christians are in Saudi Arabia that haven't been forcibly converted or killed? How about Pakistan?
Why has it been so easy for Syrian muslims to come to US and not Syrian/Egyptian Christians....the latter is at more risk for violence.
Sounds like trump wants to reduce obama quota of 110k to 50k and give Christian refugees preference over muslims.
Why has it been so easy for Syrian muslims to come to US and not Syrian/Egyptian Christians
First off-it hasn't been easy for Syrian Muslims to come to the US. Second--do you have any evidence that it has been more difficult for Syrian/Egyptian Christians to get to the US than it has been for Syrian/Egyptian Muslims?
Of the 15,479 Syrian refugees admitted by the end of Thursday:
--15,302 (98.8 percent) are Muslims – 15,134 Sunnis, 29 Shi’a, and 139 other Muslims
--125 (0.8 percent) are Christians – 32 Catholics, 32 Orthodox, five Protestants, four Jehovah’s Witnesses, and 52 refugees described only as “Christian†in State Department Refugee Processing Center data.
That doesn't show anything. How many Christians are trying to get out of Syria but can't because the US is making it difficult.
I'm outraged that he's banning refugees from countries that haven't had any terror attacks on the US and not banning those countries that did.
And he's doing so to protect his business interests. So obviously his business is more important than American citizens safety.

I think it's about time the military industrial complex was completely honest about their intentions. Before they were just pretending not to like Middle Easterner's by droning the shit out of their countries, then letting them resettle in the US. At least their current fish-in-a-barrel approach is more honest.
Second--do you have any evidence that it has been more difficult for Syrian/Egyptian Christians to get to the US than it has been for Syrian/Egyptian Muslims?
http://www.newsweek.com/us-bars-christian-not-muslim-refugees-syria-497494
But the numbers tell a different story: The United States has accepted 10,801 Syrian refugees, of whom 56 are Christian. Not 56 percent; 56 total, out of 10,801. That is to say, one-half of 1 percent.
The BBC says that 10 percent of all Syrians are Christian, which would mean 2.2 million Christians. It is quite obvious, and President Barack Obama and Secretary John Kerry have acknowledged it, that Middle Eastern Christians are an especially persecuted group.
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-22270455
Here’s the Fox excerpt:
Experts say another reason for the lack of Christians in the makeup of the refugees is the makeup of the camps. Christians in the main United Nations refugee camp in Jordan are subject to persecution, they say, and so flee the camps, meaning they are not included in the refugees referred to the U.S. by the U.N.
That doesn't show anything. How many Christians are trying to get out of Syria but can't because the US is making it difficult.
Moving goalposts, wtf? How about the UN camps where refugees are picked up from lack a christian contingent because they are persecuted in that environment. I guess if the UN can't protect them, that is also the United States fault?
From article:
But when you have been running a refugee program for years, and you have accepted 10,612 Sunni refugees and 56 Christians, and it is obvious why and obvious how to fix it, and nothing is done to fix it—well, the results speak more loudly than speeches, laws, intentions or excuses. In effect, we make it almost impossible for Christian refugees to get here.
So I’ll stick with that heading. And I agree with Shea: “This is de facto discrimination and a gross injustice.†Hats off to Cotton for seeing it for what it is and suggesting a viable solution. His bill would bring this shameful practice to an end and save the lives of many Syrian Christians.
http://www.newsweek.com/us-bars-christian-not-muslim-refugees-syria-497494
Bottom line: Muslims have it FAR EASIER(not even close) than christians from middle eastern countries....Whether US making difficult or not is issue; sad thing is, the only one who attempted to bring bill to table was a Republican Senator from Arkansas named Tom Cotton.
Christians from those countries shouldn't have to apply for refugee status through UN because it is unsafe for them to be in camps, but rather directly petition the US government.

The same thing happens in Germany: Muslim Translators deliberately lie and mislead to German Authorities when translating on behalf of Christians or recent Christian converted Refugees.
We also saw this on the Boats to Italy. Muslims threw the open Christians off.
This is part of "There's only so many people taken, and I'll make sure it's my brethren and not the Kuffars"

The population is 10% Christians, but only 0.8% are being admitted...
You figure it out.
Irrelevant unless you know 10% of the Syrian refugees seeking entrance to the US are Christian. Feel free to post up your source.

Notably absent from the executive order:
Saudi Arabia
Pakistan
Looks like Trump has been bought and paid for by the Saudis already.
