George W. Bush urges Biden to "cut the red tape" for Afghan refugees
NY Post, Aug 17, 2021

Former President George W. Bush on Monday urged President Joe Biden to “cut the red tape” and allow for the swift evacuation of Afghan refugees following the Taliban’s takeover of the country.

Responding to the fall of Afghanistan’s US-backed government, Bush said the Afghans “at the greatest risk are the same ones who have been on the forefront of progress inside their nation.”

Bush, in his Monday statement, noted Biden has promised to evacuate the Afghans who assisted Americans and its NATO allies over the past two decades.

“The United States government has the legal authority to cut the red tape for refugees during urgent humanitarian crises. And we have the responsibility and the resources to secure safe passage for them now, without bureaucratic delay,” he said in his statement.

George W. Bush got it right.  Our mission is to prevent another 9/11.  Biden's actions almost guarantee it.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Red tape, as in background checks, medical screening, that sort of thing.  We need to make this our problem if we still can.

Shortbus Joe is way ahead of you, George.  He's prioritized Afghanis over US Citizens in the "evacuation."
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

Well that "urging" is 2 or 4 weeks late. That water is so far under and past the bridge that it's in next week's rain cloud.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Agreed ... Boy George needs to keep his disasters in his own court and not pave the way for anymore!

There is absolutely no vetting of these alleged refugees. Take them to one of the crapistan nations, where at least they share a culture and  religion. They should not be brought to the US.

India would be a good candidate. They share a hatred for Pakistan.  And plenty of Hindus to keep them in check.

Any place but here....for the love of country, close our borders and put a moratorium on immigration and refugees!
