Mitt's dad and parents received US govt refugee funds
Posted: Sep 19, 2012
My refugee husband, who is now a small business owner and hefty taxpayer, also took advantage of this program in the early 80s while migrating from Iran (to escape imminent persecution for anti-regime political activities) via Germany, then Iowa, under the resettlement program. He was on the dole for hostel housing, food, medical care and pocket money for around 16 months (9 months in Germany, and another 7 months in Iowa) while the bureacratic red tape ran its course and he became established in a host-family residence, a part-time job and school enrollment for ESL and jobs skills). Within 6 months of his arrival, he had acquired enough English to land a job, then took it from there. The program, compassion, voluntary involvement and financial sjupport of his host family saved his life.
Jon Stewart pointed out that that part of his family history must mean Mitt could never get his own dad's vote, nor could he convince him to ever take personal responsibility for himself to become a productive contributor, relegating him to the moocher heap. LOL.

[ In Reply To ..]Your husband is a great example of the American Dream. He worked hard to achieve his goals. The moocher heap, as you worded it, contains the people who make living off of welfare a lifestyle choice and would rather be a slacker on the govt. dole than bother to get an education and a job.
Do you have figures on these great masses of moochers - perchance?
[ In Reply To ..]Do they come from the same sources as the zombie voter-fraud "emergency" stats come from?
That's a good moniker for liberals. Can I use it? - Masses of Moochers. -
[ In Reply To ..]nm
There are NO masses of moochers. They're talking - bout US, as usual turning us on ourselves.NM

A resettlement program - requires the person to work.
[ In Reply To ..]Your husband was on the "dole" for, what did you say, approx. 2 years? Nothing wrong with that, because he is not STILL on govt. assistance (correct?). Obama gutted welfare reform and now you don't have to work to receive our money. Go figure.
Ahem...take the word "to" out of the subject line. Then it makes sense. ;-) - backwards typist
[ In Reply To ..]I don't think our gov't pays refugee funds to people who flee to Mexico. If so, maybe I'll take them up on it. LOL

Trump Is Baiting The Liberal MSM And Refugee Protesters ByJan 29, 2017
I don’t think it’s accidental. The limiting Visa program was President Obama’s action, not President Trump. If you review the actual text of the executive order (copied below in full) what you will immediately notice is the order doesn’t specify ANY countries to be included in the Visa suspension (Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen). President Trump is not suspending visas from countries his team selected, they are simply suspending visa approval from countries Pre ...

This may have some relation to his former work for Catholic charities ...

Instead, Trump had found a way to give away somebody else’s money and claim the credit for himself. Trump had earlier gone to a charity in New Jersey — the Charles Evans Foun ...
Obama Stimulus Funds Went To California Feb 20, 2017
The 2009 stimulus package funded millions of dollars for safety improvements for a dam in California that was in “good shape,” but not to the Oroville Dam that is now on the verge of a spillway crisis. Nearly 200,000 residents north of Sacramento were ordered to evacuate after fears that erosion would cause the emergency spillway to fail, which would lead to “catastrophic flooding“ from a 30-foot wall of water. Despite more than a decade of warnings about Oroville, there is no publ ...
