I think he did...don't have a link. And then he said that republicans were scared of the women and children....and then, the news reported that the suicide bomber was... a woman.

Since he never misses a chance to tell a lie he probably did. The latest bullshit being spread by the liberals on social media is that only 2% of the refugees are men.

I guess "Military Aged Males" didn't quite fit the shot he was making.
This policy is pretty much indefensible in light of the Paris attacks, but he's going to run with it.

Yes he did. The fact remains that the vast majority Of these refugees are men of military age. If this was truly about freedom of the Syrian people these men could be organized into a fighting force and could fight the current Syrian leadership and effect a Civil War.

i have 6 tours to the middle east and spent a lot of time with the locals in different regions. The men would more than likely take care of themselves before the women and children. My guess is the majority are men. You just can't trust a politician, this guys is up to something...and it is not good!!

He also said ISIS was a JV team. Am I being lied to like a dummy or are folks that unaware?

Hard to pay much attention to anything that the POTUS says because so little of it is true.
