Before our brave governor admits all these refugees into Connecticut, maybe he should use the money set aside for this to help 1,600 unfunded pensions. Or maybe help 400 families on welfare, or even help 1,600 people on fixed incomes, that can't handle utility rate increases. His charity seems so out of whack to me.

While other governors have put the brakes on the flood of unvetted refugees arriving here, Governor Dan wants to shine in limelight. So when the rise of rapes, assaults and other crimes associated with immigrants from Muslim countries happens, will the people of Connecticut get to tell him, "I told you so?" Or will we be told to stop being paranoid?
