There is evidence the Syrian passport found near the body of one of the Paris attackers is a fake.

Following Friday's deadly assault which left 129 people dead, French authorities found a Syrian passport near the body of one of the perpetrators.

That passport, with the name Ahmad Al Mohammad, was found beside the body of a man who blew himself up outside the stadium where a soccer match was taking place between France and Germany.

In the days since the attack multiple copies of that passport have turned up.

Islamic State has frequently said one of its goals is to stop refugees from fleeing Syria by any means possible, and tells refugees they are committing "a major dangerous sin" by attempting to flee the war and entering countries where they will be assimilated or integrated into "Christianity, atheism or liberalism."

3. This is a very important story.

CTV is a credible source. This story exposes the Republican governors and presidential candidates as xenophobic fear-mongers devoid of elementary caution or judgment when presented with an opportunity to pander to the most bigoted members of their base.

4. Republicans are dickless lunatic chickenhawks afraid of their own shadow

All bark, no bite, all hat, no cattle and pander their fear of people as policy.

8. I hate seeing you mince words so much.

I think you give today's GOP too much credit.

Recall last week's hot topic for the GOP. Red Starbucks cups.

9. Before I left the country, some woman wished me a Merry Christmas

After I let her go first in line out of kindness. Seemed odd to do that, but I just smiled and said I don't celebrate.

I was in my Yarmulke because it was Shabbat. You know, Jewish. . .she hissed at me that I was unAmerican and that I should go back to where I was from. I said "Queens?"

I am glad I left again. . .this time for good.

5. ISIS Took Advantage Of The 24-Hour News Cycle

All it took was a $50 fake Syrian passport for bait. Will there be backlash for the knee-jerk Republicans doing ISIS's calling? Not while we have a black man in the Whitehouse.
