You’d definitely be hard-pressed to find one. And we’re sure you’ll be shocked to know this particular argument was inspired by none other than the illustrious Amanda Marcotte:

Now, a sensible person looks at that and thinks, “Wow, that’s incredibly stupid.
Comedian Patton Oswalt is evidently not such a person:
ISIS: We hate Syrian refugees.
GOP: Us too!
ISIS: We want a "clash of civilizations.
GOP: Ditto! *hugs*

Get it? Because Republicans are basically ISIS! They’re not caring and awesome and open-armed like Amanda and Patton are.
@pattonoswalt @AmandaMarcotte u can't be fuckin serious. Have them all live in your gated community then.

@pattonoswalt @AmandaMarcotte So when is the first Syrian refugee moving into your homes? Own it…

@pattonoswalt @AmandaMarcotte So how many Syrian Refugees should we deliver you your house? ShelteredHollywooddickhead says what?

Odd … no answer! Could it be that Patton’s actually incapable of making a substantive argument to support his case and instead has to resort to likening Republicans to terrorists?
Yep. That’s pretty much what it is.
@pattonoswalt @AmandaMarcotte That is just ignorant. Admin cant screen effectively. People don't want to be killed by jihadists sneaking in.

@pattonoswalt ISIS: "Cut off his head." Oswalt: "Oh, you silly guys." ISIS: chop, chop Oswalt: "Republicans, for God's sake help me."

You should print this up and stick it next to your Coexist bumper sticker. Really highlight your tolerance! https://t.co/WarOtV1qyk

@pattonoswalt @AmandaMarcotte c'mon Patton you're smarter than this stupidly simplistic shit.

@pattonoswalt such a shame that a brilliant comedic mind like yours is also capable of such utter (and unfunny) stupidity
