[See NewsBusters for more.] Good Morning America’s George Stephanopoulos on Wednesday badgered Chris Christie over his opposition to allowing Syrian refugees into the country. The co-host scolded Christie as “coming in for some criticism by one of your predecessors in New Jersey.” Highlighting moderate Republican governor Tom Kean, Stephanopoulos chided, “He says some of your rhetoric and your cracking down on refugees, Syrian refugees here in the United States is actually helping ISIS.”  Citing one Republican to attack another is an old tactic from journalists. The Republican presidential candidate shot back by noting that FBI director James Comey has admitted the United States can’t vet all the Syrian refugees.
