Obama’s a Death Panel to His Base (The Rest of Us Will Be Collateral Damage)

Two weeks after proclaiming that it was “unlikely” for Ebola to arrive in the US, President Obama was proven wrong. No doubt, prior to his statement at the CDC, the President was briefed by “experts” who had arrived at the “unlikely” “consensus” – see how well “consensus” works in science? One would think that the “unlikely” arrival of the virus would have been sufficient to trigger alarm bells for people whose business should be to protect Americans. Banning all but military and medical aid flights to and from the affected countries would have been the responsible thing to do. But no. Some where on the globe, John F’ing Kerry, for example, is likely insisting that our greatest threat is not ISIS/ISIL or terrorism, in general, not the spread of a highly contagious virus but the more nebulous and misunderstood phenomenon known as “climate change.”

Climate change, they say, will wipe us all out in what, 10, 15, 20 years? I have lost track; but their primary solution is a tax. When faced with the very real threat, right now, of an epidemic of biblical proportions, what is the response? It is not to prevent it to the degree possible, it is simply to manage it; apparently the same plan that was conceived for dealing with ISIS. Perhaps a plan to implement an “Ebola tax” is in the works.

So, let’s take a page out of the climate “diaper” changers playbook and examine the scenario of what would happen if (and I say “if” and not “when” hoping that it never happens) the disease arrives in a large city, typically a nest of Democrat voters. Take New York, for example, it would likely enter with a host via JFK International, incubate in one of the boroughs (probably Brooklyn, Queens or the Bronx) and from there spread in rapid geometric progression via packed subways, buses, apartment and office buildings, schools, etc. The resulting chaos would be anything but manageable; overflowing hospitals staffed by only the most courageous, people with the infection mixed in with those who “think” they have it in waiting rooms and maybe FEMA officials in Hazmat suits leading others to some camp or oven some where. In this scenario, the people MOST likely to be immediately affected would be the poor and minorities – the typical Democrat party base and the charges of racism will once again be made by the very same people who right now preach that it’d be racist to ban flights from the affected countries. Incidentally, one has to wonder why airlines flying passengers from these countries – even indirectly, would expose their crew members (and the people who clean their planes) to possible contact with the Ebola virus; why have they, on their own, not stop these flights?

The very people then that Democrat party politicians claim to “help” and “fight” for would be, fatally so, at the mercy of the failure of their policies – the rest of us would be collaterally damaged, as always. The arrogance that pervades the political class of this country knows no bounds. Does anyone actually believe that the CDC and fedgov will contain the spread of Ebola if the scenario described above plays out? How did HIV, which is less contagious, spread? By its nature, governments are reactive and govern as Leon Panetta admits, “by crisis.” If nothing else, the potential crisis would prove, once and for all, that it is an utter and complete lie that the government is capable of managing anything. Let’s hope that it doesn’t take a catastrophe to make this happen.

Americans are walking meekly to their graves
with their children, to be murdered by preventable
viruses and terrorists, which the
EXEMPT in Congress and their clown Moslem Impostor
demand enter America, even as the EXEMPT destroy Law
and Truth and Justice and Freedom to enrich
themselves, their families and their EXEMPT Staff.
