(CNN) -- Vice President Joe Biden argued that the Ebola virus is on par with ISIS in Iraq and Syria when it comes to global security threats.

Did he explain it with ISIS figures that he made out of playdoh or with puppets?

Joe....You are vice president because Obama knew sh** about foreign affairs...and that still holds true.

Make it a teaching moment for him....close our borders to everyone from those ebola plagued countries.

But has Ebola driven off global “climate change” as the major threat in the world today? Or is the spread of Ebola a result of global “climate change”?

Talk about a toss up; what’s more disturbing, Joe Biden offering medical analysis or Joe Biden making foreign policy decisions?
