Would it be wrong to hang around polling places in democrat areas wearing a Hazmat costume on election day?

The Oministration just sees the "ebola problem" as a political issue with a political solution, which means they just have to weigh their political options, churn it through the bureaucracy, develop a solution, draft legislation, enact laws and regulations, develop some talking points, make some speeches, and *boom* the problem will be solved.

By the time they realize that their speechifying and political calculating isn't doing anything to stop the spread of ebola, it will be too late.

Better get your hazmat suit while you can, if it isn’t too late already. It is the #1 trick-or-treat costume for 2014.

We can see how he’s f’d up everything else he’s touched. This will be no different.

These stories to me all miss the point. His actions are deliberate yet directed by others. He is simply the unassailable public face mouthpiece.

I would point this out....the 1917 flu epidemic in the US...got virtually ‘no comment’ from President Wilson, and drew almost no federal response whatsoever. You can look via newspapers and historical reports....but the executive office just gazed and watched the whole thing develop. You can label the Wilson presidency as mostly a failure, with the exception of WW I actions. If WW I had not occurred, it’d be a pretty dismal record.

I see the same score here with the President and current team. How to milk this for political gain just won’t work. They’d need a whole new team around the President, to realize the implications here and do the right things.

Better to get right with whatever deity you believe in and spend time with your families. Not that a hazmat sute, a real one is a bad idea.

But it’s gonna be a real ugly place for a long time for the survivors.

in all 6 years in office Obama has never done ANYTHING competently. Why would he start now?

From the article:

Obama hasn’t had a major error like Katrina or the War in Iraq.

Bush did everything right before and after Katrina, but the lame-stream media just keeps blaming him for the Louisiana Democrats' failures. He also WON the war in Iraq.

By contrast, Obola has (purposely?) screwed up the Ebola crisis so badly it has even given him a new name. Oh, and he also LOST the war in Iraq, as well as the "more important" (to Obola) Afghan war.

Only a knee-pad wearing clown could make the statement that Obola hasn't had a error "like Bush."

Obama’s lack of competency is a small item compared to his anti-Americanism and complete lack of patriotism.

He is an enemy agent for whoever the enemy of the day may be.

He is determined to place the interests of almost everyone else in the world ahead of the interests of Americans.

What you said is true. And he is instructed, at some point of each crisis, to do the bare minimum needed in an attempt to save face, so that the Kool-Aid drinkers can talk it up to the MSM about the fact that he’s trying to solve things, but not for the GOP and budget cuts, it would all be under control.

Misusing the power of the US govt, Obama’s brought the Middle Ages into the 21st century.
It has been verified that our southern/Mexican border has been violated by invaders from 144 antediluvian, disease-ridden countries-—all of whom gather in Mexico b/c they know Obama is rubber-stamping them in——no questions asked.

Carriers of TB, Ebola, Chikungunya, Dengue fever, Norovirus. Hantavirus, Swine flu, Varicella. Variola, E-coli.......and carriers of childhood diseases America stamped out years ago.......are all here in our communitities, in our schools, in our stores and restaurants....handling our food and merchandise

The Obama admin has kept top-secret:

<><> medical/contagion conditions of minors transported to US schools....

<><> contagion status of contaminated Border-holding facilities;

<><> contagion status of contaminated public transportation used to relocate minors.......

<><> dangers to Americans from contaminated illegals in the marketplace, handling our food, merchandise...

<><> monetary costs to American taxpayers, forced to subsidize these diseased-ridden parasites.

I read an article yesterday that said if we get a few people in different parts of the country who get Ebola and they don’t know where they got it from, then that will be a sign that we will never get rid of it. It will be here to stay and it will completely change the entire country. People will be paranoid as hell to go out in public, there will be de-contamination stations all over the place like metal detectors, and we’ll be living in a world where at any time you can die within a few weeks. In other words the REAL result of Obamas “fundamental transformation”. If that happens I wonder if people would STILL be stupid enough to vote Democrat.
