Title: A toxic [head of the executive branch]
http://nypost.com/2014/10/19/a-toxic-president/
I have 2 more years until I might be able to say I have a President.
Another idiot reporter gets it wrong, they want this virus to come in to the US, they want it to spread, they want it to kill tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands.
This will allow them to declare Marshal law, detain those who oppose the new socialist order.
Between declining to call the AIDS spade a spade, destroying the best military in the world, and now bringing in Ebola unresisted, our nation’s PC crapola is going to get us all killed.
Not to mention ruining the economy with a lot of Marxist claptrap.
It’s all not so bad for us Old Farts, but nasty for the kids just coming up and the folks trying to raise their families.
I believe the arrogance is really one of the core problems. It starts with an arrogance against God.
IIRC, in order for someone to import an animal (a pet) into England, it has to be quarantined for a number of months. I seem to recall Hawaii has the same kind of deal (could be mistaken).
My point is this: Okay, don’t BAN them altogether. REQUIRE them to submit themselves to a 30 quarantine (in a location where they can be monitored) and make them pay for it.
Freedmen said they would only come thru our porous borders at the hearings!
Let all the people who come from infected nations pass through Capital Hill and the White House before moving on to their final destination.
LITTLE GIRL: “DADDY THERE’S A POOR LITTLE DOGGIE AT THE FRONT DOOR AND HE’S GOT FOAMY STUFF ON HIS MOUTH, SHOULD I LET HIM IN?”
DADDY: “SURE LET HIM IN HONEY, HE’S PROBABLY JUST HUNGRY AND WE’LL GIVE HIM SOMETHING EAT”
Imagine if the 3 ‘hot zone’ countries were not Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, but rather Norway, Sweden, and Denmark ... any bets on how fast a travel ban would be imposed?
PC means that innocent people will be sacrificed on its altar.
Government you are either with America on this one, or you are for the foreign governments.
It is that simple.
Why are the so called experts at CDC, Homeland Security and TSA not stepping up and doing their job to protect Americans from passenger fly ins with Ebola or exposed to Ebola in countries raging with deadly Ebola, without banning or severely restricting air travel from Africa?
They don’t want to. Again, this is a prime example of the need to use Cui Bono, the old Latin phrase which asks the question, “Who benefits?”
So Cui Bono or who benefits with no real travel restrictions from Africa to the USA?:
1. The airlines, which fly people and freight from and to Africa.
2. The businesses which service the air lines and need their business.
3. The need of our left wing progressives to have another unending “war” like the war on poverty. A war on Ebola is the ultimate wet dream of liberals, who never let a good crisis go to waste.
#1 and #2 above are obvious to any of us with half a brain.
#3. Requires a little explanation. A War on Ebola will make the War on Poverty look like a very small wet puddle compared to a full scale and large flood like Noah’s.
A liberal/progressive War on Ebola will require us to hire millions of people with worthless degrees or psychiatric problems to fight this war. We will have shore to shore facilities to provide offices for these previously unhireables. They will require hundreds of thousands of supervisors to motivate and to monitor them and to waste money like VA hospital administrators do now.
Our worthless State Department will expand our embassies around the world to the size of the one in Baghdad to house and office the warriors of the War on Ebola.
Moosella and Jill Biden and the worthless Follywood idols will do thousands of PSAs telling us to spend our time and money supporting the War on Ebola.
They will start marches, marathons and other BS social circle jerks to raise money and to support the War on Ebola.
They will pour gallons of ice water or whatever on sports idols and Follywood idols to support the War on Ebola.
Our military will no longer fight Isis and bad guys, they will be included in the great War on Ebola. Barrack E Obolabama has started that process with our troops in and being sent to Western Africa to fight Ebola.
None of the above will save lives. Like the War on Poverty and other expensive liberal wastes, this fight Ebola cause will thrive without any real positive results. Each death from Ebola will result in more money and more worthless people involved in the War on Ebola.
Then, they will tie the War on Ebola with Global Warming to take away any rights we have left.
But choosing political correctness over public health – even choosing PC over health workers’ health – is asinine, ridiculous and even arrogant.

No, it makes perfect sense. It’s just that the left has a much different goal than the rest of us. They want to import disease and poverty and corruption in order to “fundamentally transform” our free society. Cloaking travel bans in terms such as “racism” just eases their efforts.
Apparently the GOP is too chicken to even chime in. Selling the idea of a travel ban or weeklong medical quarantine upon return is a no brainer. Just use the left playbook. And make customs certify via passport that there was no travel to infected areas. The commercial goes like this:
“The Obama administration doesn’t care and is putting your children at risk. They are profiting from free travel just to keep their special interests and billionaire donors happy. A travel ban or better medical precautions will save lives and keep children safe. How many children must die a painful miserable death from ebola for them to take this seriously?......”
Why not, I do.
“Hey Obama, be a MAN - Implement a travel BAN!”
Hey Obama, be a MAN - Implement a travel BAN!!

Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
