I didn’t see any quotes from Christie regarding the WH and Ebola. The title of this thread is misleading.

Sooo, educated adults making an informed threat assessment is stoking hysteria? The fact is, we have crossed a line in time. Back behind that line, there was no Ebola in America and, as such, there was no threat. Now, on the far side of that line, there is Ebola in America and there is a threat. The extent of that threat is the big unknown. But, looking back through history at other similar lines that were crossed, we can see that the threat potential of any incurable, easily transmitted, high mortality disease is high. This isn’t stoking hysteria, this is simply recognizing that there is a potential for this to be a major threat to the health and welfare of the citizens of this country and the fact is, the administration has, thus far, been more focused on minimizing that threat than eliminating it.

Did you? Try the last sentence. Even Paul gets it right. But since all you do is excuse Republican liberal actions on every thread discussing Republican screwing the pooch, I don’t expect any different on this one either.

The White House is taking Ebola “very seriously” but it is really nothing.

In the zombie movie, the smart people would be mounting the Ma Deuce on the K5 Blazer right now and sharpening the axes.

Christie attended 100 Sprinsteen concerts? Was he a roadie?? Because that’s one of the few reasons anyone should have done that. Otherwise, he is just weird.

I can’t stand Springsteens “music”, and he as well as the statist NJ governor are both awful people.

He’s a jackass of the highest order. Nothing he says is even worthy of print. Fatty needs to exit the stage immediately.

Dana Perino was on Greta’s show last night? If so then the fill in and her are both on The Five and seems Fox has been promoting that show a lot lately having those people on several other fox shows as either fill in guest hosts or guests. It always seems strange when there are 2 out of that 5 on a different show together, like it was no accident.

That is not the headline, and it is dishonest. He is talking about the Christie Regime, not the Obama Regime.

Agree the title is wrong, but Im sure Christie’s sentiment is agreeing with the president and the White House.

Perhaps politco has changed the title. It's currently:

"Some Republicans, including Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, have accused the White House and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of downplaying the transmissibility of the disease and giving the public a false sense of security."

I don't think the White House has been "giving the public a false sense of security". (They'd like to, I am sure. Particularly since Obama would take credit.)

Thanks to the White House having absolutely no cred about anything at this point, this is the most panic I've seen since Y2K when the computers couldn't count past 1999, all the the lights would go off and we were all gonna die.

Christie's NSA file must be a sight to behold!

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...

Chris Christy doesn't know it ...

but his "Obama is taking Ebola Seriously, in an Extraordinary Way" ...

is Christy's national political "Jump the Shark" moment.


He's finished.

Christie is right. The WH is taking this so seriously that two days of fund-raising appearances were cancelled!

Fat boy cries to Bruce Springsteen's music and thinks Obola is serious about something other than golf.

I think fatty is going to have more than a few problems in the south.

Christie is propping up Obama and the Dems just before an election, like he did in 2012, allowing Obama to parade around Sandy’s devastation with him right before the election..

One of the incoming processing sites for West Africans is in Newark, NJ at Liberty International.

Christie is the male version of Christine Todd Whitman.

Liberal @ss-kisser of Dems.
