As Republican lawmakers suggest that undocumented immigrants crossing the southern border may be responsible for bringing measles and other diseases into the country, Mexican health authorities are warning people traveling to the United States about the risk of infection here following an outbreak of measles at Disneyland last month that has sickened dozens of people in several states.

We need to play this up, put big billboards in Spanish on the border warning that America is full of measles and disease from all these horrible un-vaccinated white barbarians.

Let me see if I have this straight. Illegals brought measles here and now it is returning to Mexico, and the WaPoo is giving Mexico credit for their Public Health advances???? They really do think we are that stupid.

Here is my comment after the article. It’s a new thread so if you give my comment a like, thousands of liberals will get indigestion upon reading the hated truth.

My WaPo comment:
Suddenly, in “Dog bits man” fashion, the WaPo has discovered germs and viruses can cross borders. Funny how the WaPo never reported on the connection between disease outbreaks across the USA that followed upon tens of thousands of illegal aliens from Mexico and Central America being given a free entry pass by President Obama. Ever heard of Entero-Virus D-68? It’s endemic in Guatemala, but is so rare that only a handful of cases were reported in the USA over the past decades. Then suddenly it is threatening the lives of American children in many states, just as the fall 2014 school term was starting. Oh, and by the way, all public schools were mandated to accept these “children” (self-reported ages) with no health screening.

I remember when reporters used to actually seek out stories like diseases being brought into the country by a wave of illegal aliens, with the administration’s active collusion and. It was called a scoop, and might even help the public. But now the Post is just a branch of American Pravda (ABCNNBCBS-NYTWPLAT). Instead of going after presidential scandals (Nixon) they are now part of the cover-up team, burying scandals such as Fast and Furious (300+ dead Mexicans, on purpose), the IRS targeting of conservative groups, etc etc. This is how American Pravda has earned its new motto: “It’s Not a Scandal If We Don’t Report It.”

Can’t forget about all the millions of both male & female cases of AIDS, Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Chlamidia, Pene muertos, etc...

This really IS a dangerous place to move.

And how about all those serial killers with a Mexican fetish? All the missing Mexican children?

Yes they do. They did the same thing with a hybrid sorghum disease called Ergot. It was in Mexico before it came to the US then they put restrictions on sorghum seed being exported to Mexico from the US. Their fields were completely infested with Ergot but they didn’t want seed from US.

President Obama and his friends and followers call everything between New York and Los Angeles “Fly-over” country. Many donors to the Democratic party live in these two large cities. It seems like as long as the people who donate money to the Democratic party are not hurt then the rest of us must suffer from whatever problems the Presidential policies might cause. Who knows how many illegals are actually here and how many diseases they have, what nations they come from, what terrorist groups might be represented. One scenario we might think of is 50 illegal aliens who have been poor all of their lives with very little money and no food could be given $50.00 each to cause chaos on the Mexican-American border. Someone could pay $2500 for one platoon of irregular soldiers who have no care whether they live or die would be very inexpensive for terrorists. It would be very expensive for us to catch and prosecute these people. I think this might be part of what is happening on the Southern-US border.
