O’Reilly Goes Nuclear on ‘Propagandist’ CDC Director, Calls on Him to Resign
Mediaite ^ | 10/13/14 | Josh Feldman |

Posted on 10/13/2014 7:26:17 PM PDT by Nachum

Bill O’Reilly went nuclear tonight on CDC Director Tom Frieden, calling him out for refusing to appear on his show and declaring that Frieden should resign for perpetuating a “dumb and dangerous ruse” on the likelihood that Ebola may spread in the United States.

O’Reilly trashed the “total garbage” coming from Frieden, and called him a chief propagandist spreading a “dumb and dangerous ruse.” And not getting behind a travel ban while believing airport employees will be able to check for Ebola is “stupid and irresponsible and puts all Americans at risk.”

And in the next two segments O’Reilly held on the subject, he continued to hammer away at Frieden. He continued to call him a propagandist and “spinner,” shouted about the “total lie” of civilian employees being able to spot Ebola, and continued to call on him to resign.

O’Reilly cried, “Resign! Have a little dignity!… You’re misleading the American public!” And he kept shouting in anger at Frieden for the rest of the segment.

Yes, we uppity Americans need to be reduced to Third World conditions just to make things fair.

If I were an airport worker I’d stay as far away as I could from anyone exhibiting symptoms.

Problem is, if you're close enough to notice symptoms you've likely already been in the contagious zone long enough for infection. Just one tiny still-wet spot (sneeze debris, skin oils, whatever) with just one virus and you're in for a very bad month.

Friedan is right out of central casting, playing the incompetent government official on the tube that keeps telling everyone things are just great while zombies are running wild in the streets.

GOP should be calling for his head, but GOP has no leader other than Cruz, who hasn’t weighed in yet on this creep.

Frieden is a NYC communist democrat

Tobacco control

Upon his appointment as Health Commissioner in January 2002, Frieden made tobacco control a priority,[19] resulting in a rapid decline[20] after a decade of no change in smoking rates.

Frieden established a system to monitor the city’s smoking rate, and worked with New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg to increase tobacco taxes,[21] ban smoking from workplaces including restaurants and bars, and run aggressive anti-tobacco ads and help smokers quit.[22] The program reduced smoking prevalence among New York City adults from 21.6% in 2002 to 16.9% in 2007– a change that represents 300,000 fewer smokers and could prevent 100,000 premature deaths in future years.[20][23] Smoking prevalence among New York City teens declined even more sharply, from 17.6% in 2001 to 8.5% in 2007, and is now less than half the national rate.[24]

The workplace smoking ban prompted spirited debate before it was passed by the New York City Council and signed into law by Mayor Bloomberg.[25] Over time, the measure has gained broad acceptance by the public and business community in New York City.[26][27] New York City’s 2003 workplace smoking ban was among those following California’s ban in 1994. Frieden supports increased cigarette taxes as a means of forcing smokers to quit, saying “tobacco taxes are the most effective way to reduce tobacco use.”[28]

Frieden supported the 62-cent Federal tax on each cigarette pack sold in the United States, introduced in April 2009.[29]-Wiki

Too late to call DC politicians

FEDGOV REFUSES to do it’s job.

Protecting US citizens is out the window.

The degenerate bastards from both parties are running for the tall grass, all they care about is getting reelected and not doing or saying anything that would be considered politically incorrect and cost them their seats.

Time for the US military to step up and institute a provisional military government is at hand.

Cases, would be number of people infected with Ebola IN the U.S. right now being treated...

And number infected while here in the U.S. = 2 out of 300+ million...

And yes, the number will grow...Anyone that says it is unlikely, or even just “possible” is not being honest with themselves, and need to slink back under their rock...

CDC is in a perpetual tail-chase now, and reasonable people see that more than they do...

The CDC deserves ALL the criticism people can dish out and then some...

Even my ardent Democrat friends are openly saying the flights should have been banned long ago and I’m talking very liberal Democrats.
