President Barack Obama is expected to issue an executive order Thursday paving the way for the deployment of National Guard forces to Liberia to help contain the Ebola outbreak there, sources told NBC News.
The sources said that eight engineers and logistical specialists from the Guard, both active-duty and reservists, would probably be included in the first deployment. They are expected to help build 17 Ebola treatment centers, with 100 beds apiece. The sources said that no decision had been made.

It's the War On Ebola! Given the success of the War On Poverty and the War On Drugs this should be another spectacular success!!

Obama won’t be satisfied til everyone he hates gets killed off, that is the plan..kill off the military, our national guard, our marines, and anyone living in a red state
To: Bitsy
I agree, send Obama and his Minions to Liberia..after all, according to Obama he gave the nurses at Emory Hospital hugs and kisses and nothing happened to him..so send him to Liberia, let him give the patients big hugs and kisses

Yes. ARNG Air Guard getting briefing from LRAFB on possible SRP/SRQ for aviation missions into Monrovia, Liberia. LRAFB is world headquarters for C-130 training and logistical drops.

Why not send the National Guard? It’s not like they are busy guarding the Mexican border /sar

The NATIONAL Guard, which guards the nation called the United States of America, NOT Liberia!
The same National Guard he wouldn’t send to our southern border. I know it is pointless to ask this, but Congress, WHERE ARE YOU?

Send every one of these lab-coated clowns first.
Remember them - the frauds that sold us Obamacare? Surely them must have superior medical skills to the NG.
