Gateway Pundit ^ | October 12, 2014 | Kristinn Taylor

Remember when Obama said… “Chances of Ebola Outbreak in U.S. Extremely Low.”

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

Today the second confirmed Ebola case was announced in Dallas, Texas.

Dr. David Lakey, Texas Department of State Health Services Commissioner, said officials are still unsure how this happened.

New Yorker columnist John Cassidy: Ebola Becoming Election Nightmare for Democrats

New Yorker columnist John Cassidy wrote an article last week on how the politics of Ebola could spell electoral doom for the Democrats should more cases arise in the U.S.

“Welcome to the great Ebola scare of 2014, which pits an increasingly jumpy American public against the technocrats of the Centers for Disease Control and the Obama Administration.”

With the announcement Sunday of a new Ebola case in Texas it looks like his worst fears for the Democrats could be realized....

I hear ya...and agree.

If he’d just let the caller get their idea/comment out AND state how or what the narrative should be - with the TRUTH, it would do wonders (IMO). He has a listening audience of millions....HE can set the narrative before the libs (who, like you said, listen in) have a chance to put their shoes on.

He’s the master of doing precisely that. I’m tired of hearing how the drive by’s are going to spin things. I want to hear Rush tell the MSM how conservatives see it.

He’s an entertainer. One of the best. He knows when the show is about to end. Remember who he plays golf with. The internal polls must be horrible

One dead, another infected in Span.

One dead, another infected in the United States.

Eight thousand infected, with four thousand dead in West Africa.

Liberals are worried not about the innocent victims of this disease but about the political effects on the November election? The far left disgusts me.

I wish you were correct....but sadly you are not...

Generations have been trained to think government is the hammer for every nail....

Yeah, it’s a biological nightmare for the rest of us but merely a political nightmare for the Democratic death cult that see a silver lining in that Obola could slow down the real horror: AGW. In fact gaia, in her infinite wisdom probably evolved Obola for thar very purpose!

It really is not a political issue.

It really is a political issue when you go against historical proven protocols on a virulent deadly disease and do not quarantine the country of origin from the people spreading it.

That was a political decission to spread ebola to America. They went totally out of the protocal box on this disease and that is politics and THE DEMS OWN THE DICISSION!

You mean that freeper who was recently banned after his many tiring posts about how great it is over there? There is still a country called America and Americans have rights and responsibilities that always get on the nerves of the irresponsible in countries where rights can be revoked on a whim. Obala is doing his best to end the American experiment, but we can do better than to give up now.

It actually might some day soon if thus criminal gang policies aren’t changed to stop this awful disease.

It’s not a political nightmare at all. They invited it, and desire it. It is a distraction from the numerous and far worse scandals that they actually fear seeing the light of day just before the election. They can only fake so many votes each year.

Filling our country with third worlders and all the diseases that come with them is a globalist ideology called open borders. To protect one’s own Nation is called isolationist or Nationalist and that is a cuss word in globalist circles.

Democrat policies are bringing diseases to the United States.

It's NOT an accident.

Some of these diseases will kill our children with polio like illnesses. Some will kill our health care workers and soldiers in the military before killing us. Democrats are creating suffering and opening the door for evil...

Liberal elites aren't caring people. Mexicans dump their criminals and surplus people here with the agreement of Democrats. Ever wonder how Harry Reid got so rich backing 'immigration'.... I wonder too.

These 'grand gestures' of theirs are ways to bring chaos. Chaos that can be used as an excuse to put the boot to our faces and grind away for eternity.

Unmentioned by Cassidy is the concurrent mysterious spread of the Enterovirus 68 which has killed several children and sickened nearly seven hundred children and adults across the country since summer. The rise of the Enterovirus 68 followed the Obama administration transporting tens of thousands of contagious disease-ridden illegal alien families and unaccompanied children around the country to unsuspecting neighborhoods.

Odd how the New York Times and Washington Post whores aren't making a big deal about these polio type diseases that Democrats are foisting on citizens. Where the hell is the 'oh so caring' LA Times? Bought out filth...
