He was on the “no fly” list. What did they not understand?
After all these years of never getting a message, the border guy gets message, now gets another message. We’re series! Especially since MSM has taken such a hugh interest, probably because there was an airplane involved at some point.
If the guy had a Hispanic surname, and no identification, the border agent would still be on the job. Probably get a bonus.
Doctors hope also to determine where he contracted the disease, which has been found around the world and exists in pockets in Russia and Asia.
I would like to know the answer to this.
It’s one thing to not have safeguards in place. That can be fixed. It’s another thing to have them but allow a culture that says that procedures do not need to be followed if it’s “really busy”.
I was in South Africa and it is cropping up there too. Of course, you don’t find that in the MSM.
“I would like to know the answer to this.”
Do you mean if he was dosed by dear ol’ dad-in-law,
or what the heck —
“”which has been found around the world and exists in pockets in Russia and Asia.”
—means.
It’s interesting how a personal injury lawyer would come into contact with this. Multi-drug resistant TB was ‘out there’ in the 1990s. In the 2000’s this extreme stuff morphed.
I really want to know how he contracted this.
I don’t get it. Hundreds of thousands of individuals cross our southern “border” illegally every year and we haven’t a clue who they are or what horrible disease they may be infected with. It doesn’t seem to bother Bush particularly or the CDC. Why the big fuss over one guy? All of a sudden they’re concerned? Don’t make me laugh!
I think Andy is gonna see up close and personal the other side of the litigation process now that the other plane passengers and crew now know who he is.
Dear Lord .. Syrian musicians doing dry runs, lost government laptops, dumb National Archives directors and now border agents ??? I think we all just need to be deputized and man our stations !
The only thing that this guy could have done to ingratiate himself to his chain of command more would have been to help an illegal alien carry a nuclear weapon across the border. Chertoff will be promoting him and Boosh will be inviting him to the State of the Union Speech next January.
The guy couldn’t have done more for his future by winning on American Idol.
LOL. No, I wouldn’t think he got a dose from his Father-in-law. ROFLOL. Oh Dear, at least I sincerely hope that’s not the case. :) What a horrible way to begin a marriage or much of anything else, for that matter. What WAS he thinking?
Were I his wife, upset wouldn’t begin to describe it.
I can’t figure out why he didn’t take care of his health first, then launch a new life.
They don’t know how to read, write or speak English. I will bet the farm on it. Or is this a sick experiment?
He will be kept in a special unit with a ventilation system to prevent the escape of germs. "He may not leave that room much for several weeks," hospital spokesman William Allstetter said....Speaker's father-in-law has worked at the CDC for 32 years and is in the Division of Tuberculosis Elimination, where he works with TB and other organisms. He has co-authored papers on diabetes, TB and other infectious diseases. ...
That personal injury lawyer should spend his time in quarantine looking up defenses for his own conduct.
I suppose the fact that this guy even encountered a border agent at all during his crossing shows some progress.
I couldn’t agree more.
