Our Whitehouse isn’t ours anymore.

It belongs to “the world”.

Democrats are so, completely out to lunch about this.

“as a political crisis deepened “

Yeah, and that’s what this is all about.

Never mind people’s lives.

I don’t remember the state controlled “media” always referring to President Bush as “The White House”.

Interesting to me that hard core lib govs like Cuomo, O’Malley and NJFatboy are diverging from the regime’s dictates.

Yeah. Let a dozen people end up with Ebola in NYC, and watch several million people leave in a few days.

The public health aspects of the ebola epidemic should trump everything else. In President Obola’s America, such is not the case.

How is it not completely obvious to anyone with an adult brain that this administration is willing to put peoples lives at risk in order to protect the open borders policy.

Which by the way is not a policy at all. It's a violation of their duty, their oath of office and above all it's a CRIME.

Everything in this White House becomes a constitutional crisis.This is deliberate. They attack the chinks in our armor relentlessly with the sole purpose of destroying the foundation of the greatest republic the world has ever known. The Marxists have been at it for over 100 years. They smell success and a little thing like a total financial collapse or a global pandemic will not bother them in the least. In fact they will relish it and put it aside with the old bromide that to make an omelette you have to break a few eggs. The eggs BTW are you!

" Each State, in ratifying the Constitution,
is considered as a sovereign body,
independent of all others, and only to be bound by its own voluntary act.
In this relation, then, the new Constitution will,
if established, be a FEDERAL, and not a NATIONAL constitution".

Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your......

(hat tip to: fivecatsandadog!)

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

No doubt about that....

If people die over from it, then there is criminal liability.

One thing is for sure... They can’t say they were not warned.

I’m sure they will say we were misadvised.

Cuomo and Christie should warn the White House over Ebola quarantine rules hypocrisy for our troops.

But their both democrats so no hope for that.

12.5 percent of patients don’t run a fever.

Ever. That’s one out of every eight people thermal scanned by by our guardians.

One out of eight skipping free.

Hatfill: Well, 12.5 percent of patients don’t run a fever. In that New England Journal of Medicine study, where they just looked at several thousand of these cases in West Africa, the lead author of the paper is adamant. He says, I sat there, I monitored this patient’s temperature myself until they died and they never ran a fever. Well, generating a fever is a fairly complex mechanism in your body. Neutrophils and cytokines are involved. One of the things a virus does is it inhibits neutrophil activation. Ebola’s outer glycoprotein can secrete a truncated version of it. You’ve seen the planes come over and shoot out the flares so the missile can’t get them. That’s what Ebola’s doing. It’s shooting out these little truncated bits of glycoprotein as flares. It’s masking itself. Indirectly, its inhibiting neutrophil activation, and what they release tell us to run a fever.... more at link

I don’t remember the state controlled “media” always referring to President Bush as “The White House”.

Our actual president wasn't elected. Her name is Valarie Jarret. The media just doesn't want to say that.

What does it mean to be a New York Democrat now if the Democrat in the White House wants New York airports to accept possible Ebola carriers from West Africa with no restrictions, while the Democrat in New York’s Governor’s Mansion wants to quarantine West African arrivals so they don’t spread a deadly plague in his state?

In this time of crisis, we have pro-Ebola Democrats and anti-Ebola Democrats.

So how can New York voters support both Anti-Ebola-ist Governor Cuomo in his reelection bid next Tuesday and at the same time also vote for Democratic Congresspersons who will support the Pro-Ebola-ist Obama in Washington? To be or not to be, that is the question for New Yorkers next week.
