Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush on Tuesday criticized President Barack Obama’s initial handling of the Ebola crisis as “incompetent,” saying it gave rise to unneeded fears among the American public about the virus.

Bush, who is the latest potential Republican presidential candidate to attack the president over Ebola, also said in a wide-ranging discussion at Vanderbilt University that he supports travel restrictions for people who have been to the most severely affected countries in Africa.

Bush said Obama should have been more “clear and concise” about his plans, and lent more credibility to health officials leading the response. …

lol. I would assume so.

Jeb thinks Obola has made a good start with the illegals. But I’m guessing Jebbie would expand the amnesty to cover the whole Ebola zone.

I think Jeb is the Dumb Bush that looks smart, while W was the smart bush that looked dumb....

How can Jeb have his stand on immigration and even criticize obama on ebola policy.

'rats spread plague


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...

Oh how brave. Months later when basically all of America was watching and thinking/saying themselves that this was “incompetent”, he comes out now.

Kareem has done a few acting jobs here and there since retiring from the ball court. I think he would have liked to do much more acting to gain the experience, but there just isnt a lot of demand for a 7ft2in 67 year old black man, unless you’re playing monsters. Kareem doesn’t do monsters any more. Being a Leading Man is almost out of the question, unless the script is tailor made just for this sort of man.

“The enigmatic Monster Shouter is a homeless doomsayer that keeps shouting “bring out your dead!” and a minor character in the 1994 TV miniseries The Stand. He was portrayed by legendary US NBA basketball player Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. “

... that he supports travel restrictions for people who have been to the most severely affected countries in Africa.

So how would a President Bush do that? Would he refuse entry to anyone who has been there? That nurse in New Jersey? That doctor in New York? Both U.S. citizens, do you stop them at the airport and force them back onto a plane back to Europe for x number of weeks? Can he legally do that? And what if the country they came from refused to admit them back?
