Actually, isolating carriers of contagious disease is good public health policy. It used to be SOP for diseases like TB and cholera. AIDS is the first politically protected disease. The homosexual lobby owns the democrat party and the media. It has intimidated the Republicans. It is now so bad that we even issue visas to foreign AIDS sufferers and HIV carriers, a marked departure from the former general prohibition against issuance of visas to foreigners who might potentially endanger the health of Americans. Huckabee has a winner here, if only he has the courage to remain firm. Media elites and liberal democrats may be appalled at Huckabee’s suggestion. Most common sense thinking Americans will side with him.

I don’t recall hearing any objections to using isolation to control leprosy, either.
