“Liberians can thank Ebola (and Senator Jack Reed) for extended stay in the US” (9-29-14)

“WASHINGTON (AP) — Liberian immigrants living in the United States without a visa won’t be sent back to the epicenter of Ebola crisis in West Africa for at least another two years, the Obama administration said Friday”

Kept looking for the SemiNews SemiSatire tag, or the Onion.

Instead, we have stark, staring madness.

I’m not sure he consciously plotted to let Ebola in, but I certainly think Obama may had had the feeling that it wasn’t “fair” that it was restricted to Africa and that the US had to risk it too out of a kind of bizarre solidarity. Refusing to restrict travel is just another demonstration of this.

Maybe he listens to this guy:

Ezekiel Emanuel, M.D., PhD in JAMA, 1 October 2014. p. 1297: "...there are obligations of global justice to combat Ebola and strengthen health systems and infrastructure in affected countries in the longer term. Advocates of so-called cosmopolitanism - a key position in the philosophical debate about global justice - argue that national borders have no significance and that all people, regardless of where they live, are entitled to the same education, health care services, and other social resources..."

Hey Obola, why don’t you just invite people to meet them at the airport and give them a nice juicy soul kiss while we are at it?

Welcome to America, thanks for killing us...

Gamble with your own life Mr.President, not the lives of others. It’s not a game anymore.

-—they have a keen understanding of how to prevent the spread of this disease-—

The key word is “understanding”

That implies a theoretical hypothesis for prevention. The rubber is actually hitting the road as we post and a determination as to the validity of the hypothesis is going to be tested.

Meanwhile a second disease among children is apparently much worse and spreading geographically. There is no success in stopping that disease which is reaching epidenic proportions.

These are the experts, they have a keen understanding of how to prevent the spread of this disease....

Yet, the patient informed the medical staff he had recently been to West Africa and they sent him home with antibiotics, anyway.

My biggest fear about this is this administration has already declared "no way, no how" and they have been wrong on EVERYTHING since taking office.

And infected people like this guy will come here to receive great care. What about the hospital, its medical staff, the logistics/facilities people and materials, and the care itself?

Should enough people become infected, triage will be called for, meaning that people will be classified on the basis of just how severe their symptoms are—and with 0bamacare, how connected or how much they have given to the Democrat party will determine whether they get care worth $6000 or $60,000, or more.

The only madness I see is the madness of the voters who twice elected to the Presidency a man who has hated America, and everything it stands for, since his early childhood.

The hens got together and elected the fox to run the chicken coop. How is that going to end?

If my aim were to cause as much damage as possible to the US, I’d probably encourage weaponized humans carrying a deadly disease to keep pouring in, too.

Why, yes, let’s rely upon the bureaucracy...what could go wrong?

I can only hope lost flights land in the D.C. area first, just before one of the many ‘recesses’. THEN see how they all react.

Just last week, the breaking news was about a jihadist beheading a woman on American soil, a horrific event pointing to this administrations dereliction of duty.....gone, not even front page anymore. Ebola, like hurricane Sandy will rescue him.

Unless other countries restrict travel, it might help a little, but not much.

In situations like this the U.S. traditionally sets the example and other nations quickly follow, but we have no leadership anymore.

Political Correctness, more destructive than any disease, precedes every woe of our nation, indeed every woe of the world, in this the U.S. leads by example.

All part of Obama’s ongoing attempt to destroy America.

And he’s doing very well at it, too.
