>>>you’d have a hard time convincing me ...acting out of treasonous motives. This was just stupid.
I think you are missing the point. The President is in charge of protecting this nation. Any time you have to implement precautionary measures on a national scale, you MUST implement a plan that is more draconian than the minimum. Why? Because the minimum workable plan is the one that assumes that everyone will follow the rules, no screw ups, or unanticipated events, etc.
On a national scale, such an expectation has 0% chance of realization, because stupid is as stupid does. Thus, the President had at his disposal more draconian measures, such as barring the transport of citizens from the affected nations onto US soil, and forcing US citizens who were in those places into pre-emptive quarantine upon return. He should have anticipated screw ups in the field, which can cannot be averted, but can be compensated for with more stringent rules.
But what has he done? He has created the most porous border in US history. He has not restricted flights to/from these nations (even to the point of applying political pressure to other nations that have restricted flights). The same day our visitor gets sick, the president signs an executive order (http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2014/09/26/presidential-memorandum-deferred-enforced-departure-liberians) prohibiting the repatriation of illegal Liberians. What more could he do to lower our defenses? Extend invitations to ISIS??
I think you are missing the point.
Well then you're clueless. I was talking about the medical personnel who handled the case, not the President. As to the thug in the White Hut, I said two weeks ago when it was first announced that the President was going to send 3,000 troops to Africa that his purpose was to bring ebola back to the US. I believe he does it as a matter of "social justice," that 'whitey gets to suffer the same diseases he wouldn't cure in Africa.'
There, now that should be enough for you.
