Thats right. They are there to hold an umbrella while that POS regurgitates his babble.
Why don’t the house dems go over and do it themselves.
“Reps. Keith Ellison (Minn.), Karen Bass (Calif.), and Barbara Lee (Calif.)?
All from the Amish Caucus, one acknowledged Muzzie and two probably in the closet.
Keith X should send Major Hassan.
Talk about “mission creep”!!
“provide direct care to Ebola patients”. Let me change that to run the risk of contracting Ebola and brining it home.
I have no idea how many nurses and doctors were involved at the Texas hospital treating Mr. Duncan for the two weeks he was there. having said that a CDC based article says it takes 20 people to treat an Ebola patient in a level 4 hospital. If so that means you have a 10% chance of contracting Ebola while “provide direct care to Ebola patients”.
10% of 3,000 American military personal - that means we are looking at 300 potential infected personal. Personally, I would expect the number to be higher because of the more primitive hospital facilities.
I agree with your position - it is long past time for our leaders from Obama down to the local dog catcher to lead from the front and go out and do the job that they are ordering others to do.
Well see a 12-15% fatality rate out of this. This is agonizing.
It goes far beyond that, in my opinion, it’s aiding and abetting the murder of our military and you can bet when they start dying we will be asked to believe that they didn’t follow proper protocol.
the dims
“We are sending you on a suicide mission....any volunteers? A show of hands?”
Ellison (not his real name prior to filing for election to the office) is a muzzie. Go figure.
What time frame do you see for that?
because the 101st Airborne are all medics??? How about we send them all of the CDC instead?
I’ll second that and Frieden can set up his command tent next to the Ebola ward tents.
We all knew that was coming. Sure, as if they have those skills. When a major hospital following CDC protocol (snort) has failures, imagine how quickly it’ll spread throughout our troops. Of course, that was the point all along.
Can we just send Obama and Congressional Democrats instead?
say, 180 days (being generous)
Do you find that estimate...odd...high/low? (honest question)
That’s not entirely from the disease. That’s including logistics accidents and villagers killing a few Marines with machetes because they think the Marines are actually infecting them.
Ain’t gonna be zero. I recall living in LA and hearing about fatalities at Camp Pendleton, near San Diego. Weekend exercise with 4500 Marines on the beach, doing exercises, war games, whatever. No weekend *ever* went by when 2-4 were not killed in Jeep rollover accidents. That’s from screwing around on the beach.
We have about the same number of personnel, in 6 months you have 25 weekends, helicopter flights, that’s say 80-100 men/women, from the disease I would estimate that 5-7% is inevitable.
I absolutely do not mean to be ghoulish and certainly not insulting to our troops in any respect, I’ll revise my number down to 10%.
If health care workers in a US hospital fell victim to Ebola how much more at risk will US service personnel be treating Ebola is the wilds of Africa especially since they likely do not have the protective gear or training to handle an infectious disease like Ebola. Obama just sent these brave warriors on a suicide mission.
Agreed !
Due to the adminstrations history of "MISSION CREAP", I expect that some will be ordered to have direct contact with the infected.
They are doomed if they follow the CDC proocals, better to follow equipment and procedures of MSF(Medicines Sans Frontiers) who are already expierienced with Ebola.
If they are to build structures, send in the Sea Bees, or Army Engineers
If they are to have direct contact , send them in with the House DemoRATS !
Maybe the soldiers could have a meet and greet photo-op with these very patriotic congresshumans upon their return. Like to see them weasel out of that.
So, three radicals who hate America want our boys and girls to die? Figures.
