President Barack Obama on Friday turned to a trusted adviser to lead the nation’s Ebola response as efforts to clamp down on any possible route of infection from three Texas cases expanded, reaching a cruise ship at sea and multiple airline flights.
Facing renewed criticism of his handling of the Ebola risk, Obama will make Ron Klain, a former chief of staff to Vice President Joe Biden, his point man on fighting Ebola at home and in West Africa. Klain will report to national security adviser Susan Rice and to homeland security adviser Lisa Monaco, the White House said.
Klain does not have a medical or a health care background.
Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., slammed the decision on Twitter.
“Worst ebola epidemic in world history and Pres. Obama puts a government bureaucrat with no healthcare experience in charge. Is he serious?” Harris tweeted.

The Obama administration is very resistant to physical reality. They’re trying to end an outbreak of a rapidly fatal virus with statements and press releases.
If it gets much worse, hold onto your hats when the Sternly Worded Memo is unleashed.
Every decision out of the White Hut is pure politics.
He’s there to cover for Pres. Ebola & spin this crisis far away from the

The CBS AM show with Charlie Rose and Nora ODonnell (?) has not been totally reading from the Obama handbook for awhile now. The first hour is pretty good, until that friend of Oprah joins in. JMHO
