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.

Will the MSM be outraged?......................no, they will cheer this wise and intelligent choice for an Ebola Czar..................................
A lawyer who drove the 2000 recount for Gore. As Czar will he be able shutdown electoral districts via quarantine?
His only ‘job’ is to make Obola look good, not fight Ebola..........................
A lawyer???? Good God...was Johnny Cochrane unavailable?
Ron Klain is a spin doctor and a psychopomp like his Utopian fascist master, Barack Ebolama.
But he was in charge of the allocation, cough, kickbacks, of funds in the stimulus act. Y'all wanted a czar and you have one. At least we knew what we were dealing with with the head clown of the CDC.
Only those in Red States that could upset the balance of power................their power.........................
How many EBOLA CZARS does this country need ?
Why Has Ebola Czar Nicole Lurie Been MIA?

“You have to wonder sometimes if anyone in a leadership position in the Obama administration bothers to show up to work these days.
Case in point is Dr. Nicole Lurie, who arguably should be front and center in planning for and responding to the Ebola outbreak. After all, it’s right there in her job title.”
Bingo!
& the LSM already praising his choice..he’s smart, a great manager!
Tingle down the leg stuff.
Hardly any mentioning that he has no freakin healthcare experience!
“Klain will report to national security adviser Susan Rice and to homeland security adviser Lisa Monaco, the White House said.”
So he’s a political puppet assigned to hiding behind the skirts of a couple of female Democrat marionettes.
I’m sure he’s being paid well to take the blame for everything.
Ridiculous. It should be an expert in infectious diseases. How about someone from USAMRIID, located nearby in Reston, VA?
I wonder what the budget of his office is and where that money will actual flow.
Considering how evil Obola is, an appointment like this makes perfect sense.
Klain has no medical experience.
He’s reporting to two women, both of whom have proved to be useful idiots.
Yep, makes perfect sense. Perfectly evil. A Cloward-Piven contribution to be proud of.
“You’re doing a heck of a job, Brownie...” This guy isn’t going to be treating patients, his role is project management and his job is to prioritize and expedite.
It would certainly set a precedent if anybody in the Obama administration was qualified for the job into which they were affirmatively action placed.
You can be assured there will be kickbacks from the Czar’s office to McConnell and Cornyn to keep them in line.
Just another political hack. Who expected anything more?
What does he need training for? If he needs to know anything, Dear Leader will tell him.
