Simple common sense isn't dead - it's just slow as hell. Congratulations to Democrats for finally figuring it out!
Well, even their grey matter allows things to filter in. Especially if they are worried about their own asses.
It is amazing to watch in action no? And yet repeatedly the 'usual suspects' will continue to remain silent on this part, until they think a sufficient amount of time for people to forget this mistake (in their eyes) has passed in the public's eye, and then continue with the lie that they never did any such thing, and compel those bringing it up to find the subsequent articles only after the liberal media have scrubbed the net of any such mention except for right leaning sites....It's quite a wonderful deception.

Worse are those that will play on it that are in Government. Then they will say they needed the money to make response teams, and to set up hot lines, To put out information. All under the guise that it needs to be done, so that protocols and communications are all ready to go. Which for many places that will be the case that it is needed.
Already they were talking about some guy who made a portable transfer tube. One time use......13k. He had designed it for the outbreak of Chem Warfare. Lives somewhere here in Illinois. Hospitals across the globe have been inquiring. He wants to see ambulances with them. That's one time use.....then would be replaced, so the Ambulance doesn't have to be taken out of commission and deconned. Or whatever mode of transportation.
He even donated one to O'Hare Airport.
Which by the way Rahm Emanuel Chicago Mayor......knows how to milk a crisis. So to does Governor Quinn.....who announced yesterday he was creating a Task Force for the State to handle any Ebola issues. Emanuel wants one for Chicago too.
Sure, just open the vaults where all the extra money is stored - we've got plenty to spare! :shock:
NP Lady P.....they will just print what they need. But only just that much. :2razz:
1.)There are no direct flights from West Africa to the US
2.)Yes because then we cannot detect people infected with the disease and healthcare workers there that might be from the US
It looks like t here are no flights to the US from the areas where Ebola outbreaks have occurred.

Yeah, none from those infected but, Senegal and Nigeria are West Africa so is Ghana. Here is another with flights.

I see you are as well informed as ever.... he actually already appointed Dr. Vivek Murthy. Since you are so well informed, you realize its the NRA that has used its clout to shake the knees of the spineless (mostly Cons, but some Dems as well) by "warning" they would score the vote. (the NRA ought to be shot)

Some of the countries one flight away are in Western Europe. Should we then suspend all flights from Western Europe?
No, we should suspend the granting of new Visa's to people who originate out of Ebola plagued Nations.
it wouldn't be that difficult.
The surgeon General grip is as bull**** political theater and partisan propaganda as the direct flight ban is
I don't know if people are honestly ignorant of how government works or if their just purposefully dishonest hyper partisan hacks, but either way as a government employee let me fill you in on how things work with significant position spike the surgeon general
They're never "vacant". We have an acting Surgeon General today, Boris Lushniak. He was named deputy surgeon General in 2010 under Obama's administration and is currently the acting surgeon general...which is precisely one of the main reason the government uses deputee executives, so that there is no lag in the position between official appointments.
Bitching about the surgeon General is like bitching about the directly fought ban...political theater. We have one, in the position due to an appointment by this administration. Either he's competent for the job, in which case all the political posturing is simply using this crisis to bash republicans in a hollow fashion, or he's not competent in which case sure...we need to hurry up and appoint an SG and then we need to see why we had an incompetent deputee appointed.

What's even more amazing is we all ready had an Ebola Czar in Dr. Nicole Lurie assistant secretary for preparedness and response.
Where is she hiding and why?

That we could do.
Cancelling flights, not so much.

Anything to deflect from the shame our President is.
Sure. Have no problems with it.So... You agree with his choice?
What so bad about this "action"?Or... are you just one of those that will defend the actions of the Administration regardless?
