The whole Ebola “crisis” demands sarcasm, yet the media and public do NOT understand either facts, OR sarcasm, so it’s a dangerous double standard. We can play to people with intelligence and the ability to analyze facts, or play to “conservative” principles. Which, as conservative means cling to old time values of the past, they want the medical knowledge of the 15th Century to rule.
But the reality is, it hasn’t a thing to do with medicine, but politics, pure, stupid is good, pollitics.
“No, only Democrats mandate things. “They” wanted you to have a choice.”Really? Because the PPACA insurance mandate was based on Romney’s health insurance reform in MA, which itself was based on proposals made by the Heritage Foundation and championed by Newt Gingrich.
NIgeria now “Ebola free”, folks getting out of quarantine and those hospitalized are still concerned, but basically doing better, though one nurses’ move might have set her back a bit.
By (or likely before) election day, the “media” is going to have to find a new panic button to push.

Doesn’t take anything as scary as Ebola to scare them into a panic. Which is why the market can play more like craps- with loaded dice.

And they want SS to be funded that way? No thanks, I might as well get Ebola because that is how long it will last me.

A troll? No. But I won’t deny a little of your second sobriquet.

Dude, you totally forgot to tie in Obama as the Muslim Kenyan socialist behind the hoax.

There IS a difference between “restrictions” and a total ban.
