Democrats Join Call To Ban Travelers From West Africa


WASHINGTON -- Three Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives have joined Republicans in calling on President Barack Obama to restrict travel by people from Ebola-stricken West Africa.

"The United States needs to institute travel restrictions, enhanced airport screening and possible quarantine of individuals who have traveled to, or from, the West African countries that have been most impacted by this tragic Ebola epidemic," says the Wednesday letter.

Reps. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.), Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) and Dave Loebsack (D-Iowa) joined two dozen Republicans in signing the letter. Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) is one of the only other Democrats who has called for a travel ban, most loudly advocated so far by Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R). (Grayson first called for a ban in July.) As The Hill reported, a new poll shows that a majority of Americans support the idea.

ml




Of course, it probably doesn't help any that Alan Grayson is bonafide nuts, but still, he's a Democrat.






Has anyone put forth any mechanism by which this travel ban would be enforced?

How do you propose to restrict people coming in from places that already don't have direct flights into this country?

How intrusive do you want to get? How far into the background checks do you want to go? How long would each background check take, and how long are you willing to wait to board a plane while that check is being done?

As usual, you propose more regulation, more authoritarian measures, and more security theatre, all of which you've already been shown won't work.

Maybe you should just propose building a wall around Africa.


Take it up with Obammy - I keep hearing him yakking about all his plans, which we all know are insanely inept and disasterously delayed.

Hard to keep track of all the stories.

There is a US Medical person in Yurp with Ebola? Or they died from it?
After one nurse in Dallas with Ebola, is there another nurse in America with it?
Is there another confirmed case in America?

Thanks for the help, everybody.

Hold on... isn't there a rule or some protocal that states if you TREAT an ebola patient, you can't go flying around hither and yon on planes, trains or buses until you yourself have cleared some BASIC level of screening ? ESPECIALLY if one of your fellow co-workers has ALSO been infected ?

This is frelling nuts.

Try asking Belize. Despite thousands of Cruise Ship passengers who wanted to disgorge and spend gobs of tourist dollars on knickknacks at the port, Belize refused to allow a Cruise Ship to enter harbor because one of the passengers was at the Dallas hospital which allowed Duncan to die, and infect other previously healthy people.
The Black President Obama should send in the Marines to force Belize to get Ebola too.

Breaking News:

Last Ebola Czar Democrat political fundraising hack Dr. Nicole Lurie (ASPR) replaced by far worse Democrat political fundraising hack Ron Kain (no Doctor, no clue about medicine) as new Ebola Czar.

Dr. Nicole Lurie (ASPR - the office created by President George W. Bush 10 years ago) has not made headlines for 3 years, when she got caught transferring funds away from Ebola-combating medical companies (like the company whose research and medical products are NOW being used to combat the Ebola in Dallas) and into campaign funds for democrat politicians. How putrid! Nothing more in 3 years - very poor Democrat crime and crony performance.

With this new Czar, how many millions of rounds of 9mm bullets will be needed to combat this Ebola enemy? How many limos will be needed? Perhaps a jumbo jet akin to Air Force One for the Czar? How much of these Ebola funds can be used to force patients to vote Democrat in Nov? How many Ebolas can be used to Get Out The Vote in Nov? How many millions of taxpayer dollars can be diverted to Ebola to corrupt the elections, defraud the elections, disenfranchise the honest voters of America?


At least we now know that Ebola is a political disease, and not a medical or biological one.

US Troops are sent overseas to combat that horrible Military Threat known as Ebola in Africa.
The Doctors and Nurses already there are not allowed to have contact with Ebola patients, while they hang out in luxury suites far from the areas of exposure. But the military troops, with all of 4 hours of training are amongst the infected, without protection, forging our front line of defense against this combat threat. How many grenades can an Ebola lob? How effective is the firing rate of Ebolas? How many RPGs can an Ebola carry in it's back pocket?
Shirley The Black President wants to know, and has no clue so far. How far can an Ebola effectively Tee-off, and also then effectively Putt?

Now a 3rd Ebola case in Dallas has surfaced, reportedly at Baylor Hospital. At least we know that The Black President's goal to infect America is working.

Reportedly the 21-day incubation rate has now been changed by the CDC to a 42-day incubation rate. So we will know by around November 20 how many have been infected by Duncan and the Obamacare policies. This, of course, is after the elections.

We closed our eyes to Ebola, we forgive the AIDS and how spread. Now, we still in that way. Here, a lot of racism was spread to, and of course, xenophobia. This is a problem of everybody, and if we don't note that, we gonna make the things wrost. The Ebola is now spreading in Africa, and who will help to pay the UN intentions to threat the epidemia? Isolate the countries can be a "good idea" now, but when ebola mutates, and when the virus became possible to spread on the air? When this happens, you cannot cry to your mothers.

Just to bring this back OT



With Obamacare announcing all ebola patients should come to America for free health care, the Liberian guy hopped on the plane after getting Ebola from the dead lady giving birth, knowingly spreading it to airline passengers and random folks around America.

The invitation for all Ebola carriers to come to America unfettered seems shallow - will they really stay alive long enough to vote for Bobo's democrap cronies?

It's important that you all makes these links, folks, he's BLACK, he has something to do with Africa, he introduced a COMMUNIST health care system and now Americans are dying in DROVES from ebola. Well maybe a couple of people have it. BUT LET"S PANIC ANYWAY. BECAUSE HE IS A BLACK PRESIDENT. ERMIGAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same Cruise Ship was also not allowed to dock at Cozumel, Mexico.

You could also ask the 35 other countries worldwide which have enacted a travel ban, while The Black President couldn't tear himself away from the Putting Green long enough to accomplish the same.

Nigeria Is Ebola-Free: Here’s What They Did Right
http://time.com/3522984/ebola-nigeria-who/

"It's been 42 days since the last new case

"The World Health Organization declared Nigeria free of Ebola on Monday, a containment victory in an outbreak that has stymied other countries’ response efforts."

"Keeping borders open. Nigeria has not closed its borders to travelers from Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, saying the move would be counterproductive. “Closing borders tends to reinforce panic and the notion of helplessness,” Shuaib said. “When you close the legal points of entry, then you potentially drive people to use illegal passages, thus compounding the problem.” Shuaib said that if public health strategies are implemented, outbreaks can be controlled, and that closing borders would only stifle commercial activities in the countries whose economies are already struggling due to Ebola."

Welcome to the Big Apple !




The Big Apple may have its first case of Ebola.

A 33-year-old Doctors Without Borders physician who recently treated Ebola patients in Guinea was rushed in an ambulance with police escorts from his Harlem home to Bellevue Hospital on Thursday, sources said.

Craig Spencer was suffering from Ebola-like symptoms — a 103-degree fever and nausea, sources said.

He landed at JFK airport on Oct. 17 on a connecting flight from Brussels, a source said. Spencer’s temperature was 98.7 degrees upon arrival, the source added.

So taking temps doesn't work, as you've just shown.

Also, are we now to block flights from anywhere that allows flights from Africa? He came to the U.S. on a flight from Brussels, it says. Just like Mr. Duncan.

Explain again how banning flights that don't exist would help.

Just announced ...the doctor has tested positive for ebola.

Obama/CDC fuck-up #1 : His passport showed he had recently been in Guinea. He should never have been allowed back in the U.S.

Obama/CDC fuck-up #2 : He was not put in quarantine for 21 days upon his arrival. Now he would have been, but when he came back there was no quarantine protocol in place.

They have no idea how many people he has had contact with since his return, and they cannot know who they've had contact with or where they are. Same goes for all the other West Africa world travelers prior to the new restrictions. First few weeks in November will reveal the disastrous results of Obama's leadership failure. A gigantic cluster-fuck that could affect tens of thousands.

Those professionals in Africa WERE following strict CDC protocol, and yet they were somehow infected. How ? No one has said. They don't know.

The latter stages of the disease, it becomes more contagious. It's obvious that the health workers in Texas were dealing with a far more contagious patient than those who had been near him before the virus had progressed.

They have no idea how many people he has had contact with since his return, and they cannot know who they've had contact with or where they are. Same goes for all the other West Africa world travelers prior to the new restrictions. First few weeks in November will reveal the disastrous results of Obama's leadership failure. A gigantic cluster-fuck that could affect tens of thousands.


Ebola on the loose for 6 days in NYC!! What better place in the world for Ebola to roam. Doctor did not quarrantine himself, went bowling, train riding the subways. Brilliant.

AAAAnd Islamo-fascist Terrorist also was loose for a bit in NYC subway, until cops shot him after he hatcheted 2 other cops. His facebook page appears to mirror that other beheading terrorist from Moore, Oklahoma.

But, word from the WH is that Obama has been briefed on the teenager who broke up with his GF and fought about a racial slur near Seattle, then shot some. And he had a photo-op with Amy Phan which was media-banned. Has any of this cut into his Putting Time?

Has President Bobo announced plans to invade Ebola yet? Or is he having Biden take charge on that front?

Biden says the best way to protect yourself against ebola is to fire off a few shotgun shells from the bedroom porch.

Gotta perpetuate the false meme, huh?




Are you suggesting she never called Africa a country?

Anyone ever notice that Thomas Eric Duncan didn't infect a single one of his family members while he was symptomatic while in close quarters with them?

The people who were infected were the health workers who were given inadequate training and protection by the state of Texas



Those professionals in Africa WERE following strict CDC protocol, and yet they were somehow infected. How ? No one has said. They don't know.



No, they WEREN'T following strict CDC protocol. You know how you can tell? Because they got infected.


Quote:


The latter stages of the disease, it becomes more contagious. It's obvious that the health workers in Texas were dealing with a far more contagious patient than those who had been near him before the virus had progressed.



Cites? Do you have any evidence that Ebola becomes more contagious in the "latter stages of the disease?" Once you're symptomatic, you're contagious. You don't get *more* contagious after that - you start shedding more fluids from your body, but the virus itself doesn't change to become more virulent.

It's amazing how so many conservatives have suddenly become experts on evolution all of a sudden.

By coming into direct contact with the bodily fluids of someone infected with Ebola. That's how you get Ebola.

I know you don't believe in science, but those really are the facts about how you get Ebola.

You can't dodge cites yourself, and then jump on others for not giving cites.

Jackwagon.

Never heard Palin call Africa " a country " , so you'll have to cite that one.

And the ipso facto claim that the doctors did NOT follow strict CDC protocol is laughable.

The fact that they were infected proves that they failed to follow strict protocols.

It's kind of the same way you dipshits keep shooting yourselves with all those "unloaded" guns.

Wait - did you think the virus suddenly evolved and became airborne overnight? Or maybe it grew into adulthood where it learned to fly while it became ever more contagious as it got older?

Oh, raptard will never watch that. If he did, he wouldn't be able to keep asking for cites and claiming he never heard her make the remark. And as he believes, if he didn't hear it, it never happened. He's got the scientific mind of a two year old, and the poopy diapers to match.

And there STILL is no proof that Palin called Africa a ' country '. We have gossip and innuendo, from jaded McCain staffers, after the fact, who everyone KNOWS had it in for Palin.

Sorry, it is not , as Niska said " solid " . It is not fact.

yeah. fucking hi-larious when folks " mysteriously " get infected with Ebola, and yet no one knows exactly how that happened.

Your sense of humor ? You're doing it wrong.

Today's your day, buttercup.

Ebola cannot be spread simply by being near someone who is infected. People only become contagious after they begin to have symptoms.
