Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal ® slammed President Obama Thursday over his administration's response to a trio of Ebola cases in the U.S.

The potential 2016 White House contender charged that the Obama administration is "incompetent" and has "committed malpractice" in its handling of the deadly outbreak.

WTF does Jindal know? Just because he was in pre-med, was a Rhodes Scholar with a degree in health policy, and worked in the health care industry, doesn't make him an expert.

Funny, exactly what Jon Stewart was talking about last night....Democrats have nothing to run on, Republicans have nothing to run on....so both will run fear campaigns..fear of Ebola and Fear of ISIS...

Love Jon Stewart:

"Nothing to run on"?

You don't think it's important to make sure that the CDC, TSA, and DHS was prepared for the possibility of ebola coming across Bob?

1) All incoming flights from those nations should have been stopped ASAP as soon as the massive outbreak began in Africa.
2) Better screening on incoming flights from other nations

3) We've already got some "supposed" (I can't say for sure based on the media stories we have seen) ISIS members getting caught coming across our borders.

Neither were considered even after we brought sick case workers back into the borders. then there's the stories of the enterovirus (Sp?) in locations where illegal immigrants were shipped to.

If anything, this is gonna ramp up the amnesty debate point in the last month of the election.

LOL at Piyush.

1) Every reputable expert is not in favor of banning flights - makes it harder to track, because they will just come another route we are monitoring as close.
2) We are monitoring.
3) The ISIS story is again, unverified. And if there are ISIS in the US (likely) they most likely came here legally, and are people you wouldn't suspect. Those you do, I would bet are being monitored.


Your entovirus is more right-wing CrAP - no link whatsoever.

Ebola is scary certainly, but consider this...

WHO has stated that world wide less than 5000 people have died from Ebola this year.
WHO estimates that between 250,000 and 500,000 people die from the flu each year worldwide.

Flu doesn't bring in TV advertising dollars like ebola does.

Uhm.. .the WHO's numbers are under fire already, per the BBC

Quote:Take the WHO Ebola response roadmap update on 10 October. It has more confirmed deaths in Liberia from Ebola (1,072) than actual cases (943).

Fear campaigns are a winner for the republican party every time.

So use 12000 deaths...my point remains valid.

If they got the number wrong on Ebola, Bob... are we sure they're correct on their flu 'numbers' (How many of their "flu" deaths are other causes?)

He's done such a great job with public health in Louisiana.

Obama only cares about restitution. Protecting Americans from a potential pandemic doesn't get his attention.

Fear tactics are the mainstay of the Democratic party. It start when Johnson ran his campaign against Goldwater. The little girl with the mushroom cloud reflected in her eye. Message: fear those war mongering Republicans. Classy.

What about the commercial with the wolves in the snow.

I'm sure he'd appreciate your approval.

Left wing lunatics...

I guess I'm the only one that found the headline amusing.
