re: We'll tell you how dangerous Ebola is after the election.

The head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Tom Frieden, justifies Obama's refusal to prohibit flights originating in Ebola-plagued countries, saying, "A travel ban is not the right answer. It's simply not feasible to build a wall -- virtual or real -- around a community, city or country."

He's right about this whether anyone on this board admits it or not.

Why, precisely, must we attack Ebola in Africa? Research on a cure doesn't require cuddling victims in their huts. Scientists who discovered the AIDS cocktail didn't spend their nights at Studio 54 in order to "fight the disease at its source."

this is stupid. The disease pretty much doesn't exist here except for a few isolated cases very recently. In order to find a large amount of patients we would need to go to africa for research most likely.

Of all the reasons people have for coming here -- welfare, drug-dealing, Medicare scams -- "I have Ebola and I'm going to die, otherwise" is surely one of the strongest. The entire continent of Africa now knows that this is a country that will happily spend half a million dollars on treating someone who just arrived -- and then berate itself for not doing enough.

Rabble rabble rabble. Be scared of immigrants. They just want to take your medicare, sell you illegal drugs, get free government subsidies and now bring you ebola. Rabble rabble rabble.
