They may have another Ebola patient in Hawaii. They don't know yet. Read about it last night.

Lui • 9 years ago

SIX WAYS EBOLA AND OBAMA ARE ALIKE
1. Obamas father is from africa and spread the Obama infection to his mother
2. Obama originated in Africa and came to Hawaii afterwards
3. Officials on both Obama and Ebola are obviously hiding something
4. Obama's birth certificate doesn't exist and neither does an Ebola crisis in the US
5. It's amazing that Obama was allowed to run for president without being vetted, its amazing the Ebola patient in Texas was allowed to enter the US from an Ebola ravaged African country without being vetted.
6. Their names both end with an A and have 5 letters.

I heard there's a nice vacation resort for you and all the other Marxist Demorats. It's in Liberia. Please go there and stay. Take Obama, Nancy Pigolsi and Can barely Reid with you.

"The official CDC website details ‘Specific Laws and Regulations Governing the Control of Communicable Diseases’, under which even healthy citizens who show no symptoms of Ebola whatsoever would be forcibly quarantined at the behest of medical authorities.

Obviously, this did not apply to a man reporting sick after arriving from Liberia a country known to have Ebola... he was released earlier from this Hospital, to return home, complaining of symptoms reticent of Ebola. Why he was not quarantined upon entering the US from Liberia while being tested for Ebola is beyond comprehension... are we permitting entry from known Ebola states without medical testing for the virus before they arrive here? Why would be do that?

I thought it was protocol for anyone arriving form an area with a pandemic outbreak to be quarantined in the US until it would be medically assured that they were not carrying the pandemic ... what happened here? Is the current Adminsitration attempting to infect the US with Ebola... they send 3000 troops (potential carriers of the disease) to the infected countries to do what? Build hospitals and clinics... something that the host nation can do on their own with financial support? Too care for their ill... why? The processes for treating Ebola don't require high tech skills... there is very limited treatment protocols for Ebola... fluids, hygienic care, antibiotics for secondary infections, and that is about it. Those treatments are administered routinely by medical professionals currently in country.

Well they wouldn't want people panicking what with all these new and strange illnesses cropping up...you know...

RobertNorwood • 9 years ago

We'll see won't we... we got people streaming into the country every which way and the Ebola cases are becoming more frequent, not to leave out that strange new virus that is paralysing children. Is there a pattern emerging here?

Nothing good has come from having Obama in the White House, nothing. It's well acknowledged he's no leader.

Well permit me to address your concerns and give a little history lesson in the process. Now I'm quite aware that many on this site are allergic to FACTS.

FACT: If the natives here before us ( American Indians I believe they are called AKA, savages ) had had a better immigration policy, your butt and my butt would not be here today. And another FACT: The newcomers ( read: us ) never honored one (1)

treaty !!!...I am proud to say that I am part Indian (Shawnee).

As to Disease: FACT (s) !:

Prior to the arrival of the Europeans, American Indians were remarkably free of serious diseases.As the European explorers and colonists began to arrive, this changed and the consequences were disastrous for Native American people. The death tolls from the newly introduced European diseases often reached 80-90 percent. Entire groups of people vanished before the tidal wave of disease.

Overall, hundreds of thousands of Indians died of European diseases during the first two centuries following contact. In terms of death tolls, smallpox killed the greatest number of Indians, followed by measles, influenza, and bubonic plague.

The real diseases here are: racism, bigotry, unkindness, greed, meanness, xenophobia, hypocrisy, ignorance,...etc..you get the point...maybe not ? !

Cures for these ? ... love, caring, kindness..you know..."Sermon on the Mount" stuff .

But what do I know ?...I just try and deal with facts....

Best to all...until someone throws some more B.S. my way...

BTW: What is all this "True American", "Real Patriot", "Sgt. Strong", "Major Mike", "VNVET", "Commando Cody", "609th Squad", B*llSh*t ? .If you did serve ! Thank you for your service !!!..But ! if you make no sense and/or are a racist or a bigot, I'll rip you a new one...Also, I've always found that the men who really got in the action were loathe to talk about their service. I'm very good friends with a Ranger and a Tunnel-rat ( rather what's left of him: plastic,metal,wires, agent orange, PTSD )..They don't talk much ! Everyone have a good night.

Also, I've been banned from your sister site ( BizPac, I believe its called )...The sissies there could not take it so Big Brother ( probably a Koch) stepped in and banned me..Just as well, I was getting full eating their lunches...

All I used were facts.. Ciao ! Oh, sorry, English only....Goodbye :)

They don't seem to be "cured" on this site: racism is here big time, hypocrisy is here big time, xenophobia is here big time, meanness is here bigtime, bigotry is here big time, unkindness is here big time !!! SO what's your dismissal that they have cures ...Proof this site is rife with all these diseases !!!

You still ignored my historical perspective as to what "we" did to the Indians..You should take up ballet as you're such a good dancer ...

Nobody wants to be sick or have his /her loved ones sick..But I've never seen such fear mongering sissies in all my life as that are on this site. Where's your tough nature now ? Easy to reminisce about having been tough ...but really were you tough ???..sounds like B.S. to me ...

Ebola incubation

From MedTV:

"Ebola Incubation Period

The Ebola incubation period is the period between infection
with the virus and the appearance of symptoms associated with the disease. The
incubation period can be as short as 2 days or as long as 21 days. A PERSON IS
STILL CONTAGIOUS DURING THIS TIME” (MY CAPS)

Did the person have Ebola before he got on the plane? Could
he have contacted it from someone else on the plane? (Incubation can be as short as
2 days) Have all the people on that flight been quarantined? What about the
people that had contact with the people on the flight? Have all the people that
had contact at the airport in the US been contacted and quarantined? How about
all the people he had contact in the two days after he was initially sent home
AND THE SIX DAYS BEFORE HE HAD SYMPTOMS?
Remember according to MedTV people are contagious DURING THE INCUBATION PERIOD WITH NO SYMPTOMS.

And the Koch bros. thing ain't gonna fly anymore either. It's a weird world when liberal Democrats actually act like they're the party of the poor when its donor base can boast some of the wealthiest people on the planet. When was the last time you went to $50,000 dollar a plate dinner or even a $25,000. Ah, the benevolent wealthy liberal, so in touch with the poor. It's nice to have poor people to hold up to the crowd like a sick baby, which explains why liberal policies keep making more.

If you haven't seen my posts here, Then you did not hear what I've been saying.
I have said that the oligarchs and plutocrats run the country and BOTH parties are beholden to "them". They ( both R and D ) get together and one says to the other: "You bring the smoke and I'll bring the mirrors". If you don't see that then this discussion is fruitless ! This whole thing of goring each other's ox is idiotic.

RobertNorwood • 9 years ago

"goring each other's ox", I like that. Okay so we have some agreement both are guilty. I think the idea should be to not go over board with any Marxist sounding sentiments about rich vs poor, left vs right.

giant33 • 9 years ago

I read a UN health agency report saying 6,574 people have been infected with ebola in five west African countries. As of 9/23/14 375 health care workers have been infected. This A-hole leader is sending our troops over there. This insanity has to end.

treefrog • 9 years ago

A-hole leader Bushie sent 5,000 + troops to die in Iraq and 30,000 to be injured in Iraq. AWOL Bushie..where's your outrage on that ?..Selective memory or Alzheimers ?

Bush was an A-hole, you got no argument from me on that. Funny you don't mention Afghanistan where the A-hole BO got more boys killed. You know the good war. I don't want to see one more American boy die for those ungrateful scum bags counties in the middle east or Africa by war or disease.

BS, BS, BS, BS and more BS. I know everybody on this blog saw this coming. The setup with the infected missionaries coming from Africa to the US, Obama claiming he is going to send troops over to combat this non threat, etc. We were all waiting for the shoe to fall. Like the Obama admin's favorite saying, We all know what it is don't we boys and girls, together now in unison; "Never let a good crisis go to waste". And I might ad, "If you don't have enough crisis' to keep everybody's attention diverted, then by all means "WHY NOT MANUFACTURE MORE!!!" The sob's in the white house are so predictable, but the "useful" idiots that are Obama's base just keep on praising him and getting lost in his BS.

No just giving everybody credit for having at least half a brain, but in your case I'll concede that you are one of the few who falls short. You are like that stupid loyal dog that keeps on getting kicked by it's owner but continues to run up and greet him when he gets home.

treefrog • 9 years ago

Loyal dog? I'll concede that. Being a loyal dog, I just wonder what being a loyal sheep feels like... Pray tell ? You listen to Ol' Rushie who insults you by calling you a "diitohead"...jeesh, you guys can't even be insulted ! He tells you to your faces/ears that you cannot think yourselves, and you come back for more. Like sheep returning to their own vomit, to turn a phrase. BTW,This dog bites !, What do sheepies do, pray tell ?, 'cept go to the slaughter. Now run along, Little Bo Peep ( Rushie ) is upset and looking for you all...You've made him a multi-millionaire, and he needs you to support his drug habits...Funny, he said the drugs made him hard of hearing...he should have gone dumb...well he is dumb, but I meant not being able to speak :)...I know, I know...what he says is music to your ears..he relies on his listeners being tone deaf, me thinks Cheerio

Lui • 9 years ago

You are such a moron, you missed the setup-the ebola ill volunteer returning from Africa, the follow through that began with sending troops over to combat ebola and now a "real" case showing up, and I reiterate a, as in one. If it is true that is. We all know what is next, even though idiots like you refuse to think it possible, Marshall law, and oops, guess what gun confiscation. Wake up and take the incense out of your brain and use it to think for once rather then to filter THC. Happy baba cushing.....stoner.

Typical liberal babble. It will be people like me that keep people like you from being the first into the ovens. History justifies my attitude while at the same time proves how stupid and idiotic you are. Can you spell Neville Chamberlain? Every Republic that has morphed into totalitarianism has taken the same steps this country is taking now. I wish I could separate the benefits of my actions from you, so you could become a victim of your own idiocy, but alas, such is not the case. You will reap the benefits from the steps that people like myself take to safeguard liberty, not because we give a shi... about your well being but by protecting ourselves we end up protecting idiots like you.

"I really do not know of what you speak".... Liberal minds usually don't. There was a study once that tried to see what the difference was between liberal and conservative minds. A lot of psychological gobly gook, but what it basically says is, a liberal would invite the terrorist who wanted to kill him into his home to try and reason things out, the conservative would just pull his sniper rifle out and take the sob out when he got within a 100 yards of him. You know, the Bush Doctrine.

Little people in your head talking to you again ? Please get help Just look at your post to which I'm replying

Classic Persecution Complex

Persecutory delusions are a delusional condition in which the affected person believes they are being persecuted. Specifically, they have been defined as containing two central elements:[1]

1) The individual thinks that harm is occurring, or is going to occur.

2) The individual thinks that the perceived persecutor has the intention to cause harm.

According to the DSM-IV-TR, persecutory delusions are the most common form of delusions in schizophrenia, where the person believes "he or she is being tormented, followed, tricked, spied on, or ridiculed."[2] In the DSM-IV-TR, persecutory delusions are the main feature of the persecutory type of delusional disorder.

I think your are pretty intelligent treefrog, but not very smart. Unfortunately intelligence does not prevent someone like you from crossing over into the insane side of reality via denial as you obviously have. As most psychotics will do, they will try to pull an over abundance of technical jargon that are irrelavent out of their rear ends to try and prove they are not insane, which ironically just proves that you are.
