Ebola petition for travel bans almost at 40,000

I don’t have a lot of faith in these petitions. While I did sign it, I think it is Obama’s way of saying his administration is “transparent.” It took the WH several months to respond to the petition on the Marine jailed in Mexico. And, the response was weak - just standard stuff. Lots of platitudes. 
One thing I will say - yesterday this petition had only a couple thousand signatures so it is evident there are a lot of people interested in seeing bans.

They said there's no direct flights here from the affected countries in Africa. The people first have to fly through Europe. Now I can see why they haven't done this...it sounds like a monumental, if not impossible task.

This is why we HAVE passports, visas, Immigration, Customs, etc. etc. If we asked all our allies in the UN to join us in a travel ban, I am sure it would happen. They can't fight this without us.[/quote]
What about flights from Texas? [/quote]

Been there, done that with that joke.  It's so yesterday. [/quote]
