Our constant USA #1 patriotism is coming back to bite us, that's what.

I think it's a President who feels judpstblike you about America that is deliberately biting us:

"See Daddy, I've done good this time right? I did it for you" it's like the man is starring on a freakin' remake of Psycho.

Jesus.

I'm the one who lives near Reston hospital, and I am worried because my dd's have asthma. My 8 year old has been sick with a virus for 2 weeks, and has spent the last 3 nights coughing. If I have to take her to the hospital for breathing difficulties, I would normally take her to Reston. If a passenger with ebola flies into Dulles, then there we would be. Right in an ebola hospital. I call that a reason for concern. If you don't think so, you are deluding yourself.

They need somewhere to treat people close to the airport. Every hospital is going to be inconvenient to some of its neighbors. If you are worried, pick a back up hospital.

Not the PP, but the closest hospital is imperative for an asthmatic who is having breathing issues --including bad coughing. If I cough more than 2 times in a row, I know I am at risk for an attack. If I have an attack, I'd been in trouble to travel more than. 10 min to an ER.

Of couse you do! My daughter is asthmatic and so a. I. Why this PP thinks a non-citizen should have rights over a citizen shows the delusional thinking of Obamabots

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.

Only two people were infected here. OOthers came home after being infected elsewhere and Duncan who was also infected elsewhere. And the two were infected in one hospital. No medical workers have been infected at any of the other facilities treating people with Ebola.

Just watched the Brianna Aguirre interview w Matt Lauer. Holy shit. She didn't treat Duncan but apparently treated Nina Pham for 2 days. You'd think that Nina Pham becoming infected AFTER Duncan's death, the hospital may have gotten its shit together. Apparently not. Apparently even with patient no. 2 (Nina) -- nurses were using tape around their necks to "make" a full suit, medical waste wasn't picked up for 2 full days and was apparently also in receptacles (hopefully) in hallways that nurses and CDC were walking up and down without full suits or gloves or boots. CDC didn't think to say ''hey what are these gowns -- why are they out here?"

Seems like Amber Vinson was sick before she got on the second flight -- now they think she was sick when she left Dallas are reaching out to people on the first flight.

I think you meant to say "within the last 21 days". It would seem impossible unlikely for someone to come from W. African, commit a crime and end up in jail all in under 24 hours.

Unless they were detained pending an immigration hearing. A prior criminal deportee would be detained in such circumstances. DHS compensates local jails for housing detainees awaiting an immigration hearing.

So we are readying reserves, not deploying them yet.

Has it occurred to you that we're a much bigger country with a much larger population than the countries in Europe or in Africa?
