...if you’re not a passport-holding U.S. citizen, and you are a resident of the hot zone, we should not allow you in until you’ve been 21 days outside of that hot zone somewhere else, because it reduces our marginal risk of an additional case. That’s just common sense to me. Am I right?
BC: You’re exactly right. I mean, you don’t even have to be a medical expert to recognize that. I mean, that’s such basic knowledge. And you know, many of the African countries have shut off their borders to people coming from the infected areas.

This is what I find appalling. This is not specialist knowledge. Isolating the area of infection has been common practice since the 13th century. It is not racist, the Africans are doing it to themselves. It is not xenophobic. It is common knowledge.

It takes a special type of stubborn, insular, blindered, politically-obsessed arrogance to state, as the administration has, that they know better, and that the only important thing in all of this is to look good and blame other people. That appears to be this administration's core competency and its only one.

For Pete’s sake, we just found out tonight that Obama has been aiding ISIS all along. Why in the world would you think that Obama cares about protecting US citizens?

He has been conning us on everything.

A friend of mine who works in Washington says it's common knowledge Obama never takes any advice of any of his advisors especially from the military. He says he is so arrogant it's unreal, like he feels he knows everything so he does whatever the hell he wants which is why there are these constant massive F ups. You ever hear Mike Bloomberg saying Obama is the most arrogant person he has ever met in his life? This coming from a guy who is as arrogant as it gets, so you can imagine how arrogant Obama is......
