Actually, if the poor gang bangers from Central America hear there is Ebola in the U.S.A. maybe it will keep them from coming.

Imagine if Ebola was to hit the American population. Since it is spread through the exchange of body fluids, the LGBT community would have much bigger concerns than what state to go get their marriage licenses in.

Ebola is no match for basic personal hygiene. None of these scary diseases is coming to America.

It may already be here. The family of one of the doctors who has it, and was in Africa visiting him, returned to the US (Texas) on Friday.

With the southern border being little more than a sieve, it’s only a matter of time before Ebola breaks out here, too.

Thank you Democrats and leader Obama.
