Obama, Two Weeks Ago: 'Chances of an Ebola Outbreak Here ... Extremely Low'
The Weekly Standard ^ | 9/3o/14 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 09/30/2014 9:11:10 PM PDT by Nachum

President Obama, addressing the ebola outbreak September 16, 2014 at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta:

First and foremost, I want the American people to know that our experts, here at the CDC and across our government, agree that the chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. We’ve been taking the necessary precautions, including working with countries in West Africa to increase screening at airports so that someone with the virus doesn’t get on a plane for the United States. In the unlikely event that someone with Ebola does reach our shores, we’ve taken new measures so that we’re prepared here at home. We’re working to help flight crews identify people who are sick, and more labs across our country now have the capacity to quickly test for the virus. We’re working with hospitals to make sure that they are prepared, and to ensure that our doctors, our nurses and our medical staff are trained, are ready, and are able to deal with a possible case safely.

Always remember that the first thing Obama says is always a lie.

The chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. We’ve been taking the necessary steps to import infected persons and disperse them around the country.

I saw on the late news here in TX the ambulance, and the crew which transported Patient Zero are in quarantine now.

Hussein only votes “present” about 40% of the time, so how would he know anything?

Safety first. But it shows how dangerous this is, and the reckless depraved indifference Obama has for the U.S.

Joe Wilson was absolutely correct! The whole Republican side should stand up and say, "YOU LIE!" every time Obama speaks. We have another two years of this inept president. The country will not survive unless more stand up to him. It is their responsibility to do so. We elected them to be there FOR US!

I just went back on the DVR, the ambulance which had red tape all around it had Dallas Fire and Rescue on it, and had the number 37 on it.

Since the person was transported on the 28th, and the quarantine began today, that means the ambulance possibly transported other patients after Patient Zero, right?

Is there any doubt that this is the DemonRAT’s October Surprise? It’s more than plausible that hussein orchestrated the infested African to spread Ebola in Texas. He wants to wipe out the Conservatives here to swing the congress his way. The hussein/holder/jarrett evil trio has been dreaming of white genocide for years and now they’re implementing it. The knockout game was just the start. This is their Hiroshima.

You know what I would’ve *liked* to have heard from my president?

“There is a significant chance that, eventually, the United States will have a case of Ebola. My administration, while working closely with the CDC, is doing everything that we can to mitigate that possibility. [proceed to innumerate the actions being taken to prevent Ebola from crossing our borders...]

“In addition, our medical system is working around the clock to prepare for that scenario. If... and I do mean *if*... this virus manages to get through our first line of defense, the medical professionals are prepared to deal with it.

“We are not ignoring this very serious threat.”

I would’ve felt pretty confident in a statement like that.
