“A new TV ad blames prominent Republicans for Ebola deaths, attacking them for championing spending cuts that have gone after emergency public health funding for containing disease outbreaks.
The one minute ad, called “Republican Cuts Kill,” splices grueling images of body bags and workers in hazmat suits with footage of top Republicans like Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (KY) and House Speaker John Boehner (OH) calling for spending cuts. It also features 2014 Republican Senate candidates Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Cory Gardner of Colorado, Tom Cotton of Arkansas and Pat Roberts of Kansas.
The spot was produced by the Agenda Project Action Fund, the same progressive group that has made controversial anti-Republican ads such as “Granny Off the Cliff.” The group’s spokeswoman, Erica Payne, said Monday the ad would air in Kentucky, North Carolina, South Dakota and Kansas — all of which feature competitive Senate races that could swing the majority.”

Bobby Jindal:"..Our Constitution states that the federal government “shall protect each of [the States] against Invasion”—
-a statement that should apply as much to infectious disease as to foreign powers.
So when that same government prioritizes funding for jungle gyms and bike paths
over steps to protect our nation from possible pandemics, citizens have every right to question the decisions that got us to this point. "
"In her speech, Secretary Clinton said, “too often our health care debates are clouded by ideology, rather than illuminated by data.”
I couldn’t agree more. But in this case, the data show not that the CDC faced a lack of funding, but misplaced priorities
for that funding based on choices made by the Obama administration."
Now we know where all that money came from to fund "Let's Move", and Michelle's "Healthy School Lunch Program", and the White House garden, etc..
Too bad they didn't see the Entrovirus-68 invasion ,illegal immigrants, or Ebola coming ,..Oh ? They did ?
Imagine my surprise ! ...NOT !!
