Ebola sends Obama to DEFCON ONE. Fundraiser canceled. Cabinet meets.
Red State ^ | 10-15-2014 | streiff

President Barack Obama has canceled a trip to New Jersey and Connecticut and will instead hold a meeting about Ebola at the White House.

“The president’s travel today to New Jersey and Connecticut has been postponed,” the president’s Press Secretary said in a statement. “Late this afternoon, the president will convene a meeting at the White House of cabinet agencies coordinating the government’s response to the Ebola outbreak.”

That’s right. Obama has cancelled a fundraiser. When the US Consulate in Benghazi was sacked and our ambassador killed, what did Obama do?

According to the public schedule of the president, the last time the Obama attended his daily intelligence meeting was Sept. 5 — a week before Islamist radicals stormed our embassy in Cairo and terrorists killed our ambassador to Tripoli. The president was scheduled to hold the intelligence meeting at 10:50 a.m. Wednesday, the day after the attacks, but it was canceled so that he could comfort grieving employees at the State Department — as well he should. But instead of rescheduling the intelligence briefing for later in the day, Obama apparently chose to skip it altogether and attend a Las Vegas fundraiser for his re-election campaign. One day after a terrorist attack

#77 They had to start a 747 up and get more information about the massive attack in New York city.

obama would have delayed the flight to get in another round of golf. That is assuming he would have done anything about the attack and I assume he would not.

Ebola mortality rate not enough to keep those libs from voting, but they do tend to contribute alot less after they have reached room temperature.

Ann Coulter just released a column today with the title”

“We’ll tell you how dangerous Ebola is after the election”

Oh man, what a perfect title. That is SOOOOO damn true, just think about that: How much information is this administration withholding from the public because of the election? This is a administration that allowed terrorists to kill 4 Americans including a US Ambassador because of an election. That should scare every last person to the bone.

When it comes to government there is always two sides - What they allow you to know and what they are hiding and they are always hiding something no matter what the subject. I have a feeling we are effed big time, this time the danger isn’t passing. Next time you meet someone who voted for Obama twice, knock them out.

Well, a black nurse got infected.

So, it’s someone he cares about.

When it was just a Vietnamese nurse, he didn’t care.

You are so right. They are keeping the really nasty truth out of sight until after the election. I bet the whole apartment full of Duncan’s peeps are dead or dying. Cost is probably in the millions by now. Lots of other bad stuff that they won’t probably ever let us know.

My in-laws are all dem voters. Bunch of state union brain-washed dems. Somehow the dem gene didn’t get to my husband. He’s as conservative as I am.

Yes, they all voted for O’Bola, twice. Also tried to recall Gov. Scott Walker.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

I also read the weather was horrible so he couldn’t fly.

Oh really? That would certainly change the script.
