Gateway Pundit ^ | 10/19/14

Unbelievable. Troops from the 101st Airborne Division will not receive full protective Hazmat suits for their mission in West Africa. They’re being sent to West Africa – but won’t get full protective Hazmat suits.

I think MOPP IV should cover it. Hve things changed so much that the 101st gets deployed with out MOPP gear?

Didn’t they have pesticides,some gas protection, etc? Our military leaders have issues for not willing to be fired for asking for germ protection, unless Obama has actually fired the competent leadership out of existence.

As CIC, presidunce obola needs to ‘lead from the front’ on this one and not be afraid to put his immune system on the line as he is ordering thousands of US troops to do. (I say this as an ex Screaming Eagle circa 1967).

At least, when the 101st and 81st dropped in at Normandy, they were armed to the gills and could at least see, hear, feel their attackers.

This is unconscionable. The people that send them there like this should rot in hell.

No doubt you meant the 82nd....LOL.

Hopefully history will record that the person who ordered this got what he deserved.

Towards the end of the article at the link: “If a service member does get sick, Rodriguez said they will be flown home immediately for treatment.”

Yesterday’s news was they would remain in Liberia for treatment if they came down with Ebola.

Before it’s all said and done, I think history is going to be quite unkind to all the libs and their enablers of BOTH parties.

History always manages to get the truth out no matter what leftist types do to try rewriting it. And thus short of cleansing nuclear fire leaving bacteria and nothing else, the truth WILL survive us.

Where are the British troops?
The Russian troops?
The Chinese troops??
The German Troops?

How about some Brazilian troops?

Why are AMERICAN troops the only ones going to a hot zone?

You need them dead so the others listed can come here to carry out the Leftist Agenda with no local sympathies.

The stupid people in this country who believe Obama will see it has hardly spread here, so think there is no problem in Africa for our troops. One big difference is there are THOUSANDS of more infected people in a fairly small area. Chances of infection will be much greater there. This is a terrible idea.

I’ve concluded that the people do not understand where to go to express their anger... Anger is too soft a word... Disgust, hatred, fury, loathing against this government is more appropriate. DC is too far away for most. That is the head of the snake but the snake’s body extends all across the country. Going is essential. The snake no longer hears our calls or reads our messages. There are at least 535 branches of the snake in local congressional and senatorial offices. If people start showing up in those locations in force I think the snake would feel the pinch pretty soon.

I’ve written that a friend of mine, and now a citizen, who is from Turkey asked why Americans don’t riot.

I’ve concluded that not enough have ever experienced a dry well to be concerned enough to riot. You see it in their actions. They believe that the prosperity they have had will come again. They believe that where the money they have now will continue to provide. I am not so sanguine. I have experienced enough of being without to know it can come at any time.

When does the punishment begin? Guilty or not the message is important. We need to send a message.

A battle cry is necessary... Protect Americans from Ebola... we demand it. Secure the borders against all invaders, this is a crisis, treat it like one. Politics don’t belong here.

Someone with more flair for the dramatic and concise than me needs to come up with a battle cry.

That might offend someone who is black to think that they are somehow inferior.
