Good questions. There isn’t much to do up in Ft. Kent. I wonder if her CDC gig is complete.
If anyone should get Ebola in the this country it should be her.

ROFL...is the lawyer going to lose business because no one wants to come around him
Yes, she might not have a job to go back to if she keeps this up. Or her "community" is her bf's neighbors might have given her the what for.
Yup. She defied quarantine because it was political for her, the public health be damned.
I went to twitter to see the latest on Ebola. Up pops a comment about #alexfromtarget spreading faster than Ebola.
Some poor dude is just doing his job and in a few hours has over 400k tweets about him.
Social media is a hoot..poor boy.
” #alexfromtarget “
Who is that?
it’s just some kid doing his job and now he is trending all over twitter in all kinds of countries.
Someone posted a pic of him bagging the items and it has gone viral.
LOL. Apparently nothing is going on in the world.
The same with the Maine governor.
______________
The Maine Governor is a terrific conservative.
She was threatened.My bet.
We have a winner . . . selfish/arrogant/narcissistic little horse’s backside. Hope she enjoys being less employable and rejected by her neighbors.
I saw that. It’s too funny.
