Obama says Ebola travel ban could make things worse

Over 100 visas are handed out everyday in Africa. How is infecting America with Ebola going to help Africa?

"We can't just cut ourselves off from West Africa," Obama said, explaining it would make it harder to move health workers and supplies into the region, and would motivate people trying to get out the region to evade screening, making it harder to track cases.

So we should send them here so we can track them? What bullshit! We could send doctors and nurses there who want to help out with the understanding they would be quarantined for a period of time when they came back. To allow people from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea to travel here willy-nilly (like Duncan) is shear lunacy.

Beyond the pale.  Ron Klain appointed Ebola czar. His medical background? He once cut his finger and applied a band-aid. Why is the head of the AMA a doctor instead of a plumber? To Barry this IS a crisis… but a political one. So what to do? Hire a spin-doctor. 

Would you have expected anything less?

President Barack Obama on Saturday urged Americans to avoid hysteria over Ebola, and played down the idea of travel bans from Ebola-ravaged countries in West Africa, explaining that restrictions could make things worse.

Lawmakers this week urged Obama to bar people from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea from entering the United States. Obama has said he is not philosophically opposed to travel bans, but in his weekly address made it clear that he is not leaning toward them.

"We can't just cut ourselves off from West Africa," Obama said, explaining it would make it harder to move health workers and supplies into the region, and would motivate people trying to get out the region to evade screening, making it harder to track cases.

"Trying to seal off an entire region of the world - if that were even possible - could actually make the situation worse," he said. 

Obama said it would take time to fight the disease, warning "before this is over, we may see more isolated cases here in America."

But he sought to put the disease in perspective, reminding Americans that only three cases have been diagnosed in the country, and that it is not easily contracted.

"What we're seeing now is not an 'outbreak' or an 'epidemic' of Ebola in America," he said.

"This is a serious disease, but we can't given in to hysteria or fear."

Barry attacks FOX...again

Video 93

Uncle Jim is a little "stubborn" because he listens to FOX. That's correct. If he truly wasn't interested in what's really going on he would be listening to ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC. 

These are two excellent examples of bias reporting through omission... two of many. 

 You Won't Believe This One 

 The chickens DID come home to roost 

Have you ever heard a peep about either one of these stories from the MSM? 

This one is a little more recent.

What was the final outcome on Bergdhal? Looks like he doesn’t want to own up to another disaster before the mid-term election. Where's the MSM?

 I was waiting for him to say...because you know we ALWAYS kiss your ass.

GWYNETH PALTROW DAZED BY OBAMA: 'YOU'RE SO HANDSOME THAT I CAN'T SPEAK PROPERLY'

 Gwyneth and Barry are on the same wave length. This is the same b**ch who referred to her impending divorce as a "conscious uncoupling" which dovetails perfectly with how an act of terror becomes "workplace violence" emanating from the ScandalDome. 

You see…you really can put lipstick on a pig.

On Thursday, Oscar winning Actress Gwyneth Paltrow concluded her introductory remarks about President Obama at a star studded fundraiser held in the backyard of her upscale Brentwood home in Los Angeles, saying that she was turning the microphone over to him because "you're so handsome that I can't speak properly."

Paltrow's adoration of the President was palpable, according to a press pool report. She told Obama that "I am one of your biggest fans, if not the biggest… It would be wonderful if we were able to give this man all of the power that he needs to pass the things that he needs to pass" she said.

(Not to worry Gwyneth Hugo will be delivering his Declaration of Amnesty decree right after the election)

Democratic National Committee officials affirmed that there were 200 supporters at the reception and 50 supporters attending the dinner. Tickets for the reception started at $1,000, dinner started at $15,000. Julia Roberts, Bradley Whitford, and Paltrow's two children, Apple and Moses, were present at the event.

Paltrow cited that sustainable energy efforts, as well as Obama's push for equal pay, were very important to her as a working mother.

Obama gave much of his standard fundraiser speech – "tumult" overseas that includes ISIS, Russia, and Ebola, about which he said, "I want to assure everybody that the likelihood of an epidemic here in the United States is extraordinarily small, but there's a humanitarian crisis that's happening right now in West Africa where children not much older, and in some cases younger than, Apple and Moses are dying on the streets alone."

Obama boasted of 55 months of uninterrupted job growth, investments in energy, the success of Obamacare – "and yet people remain anxious."

The President asserted that, "Most of the gains in our economy go to the folks who are in this lovely yard—and the average person has not seen their wages or incomes go up in the last 20 years."

He said that Democrats have a "congenital disease": 

"A, we get depressed too easily, and B, we're terrible at paying attention to midterm elections."

He forgot C, you have an asshole for a president.

Quick... someone get her a vibrator!

This fits Barry to a tee

Investigator claims he was told to delay Secret Service prostitution report until after election

Nieland added that his superiors told him “to withhold and alter certain information in the report of investigation because it was potentially embarrassing to the administration.”

Barry can't blame FOX for this one.

If it was Bush this would be front page news.

This is just one more con job perpetrated by this administration. They always find a way to deflect responsibility by withholding and altering the facts.

 Deception is the art of the game. Benghazi anyone? Why do you think Barry's "Declaration of Amnesty" won't be declared until after the mid-terms? Because if he announced it now the Dem's would certainly lose the senate. It's also the reason why terrorist attacks on US soil are labeled workplace violence. Good thing the Tsarnaev brothers were unemployed. What was the final outcome on Bergdhal? Why was the employer mandate delayed? The mile high... mile wide IRS.. scandal. Anyone in jail yet? Of course not!

 It's all about protecting Barry and his ilk.

One thing for sure he can always count on the stupidity of the electorate.

The lead investigator into the Secret Service prostitution scandal told Senate staffers that he was directed to delay the release of the report until after the 2012 election, according to a published report. 

According to The Washington Post, David Nieland also said that he was instructed by his superiors in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) inspector general's office to "withhold and alter certain information in the report of investigation because it was potentially embarrassing to the administration." He likely gave the account to aides on the Senate homeland security committee, which had looked into the case. 

The Post also reported that senior White House aides were given information suggesting that a prostitute had stayed in the hotel room of a member of the White House's advance team, contrary to earlier denials that any member of the administration was involved. 

Nearly two dozen Secret Service agents were disciplined or fired as part of the scandal, which began when Secret Service agents brought prostitutes into their hotel in Cartagena, Colombia ahead of President Obama's trip to the Summit of the Americas in April 2012. The Post reports that the Secret Service twice shared the findings of its own internal investigation with top White House officials, who concluded that the advance team member had done nothing wrong. 

Charles Edwards, the Department of Homeland Security's acting inspector general at the time of the investigation, told the Senate staffers that any changes to the report were part of the editing process, a statement that was backed by White House spokesman Eric Schultz.

"As the bipartisan Senate investigation found ... changes made to the IG Report were 'part of the ordinary process of editing the report' and found that allegations that changes were made because they were embarrassing could not be substantiated," Schultz said in a statement late Wednesday. 

The White House advance team member has been identified as Jonathan Dach, then a 25-year-old Yale Law School student and volunteer who helped to coordinate drivers for the White House travel office. The Post reports that Dach has repeatedly denied bringing prostitutes to his hotel room. Prostitution is legal in parts of Colombia, including in Cartagena. 

Dach's father is a prolific Democratic donor and currently works in the Obama administration, in the Department of Health and Human Services. 

The DHS inspector general's office conducted its own investigation into the scandal at the request of a subcommittee of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. Nieland told staffers that Edwards had asked him to remove references to Dach in their report after Edwards had briefed then-Homeland Security secretary Janet Napolitano on the advance team member's possible involvement. A spokesman for Napolitano denied that she had asked for the report to be altered or delayed.

(You know that's a fu**ing lie)

Nieland and two other members of the office later claimed that they were put on administrative leave for questioning the changes to the report, claims that The Post reports their superiors denied.  

A White House official told Fox News that the inspector general's report did say that a "reported member of the White House staff and/or advance team ...  had personal encounters with female Colombia nationals consistent with the misconduct reported," though Dach was not identified by name. 

This fits Barry to a tee
