Ebola Travel Bans Enacted by Nearly 30 Countries, but not the U.S.
“Why Are We The Last on Ebola Travel Ban?” ~~ Dr. Ben Carson, retired pediatric-neurosurgeon at Johns-Hopkins
Logic is dead. Excellence is punished. Mediocrity is rewarded. And dependency is to be revered. This is present-day America.
When people rob banks, they go to prison. When they rob the taxpayer, they get re-elected.
Politics is the second oldest profession in the world and it’s a lot like the first.~~ Ronald Reagan
The Crisis of Confidence
“Less than two weeks ago, the government told us that the Ebola virus couldn’t spread here. Also, the Internal Revenue Service isn’t targeting (reporters), the Islamic State is JV (junior varsity), Iraq is secure, the National Security Agency isn’t eavesdropping (on Americans), Benghazi was about a video, the economy is getting better and your can keep your health plan.
“The crisis of confidence in government has now reached epidemic levels, just in time for the government to bungle a possible actual (Ebola) epidemic.”~~ Monica Crowley, Editorial Page Editor, the Washington Times
The Ebola Fiasco: CDC’s Frieden’s Meltdown
The Ebola fiasco is can be traced right back to Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta.
When we listen to his convoluted reasoning, we wonder what planet he has been living on.
Here’s what he said about stopping citizens of West Africa from coming into our land:
“If we isolate these countries, what’s not going to happen is the disease staying there. It’s going to spread more, all over Africa and we’ll be at higher risk.”
Bill O’Reilly asked this question on the O’Reilly Factor, “Does that make any sense to anybody? It’s just ridiculous.”
Ebola travel bans have been ordered by 30 countries and two airlines, Air France and British Airways have suspended flights from the Ebola-ravished countries.
Comment: President Obama assured the American people Ebola would not come to this country. And he said if it did, the CDC would know how to control it. Neither was true.
Americans are dying because the CDC did not know how to contain the virus once it reached our shores. And I’m not sure they ever will.
The CDC has an annual budget of $6.6 billion.
Hence, we must stop all flights from West Africa to the U.S. and stop them immediately. Recent polls show the American people — by a large majority — favor the travel restrictions.
Houston Mayor Annise Parker (right) and her wife
Houston Outrage! The Rise and Fall of Democracy
Lesbian Mayor Annise Parker ordered at least five Houston, Texas-area pastors to turn over their sermons to find out what they have said about the hotly contested transgender rights ordinance, homosexuals, gender identity and about Parker. Failure to comply could find the preachers in contempt of court and they could face jail time.
She called their sermons “fair game” and her city attorney presented subpoenas to the local pastors also to turn over speeches, papers and communications with the members of their congregations.
The subpoenas are a terrible violation of these preachers’ First Amendment protections.
“The subpoenas are just the latest twist in an ongoing saga over Houston’s new non-discrimination ordinance,” Fox News reported. “The law, among other things, would allow men to use the ladies room and vice versa.”
However, according to the Houston Chronicle, opponents of the ordinance initiated a petition drive and received 50,000 signatures which was more than the 17,269 necessary to call for an election and let the people decide the issue in a referendum.
“However, things got nasty when the city attorney threw out the 50,000 signatures over alleged irregularities, Fox reported.
So, the opponents — led by a number of courageous Houston-area preachers — filed a lawsuit which now is in court. Mayor Parker responded by issuing the subpoenas.
“The city’s subpoena of sermons and other pastor communications is both needless and unprecedented,” Alliance Defending Freedom attorney Christina Holcomb said in a statement. “The city council and its attorneys are engaging in an inquisition designed to stifle any critique of its actions.”
Meanwhile, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott sent a letter to the mayor and her staff and told them to stop “bullying” Christians. He said their request for the pastors’ sermons and other documents is a serious violation of their First Amendment rights.
Reports have surfaced that Mayor Parker may rescind the subpoena orders. Story developing.
It’s Your Money
Government investigators are looking into why the U. S. Air Force only received $32,000 in scrap for 16 airplanes that cost $486 million, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The Italian-built C-27A cargo planes were purchased for the Afghan Air Force but were grounded because of lack of adequate maintenance and spare parts, theJournal said. “Including maintenance costs, the Air Force’s total tab was $596 million before officials decided to park the planes and ultimately sell them for scrap at six cents a pound.”
Comment: Question: why did the Air Force purchase planes from Italy when they could have been built in the U.S. and provide extra jobs?
Another question: why did Air Force planners not factor in maintenance personnel and spare parts?
Hummm!
Obama Executive Order: Recruit Illegals for Military
In case Report readers have not heard, back in September the Department of Defense outlined President Obama’s plan to pass an executive order to allow illegal aliens to join our military, MinuteMen News reports. The plan is to go into effect next January.
“Mr. Obama has fired 90,000 (American) soldiers and officers, some while serving in Afghanistan, while he is at the same time planning to hire illegals who broke the law to get here… MinuteMen pointed out.
“The army is at pre-1940 levels, the Marine Corps is at about 1917 levels, the Navy is at WWI levels and the Air Force is as low as it’s ever been, yet we are firing 90,000 soldiers but we can afford to hire illegals,” Minutemen pointed out.
Comment: Only Congress has the right to change the immigration law to allow the military to hire the illegals.
Also, it is a felony to arm illegals. So when all of these illegals are given weapons, they will be breaking two laws — for being in this country and bearing firearms.
Attorney General Holder Gives Gay Marriage Team Top Award
During the Annual Attorney General’s Awards Ceremony this week, Eric Holder gave the top award to the gay marriage implementation team.
The AG’s Award for Exceptional Service — the department’s highest award for employee performance — was given to the 29 people “responsible for outstanding achievement…” Minutemen News reports.
Although Congress overwhelmingly passed the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and it was signed into law by President Bill Clinton, President Obama instructed Holder not to defend the law. Two years later the Supreme Court struck it down.
“Among many others, this year’s award recipients include those who have helped lead the fight to extend equal protection, and equal rights, to our lesbian, bisexual and transgender brothers and sisters — from enforcing civil rights laws to securing a historic victory before the Supreme Court, the impact of which continues to radiate through courts and communities across the country,” Holder said at the ceremony.
Comment: When five justices of the U. S. Supreme Court voted against DOMA, they openly and willingly redefined marriage that had been the Judeo-Christian standard for more than 4,000 years. Five black-robed justices — not chosen by the people — snubbed their noses at the people of California who on two occasions voted overwhelmingly to defend traditional marriage and almost every state in the union where the voters upheld marriage laws. Now 29 states recognize same-sex marriages. And, one by one, federal judges are striking down marriage laws in the remaining states.
Franklin Graham: When Judges Overrule Will of People
Rev. Franklin Graham, son of far-famed evangelist Billy Graham, said it’s a sad day in America when federal judges overrule the express will of the American people.
“This is a democracy, and the people spoke, and we’re seeing that activist judges across the country are overturning the will of the people,” he told WCNC in Charlotte, North Carolina. “We saw that in California. We’re now seeing it here in North Carolina…”
Commentary
After the Election — Whoa! Say What?
There is so much shame in politics but the politicians no longer try to hide their deceptive agendas.
For instance, remember Bowe Bergdahl? The members of his platoon all said he deserted to the Taliban. Now the army has concluded its investigation. But it won’t announce their finding until AFTER THE ELECTION. Of course they are talking about the mid-term election on Nov. 4.
Obama vows by executive fiat to grant some form of amnesty to millions of illegal foreigners in this land, hence bypassing Congress and in violation of encoded law. But guess what? He plans to do it AFTER THE ELECTION.
A White House aide was involved in the prostitution scandal in Colombia where numbers of Secret Service agents and military personnel were caught with prostitutes. However, the White House will not announce its findings on the WH personnel until AFTER THE ELECTION.
Next year’s Obamacare premiums are expected to increase substantially but the Obama administration is keeping the increased cost in premiums a secret until AFTER THE ELECTION.
Finally, former CIA Director Leon Panetta said last week that on the night of the Benghazi attack, he told the President it was terrorists. Yet the President, Susan Rice, and Hillary Clinton for days told the American people the attack was due to an anti-Mohammed video. We can now expect a further report on the incident AFTER THE ELECTION.
Comment: The people in Washington must think WE THE PEOPLE are a bunch of suckers. Why are they hiding the truth from us until AFTER THE ELECTION? It’s quite simple. All of the above reflect on the leadership and the trustworthiness of President Obama and, hence, the democrats who are running for Congress.
For instance, Obama treated Bergdahl like royalty and even gave up five terrorists for his release. Then, it was found that, more than likely, Bergdahl was a traitor. Embarrassment to the White House — and democrats.
What about Benghazi? The President was in the midst of a reelection and had told the American people he had won the war against terrorism. So he had to concoct a story about Benghazi and the video.
Then there is Obamacare and premiums are expected to rise exponentially next year. But the White House doesn’t want WE THE PEOPLE to know because it will hurt the democrats who passed Obamacare into law.
Why is the President waiting to grant amnesty to millions of illegals? Because the vast majority of the American people oppose it and it would hurt democrats.
Hence, we will wait until AFTER THE ELECTION for Obama’s shoe to drop on you.!
