I bet ebola is caused by some of Saddam's chemical weapons. Probably hid them there, before the invasion. If that's true then Cheney knows all about it. I bet he hasn't been to Liberia. Put 2 and 2 together.....

We must remember that Obama is a black activist. By training and by experience, his entire life has been spent fighting for black causes. His legacy is at stake and he will take any measures possible to be seen as protecting Africans. Everything he is doing is related to the slavery of Africans and the fight against it. The rest of us are pretty far down the list of priorities.

I get that Liberia needs help. Not just because they a dirt poor nation but because in this particular situation with Ebola, so goes Liberia...so goes the rest of the world. Until the disease is contained and stopped there, the risk of it getting out and becoming the "big one" remains very high. I get the US sending medical aid, Liberia does not have the resources (gowns, masks, gloves, booties and the all the other things needed to protect health workers from infectious disease) to handle this and that means it becomes the worlds problem. That said, this is a situation where the UN should be stepping up and in to the rush to contain this threat. The president/dictator/whatever they have there said they need at least 85,000 body bags to deal with the current situation. Think about that....85,000 body bags to contain the dead in a small African nation where villages are so far apart that previous Ebola outbreaks flared up, killed everyone and died out without spreading because it kills so fast and because of the isolation of the villages. Consider now what would happen if you had one infected person, who didn't know they had Ebola, in any American city, even small ones.

We are still waiting to see if Dallas will be ground zero here in the US, and if we escape that threat, imagine the danger that this disease really represents. It could literally wipe out all of America in a matter of weeks. The UN should be on top of this but they aren't because every country in the world is busy trying to protect themselves which is fine but so goes Liberia... So goes the world.

My biggest fear is that the sheer crippling effect that Ebola has had on the US hasn't been lost on our enemies.
