August 5, 201412 yr ^^^^^^^^^ You are exactly correct. He doesn't care who he offends and tells it like it is. Way better than Hannity I don't really care for Savage. I don't like the way he trashes his competition and I don't feel like he prepares very well for his shows - as far as politics go. I do enjoy listening to the stories that he tells about his childhood. Hannity also gets on my nerves because he repeats his talking points so much. He seems like a nice guy but when I listen to him, I get the feeling that he starts his show with one hour of material and three hours of air time to fill. Mark Levin is the only national talk radio host that I listen to frequently. I listen to Rush and Laura Ingraham's shows from time to time, but I learn much more listening to Levin and the material that he covers is not necessarily driven by the day's events.
August 5, 201412 yr Author I have never heard Levin, hopefully I will pick him up on radio one day from work.
August 5, 201412 yr Author The CDC is now concerned about Ebola becoming airborne and before you dismiss it because you see infowars, read what they cover from the CDC that the other networks won't. » CDC Concerned About Airborne Transmission of Ebola Virus Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!
August 6, 201412 yr Anyone remember the Dustin Hoffman movie, Outbreak? In that movie an entire town is exposed to an "Ebola Like" virus and the Government shuts the town off and is preparing to hit it with a Fuel/Air Bomb that would level the town and kill the Virus and all of the Residents that were still alive at that point. Well in the end before they killed everyone it seems that the Government already had a cure but didn't want to use for unscrupulous reasons. Now Life imitating Art...Two Americans contract Ebola, a disease with a mortality rate of close to 90%. Both are given a secret experimental drug called ZMapp and guess what both seem to be recovering remarkably well. Three frozen vials of the drug were flown to Liberia, arriving on July 31; it is still unclear why, but initially, only one dose had thawed and Brantley reportedly offered it to Writebol. But when Brantley took a turn for the worse—"I'm going to die," he said—his doctors decided to administer the drug to him. Though Brantly and Writebol are still ill, the early signs indicate that the drug may be working. Reportedly, Brantly was improving within hours of receiving the experimental treatment and has now made a "near complete recovery" Writebol did not react immediately to the first dose of the drug, but after a second dose also began to improve. http://www.newsweek.com/possible-ebola-treatment-its-way-clinical-trials-263063

August 6, 201412 yr I think that this is something where if there were even a 1 in 500 or 1 in 1000 chance of something happening, then that wouldn't be taken. If we're looking at a risk/utility model, then getting the doctor here, studying the disease, and spurring research for a cure to this or other diseases probably greatly outweighs any risk that this spreads to another doctor, much less it spreading outside a quarantined area at one of our top research hospitals. We're not taking this chance if it's an airborne disease that people could live with before being effected. The whole point of this is to study the virus before it inadvertently travels back here (and in a much more dangerous, mutated form where the disease has evolved past the point of weakening people to the point of an immediate death before it can transport itself into another living being). The ebola virus isn't going to say, "whoa... I'm in America now, time to evolve since I'm somewhere I can really raise hell"... the evolutionary process is much, much slower than that. Evolution of diseases doesn't work like Hollywood, and comparisons to TV and film are just conceptually out there.

August 6, 201412 yr I saw an online poll...are you concerned about Ebola spreading the U.S., blah blah blah... 74% said concerned

August 6, 201412 yr Thats bizarre, 74% on this site arent concerned and think its great we brought Ebola patients here. I dont like the idea of bringing them back, however what are we to do let them die in another country, of course not.

August 6, 201412 yr People love to panic with no cause. :no: I don't really get concerned about such things but if (just if) a person catches it here from one of these two guys, there will be a public meltdown.
August 6, 201412 yr I don't really get concerned about such things but if (just if) a person catches it here from one of these two guys, there will be a public meltdown. If it get's outside of that hospital, it will be the best kept secret since who shot Kennedy! The public would not be told officially until someone else figured it out first.
