Nailed it.

 

I call it like I see it.

Just when you thought he might start making sound choices and fly right. He picks a career politician with zero HC experience . He might be polling in the 20's by the time he leaves office . Sometimes I think he's intelligent , just opposite me politically , then he makes a stupid move like this . Unreal.

Every

Barack

Obama

Lie is

Agonizing

can delete , didnt see other thread

Obama lied , people died ?

And the new Ebola Czar's first act will be...mandated experimental Ebola vaccines for everyone! And mountain ref is first in line!:lol2:

How important is it to have someone with a healthcare background in what appears to be a made up role for a buddy of his?

 

I don't think it's made up; he needed someone he trusted to gather all the information coming in from every executive agency working on this, pare it down, and bring it all to him in a useful way. That's what this guy is for. He's been chief of staff to a couple influential people and that job is nothing but taking in massive quantities of information all day then paring it down to the most important stuff to take to the guy you work for.

 

This guy isn't supposed to do the CDC's job. He's not supposed to do the INS's job. He's not supposed to do the Department of Homeland Security's job. He IS supposed to gather all the information from those agencies and present it to the president as often as possible in a useful way.

Like a fine community organizer ?

I hope he's not like the stiff -- Brownie? -- that recent President Bush installed for the Hurricane Katrina disaster.

Highly disappointed. He should have appointed Mnt. Ref, as he knows everything! lol jk

And now he will report to Suzzane Rice.

 

That should help over in Africa (not). Ms. Rice is pretty well hated in Africa.

So...........in other words, how many bureaucrats does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Sure. If you like.

 

There's a lot of politics being played on the right on this one (Ted Cruz connecting Ebola to a southern border issue is pretty insulting to the intelligence of the American electorate but no one's ever lost an election doing that), so he needs some advice on how to handle this politically as well.

 

But the overall "U.S. response" to this crisis will be primarily a foreign policy issue, which also means co-ordination with the State department and NGOs as we here in the States have doctors, equipment, and money that are sorely needed by countries in West Africa to end the crisis there.

 

There's a lot of coordination and information gathering to be done. That's what this guy can do well.

Whatever..............it's all politics and pandering.

Isn't the reason Obama does not want to stop flights into the US is because he thinks that people with Ebola will try to sneak into the country?
