Nobody could game out the fact that disease control would end up being a political football during an election season. The in-party is desperate to keep the election losses to a minimum and let's that decide their actions and nothing else.
If this gets really bad, this is beyond "impeachment" and goes on to actual treason with a hangman's noose.
The problem with that is that congress isn't doing anything, at all.
Obama is doing some limp-wristed, weak ass measures. More security at airports, etc.
But congress, who has tons of power to initiate all sorts of overnight bills on things, has decided to focus on re-election for this month, then holiday break, then inauguration - and THEN think about ISIS plan in Syria and any Ebola response.
If this isn't an election years, I'm betting congress is working much more, to initiate a bill on closing border to planes from that region. Then they DARE obama or the dems to say no to it, so the ebola outbreak can have a (D) next to it lol. Obama will be forced to sign anything the repubs throw at him.
So while obama sucks, he's illegal, he should have been impeached years ago for fast & furious if repubs had anything resembling a nutsack, I have to blame congress for this also.
