Majority Wants Ebola Travel Restrictions

by JASmius



A majority of Americans care less about being smeared as "racists" than about not wanting to die, and/or have to watch their loved ones die, of ebola?

How about that?:

A big majority of Americans now say they're in favor of restricting entry to the United States to people from countries hardest-hit by the Ebola virus, a new poll shows.

The ABC News/Washington Post poll finds 67% of respondents support restricted entry; 29% opposed the travel curbs on those arriving from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, where 4,000 people have died from the hemorrhagic fever. 
91% of adults in the survey said they want "stricter screening of people entering the United States who have been in African countries affected by the outbreak."

The survey also found 33% think the United States is doing all it reasonably can do to try to prevent further cases of Ebola here, while 64% say it should do more. [emphases added]

Looks like that Donk ad smearing the GOP as the "party of ebola" isn't getting much traction, huh?  Ditto the risible bull[BLEEP] the Regime is peddling to justify keeping the door wide open for ebola to flood the United States.

We know how much polls matter to congressional Democrats right about now.  I guess we'll also soon see how much they matter to the Obama White House.  Because if The One does not heed and bow to this overwhelming public pressure to put the health and lives of the American people ahead of his blind-guide leftwing extremist ideological zealotry, after and on top of all the serial outrages, illegalities, tyrannical power grabs, and extended middle fingers stretching back over the past year and beyond all the way to the ObamaCare cram-down, the Republicans will "run the table" on November 4th, and I believe, for the first time, that impeachment, conviction, and removal of Barack Obama from office may actually enter the realm of possibility.

So go ahead, Barry.  Make our day....



....because if the choice is between your presidency and our lives, we pretty clearly choose our lives.

You might even say that...."we are the ones we've been waiting for".

lol I have to applaud the poll that states :"....the biggest differences are by education, income and race. Among people who have a postgraduate degree, just 20 percent are worried that they or an immediate family member might catch the Ebola virus. That rises to 32 percent of those with an undergraduate degree and to 50 percent among all those who lack a college degree – peaking at 62 percent of those who don’t have a high school diploma" So the fear mongering strictly puts this blog in the non HS diploma category...see page 2 and thanks for the laugh of the day :)

So, the anonymous commenter says that we are fear-mongering. Common Sense says hope for the best, but plan for the worst. Is the commenter saying that Ebola cared about education in West Africa? Did Ebola care about the education level of the nurse that was infected in Dallas? I agree, we should not be panicking in a hysterical manner, but that does not mean we should completely ignore the potential dangers.
