"And fellow Americans, I believe them, now shut up, because the experts are smarter than you, and I am smarter than them."
Yesterday, Barack Obama, as he has done as a PRINCIPLE for every bad
decision he has made, DOUBLED DOWN to prove he is sure about what he is
doing.
He maintains, with these experts that imposing a a BAN on travel INTO
THE USA from West Africa, cannot be done, and will make things worse.
As if we cannot get ANY AID WE CAN, IN ANY FORM, IN 6-8 hours, from
the USA to West Africa if we stop people from Sierra Leone, etc, from
having a contagion holiday in the USA.
This is, as it always has been a counter common sense, specious,
argument, whose FAILURE to be articulated in any logical manner to
ANYONE (let alone the people) once again shows us that the distance
between the citizens and the political class is FAR GREATER than the
generated differences of the top 1% of income - an inequality (which of
course, won’t help them with a virus contact, will it?).
I had thought Barack Obama would just be a slightly more left of
center Clinton, but he is an authority freak who is always arrogantly
certain HE knows better than anyone else, once he makes up his mind
based on a brisk debate of solipsoid nature. How far left he is becomes
the SECONDARY problem.
The incompetent arrogance, impossible decisions made too late to
make the impact needed IF CORRECT, and failure to make any case to the
American people followed by INSISTENCE that he is correct are a danger
to the nation.
We ARE ABLE to stop incoming travel as we need from West Africa, on a
temporary basis, while providing military, medical, food, shelter or
ANY OTHER epidemiological aid compulsory to END the outbreak in Africa.
The idea is to NOT have an outbreak here while achieving that end, or BELIEVE ME, outbound aid WILL STOP.
To pretend otherwise makes it impossible to credit this govt in any
decision they make, and this suppurating, growing, eroding anger and
cynical disregard of what the govt now says, and in fact belief in the
OPPOSITE of what they say is CORRODING the faith of the nation IN our
ability to govern ourselves.
Jan 23, 2017 REMAINS a long way off.
"It would be easier to trust appeals for calm if officials
didn’t act as if it is absurd to fear a pathogen that liquefies
organs."
