Obama Considering Ebola Czar, Still Opposed to Travel Ban

They cried out for a king

President Barack Obama said he was considering appointing an Ebola "czar" to coordinate the fight against the virus in the United States, but he remained opposed to a ban on travel from West Africa.

Obama's administration is facing sharp criticism from lawmakers over its efforts to contain the disease at home. Obama authorized calling up military reservists for the U.S. fight against Ebola in West Africa on Thursday.

Nu-uh. He will not enact a travel ban but is planning on sending non-medical military personnel to "fight" a virus? Unpossible. A human being can not be this stupid.

Worse, not only can a human be that stupid, but there were enough people who thought he was brilliant to get him elected President of the United States.
