Apparently one Fox news host would be okay with building essentially FEMA camps now so long as they

are used for anyone thought to have ebola. You can't make this stuff up.


http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/10/fox-news-host-proposes-ebola-quarantine-centers-for-every-city-in-the-us/

Fox News contributor and former actress Stacey Dash on Monday called on the federal government to establish facilities in every U.S. city where suspected Ebola patients could be quarantined.

On the Monday edition of Outnumbered, host Harris Faulkner noted that the “government is really letting us down” because no one had been appointed to fill the role of surgeon general, and the CDC director was forced to do two jobs.

“I don’t care what party you are, you’ve got to get your stuff together,” she said. “We need a surgeon general. We need a pinpoint person. Look, from both sides of the political aisle this weekend, they started saying, where is this person?”

said something negative about guns and was then blocked by the NRA branch of the GOP?

So much GOP obstruction, so little time to keep tract of it all.

One of these idiots spouts off this nonsense - retaliate with their magical mythical FEMA camps.

when something makes them piss in the pants scared.

The difference in conservative and liberals is not the SIZE of the government or the amount their government costs but what they spend it on. When you understand that you stop voting Republican.

I see nothing wrong with likely not to be used Ebola centers! but that sure sounds expensive. How big a tax cut for the rich will be needed to pay for it?

That talking point is fuel to the fire for the RW conspiracy nuts - no accident she said it.

I've seen this as established fact from FB friends. Apparently Jesse Ventura has already "established" this.

would be a bit too conservative for Rudy. Perhaps they could come up with a new style?
