Fox News Analyst: Obama Actually Welcomes Ebola To The U.S. Because His "Affinities" Are With Africa

Fox Doc's Racial Rant: Obama Welcomes Ebola Because His "Affinities" Are With Africa


Fox News contributor Keith Ablow went on an unhinged racial rant against President Obama, accusing him of failing to protect the country against Ebola because his "affinities, his affiliations are with" Africa and "not us ... He's their leader." Ablow also compared America to a hostage with Stockholm Syndrome, electing a man who dislikes the country and "has names very similar to two of our archenemies, Osama, well, Obama. And Hussein."

Ablow, a member of Fox News' "Medical A-Team," appeared on the October 14 edition of Fox News Radio's The John Gibson Show. He had previously written a column alleging that President Obama is not forcefully confronting Ebola and helping calm fears about the disease because he "may literally believe we should suffer along with less fortunate nations."

<...>

He continued, speculating that the president believes America shouldn't be immune to Ebola when "others are suffering, when we are a bad people." As evidence of Obama's supposed anti-Americanism, Ablow cited "the apology tour, having heard his wife say, you know, when they were campaigning that she hadn't been proud of America until her husband was, you know, had his sights set on the presidency. With him, you know, attending a church where the pastor said 'God Damn America' and the rest of it. It all fits, doesn't it? ... How can you protect a country you don't like? Why would you?"

Africa

Bush initiated the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief Program (PEPFAR). The U.S. government has spent some $44 billion on the project since 2003 (a figure that includes $7 billion contributed to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria, a multilateral organization), saving an estimated 5 million lives.[310] According to New York Times correspondent Peter Baker, "Bush did more to stop AIDS and more to help Africa than any president before or since."
