Congressman Joe Wilson: Hamas terrorists might infect themselves with Ebola and sneak into U.S.

You high?

If the words “Congressman Joe Wilson” ring a bell, it’s probably not because you remember, say, his authorship of the Business Expensing Act of 2003. Instead, you’ll recall him as the South Carolina conservative who shouted “You lie!” after President Obama declared in a September 2009 address to Congress that health reform would not provide coverage for unauthorized immigrants. Five years later, he’s still worried about who’s coming across the border, and this time, he fears it could be Ebola-infected Hamas terrorists.

In a video posted by BuzzFeed’s Andrew Kaczynski, a constituent asked Wilson at an event Thursday about the possibility of Ebola patients entering the U.S. via Mexico.

Calling it “hypothetical,” Wilson replied, “I’m very concerned. We had people who, I’ll repeat it, the creed of Hamas: ‘We value death more than you value life. What? That’s their creed.’”

Secure that southern border!

Classic Plan B thinking...if Wilson is able to imagine, -he- is sure that Hamas is PLANNING to do it.
