MNGOP Slams Al Franken on Ebola, But a Bigger Question Remains...



Just when we thought political mailers had hit rock bottom, we find the above image floating around the internet.

It comes from the Republican Party of Minnesota, which is trying hard to make the Ebola virus a top issue for this year's Senate race against incumbent Dem Al Franken. GOP candidate Mike McFadden has argued that a ban on travel between West African countries, where the virus has already killed thousands, and the United States is the best way to contain it.



They have to resort to this, because McFadden has nothing.

Been waiting for this type of shit to start. Look no further than Norm Coleman and his group. This is their trade mark. Remember Krotch Brothers have huge refining interests in Minnesota the likes of Flint Hill in St Paul Park,Wrenshaw near Coshasset,Embridge Pipe Lines,part and parcel of the proposed XL pipe. Right on cue. If you think United Health is going to support Al,think again and it ain't going to happen in our life time. Typical GOP scare campaign with a week to go.
