Frieden: You can GIVE – but not GET – Ebola on a bus. WTF? Is this guy high?

Also on hold until after the election. The results of the Army’s investigation into Bowe Bergdahl… because Obama doesn’t want Americans learning he traded for a deserter until after they vote.

STOP THE PRESSES! PRESIDENT OBAMA CANCELLED TODAY’S FUNDRAISING TRIP! Wow, who thought that would ever happen? The Ebola virus has done something only golf ever managed to do: capture the man’s attention.

Ebola nurse’s boyfriend admitted to Texas Presbyterian for monitoring. He works at Alcon, a medical company specializing in eye care products. They ship eye drops all over the U.S. Lovely.

Alexa officially joins the dark side of the Force. The supposedly objective provider of website traffic analytics announced a new method of calculating rankings and suddenly conservative website rankings are plummeting while liberal pro-government websites are skyrocketing. Even MSNBC’s Alexa rank is rising… which tells you all you need to know.

NBC crew violates their voluntary quarantine. So the state of New Jersey has placed them in a mandatory quarantine. Question: who was naïve enough to trust a bunch of journalists – especially NBC journalists – in the first place?

Manufacturer who promised to replace human workers with a million robots… has instead hired 100,000 more humans. Apparently, “robots are unable to match the dexterity of human hands” and lack judgment. Score one for the biologicals – yay team!

CDC was not monitoring healthcare workers who cared for Ebola patient. Gee, why would they monitor people who were caring for a vomiting, bleeding, sweating, crying, dying Ebola patient? They don’t have time for that! They have important shit to do at the CDC, like news conferences to attend, TV interviews to give, and Ebola flyers to print.

Biden praying for a high-profile shooting victim. Because that would advance the gun control agenda. It’s always icky when liberals flash a glimpse of their real selves.

Dallas healthcare worker tests positive for Ebola. She cared for Thomas Duncan, the patient who just died from Ebola, and wore full protective gear the whole time. ‘Nuf said.

Now the other political party in Australia has wised up. After a centre-right coalition swept into power last year promising to eliminate the country’s carbon tax, which Australians hated, the leftwing Labor Party has decided to abandon the tax, too. It’s a start. Maybe other countries will follow suit and Global Warming will soon join Piltdown Man in the circular storage bin of science fakery.

Jack-o’-lantern photo of sun released by NASA. Just in time for Halloween. And it looks like the sun is smiling… probably thinks the Global Warming thing is funny.

Democrat governor’s fiancée broke immigration law. In 1997 an Ethiopian named Abraham Abraham paid her $5,000 for a sham marriage so he could stay in the U.S. If she was Republican this would be a scandal – because she’s Democrat, this will be seen as heroic. (We might even see her running for governor of Texas someday.)

Gwyneth Paltrow hosts fundraiser for Obama. Between the “You’re so handsome that I can’t speak properly” and the “It would be wonderful if we were able to give this man all of the power that he needs to pass the things that he needs to pass,” it was brainless Hollywood twit on full display.

Dallas Ebola patient had 103-degree fever – ER sent him home. Yeah, we got this under control.

Putin’s tiger defects to China. Hey, you can’t teach national loyalty to a wild animal. Tigers aren’t fooled by macho primping – they want food. And China has so much food, dead pigs come floating down the river… which is pretty much the definition of Tiger Paradise.

Census Bureau whistleblower confirms what everybody already knew: the Labor Department’s unemployment numbers are fraudulent.

Those thermal scanners they’re using in airports to measure body temperature? They don’t really work. (Coincidentally, this photo, pulled randomly off the Internet, shows a scanner registering a body temperature of 94 degrees which is sufficient for an official diagnosis of hypothermia.)

Comedy gold: MSNBC asks Dem. senator if Obama doing a good job handling Ebola crisis. Even MSNBC hosts break into laughter at the senator’s answer.

George Will uninvited to speak at Scripps College. Here’s the punchline: he was uninvited to speak, in a program designed to promote conservative views on campus, because of his conservative views.

Feminist/journalist/Democrat Naomi Wolf releases her inner whacko. In a series of Facebook posts, Ms. Wolf declared the ISIS beheading videos to be fakes done with actors, opined that the U.S. Army is in West Africa not to fight Ebola but to militarize Africa (and then bring the disease back to America so they have an excuse for a military takeover here), and insisted there was fraud in the Scottish independence vote. Cue The Twilight Zone music.

Liberian child comes to Delaware hospital with Ebola symptoms. Hospital calls CDC and CDC declines to test for Ebola. WTF!?

Doctor with Ebola who was released from Nebraska hospital last week… was re-admitted to a Massachusetts hospital yesterday. They insist they don’t think the Ebola has returned, but:

“We are isolating Dr. Sacra to be cautious pending final confirmation of his illness. We think it is highly unlikely that he has Ebola. We suspect he has an upper respiratory tract infection.”

Uh huh.

Unfortunately timed magazine cover. Last week, as people in Dallas were learning they had a Liberian immigrant with Ebola in their midst, Dallas Weekly was publishing an issue that blares, “‘Taste of Africa’ Comes To Dallas!” on the cover.

CDC Director says isolating West Africa would actually make U.S. less safe (2:05 mark). Dr. Tom Frieden is the epitome of an irrational dysfunctional bureaucrat, liable to be remembered alongside the other misguided bureaucrats whose evil deeds befoul human history.
