| Obama Names Ebola Czar To Throw Under the Bus |
| 2014-10-17 |
| [FoxNews] Responding to growing calls to appoint an "Ebola czar" to lead America's battle against the deadly virus, sources confirm to Fox News that President Obama plans to name Ron Klain, a longtime political hand with no apparent medical or health care background. He did, however, serve as chief of staff to Al Gore and later Vice President Biden. With the DHS expediting visas from African Ebola states to beef up the Dem vote with foreign nationals in the US, this will distract from the deadly back room deals with those states will have on the hated American citizens. |

| #10 People have died, the stakes are high, and this guy still plays politics (or is just that stupid). No, no mental problems here. |

| #9 So if a black guy starts using a street dialect discussing this disease, is it considered Ebolics? Snark of the Day |

| #8 It gets better: Mr. Klain, a former chief of staff for Vice Presidents Al Gore and Joseph R. Biden Jr., is known for his ability to handle high-stakes and fast-moving political challenges. Mr. Klain is uniquely positioned to help Mr. Obama counter such questions and rein in a story that has sometimes seemed to spiral out of the White House’s control, said one Democratic operative. “He’ll control the message better than most people would, which is really important from an economic standpoint, from a health standpoint, but it’s also important from a political perspective,” the operative said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. Emphasis mine. |

| #4 Man with no leadership experience appoints man with no medical experience. Experience comes from bad judgment, but only for those capable of learning. |

| #3 I don't think medical experience would help. The Director of the CDC is a M.D. yet he doesn't seem to be able to find his own asshole with both hands and an basic book on human anatomy. It was the CDC that told that 1st infected nurse that she can fly even when she had a low-grade fever. |

| #2 Man with no leadership experience appoints man with no medical experience. Some things, they never change. |

| #1 From CNN: "Klain will report to both White House homeland security adviser Lisa Monaco and National Security Advisor Susan Rice, according to a White House official. A former chief of staff to Vice President Joe Biden and also to then-Vice President Al Gore, Klain is currently President of Case Holdings and General Counsel of Revolution, an investment group. He has clerked for the U.S. Supreme Court and headed up Gore's effort during the 2000 Florida recount and was portrayed in the HBO movie Recount by Kevin Spacey." Reporting to two incompetant dinks...what can go wrong? |
