Why not stop incoming flights from West Africa?
The CDC head was asked that question today by our very own Fred Upton, and he answered it this way today before congress.
"If we stop flights from West Africa they will come in through our POROUS borders."
So, apparently he's saying that one or both of are borders are INSECURE? Ya think!!!!
So we have the Republicans who want open borders for cheap labor, and the Dems who want open borders for future Democratic voters (and to flood the country with Central American children, uneducated/unskilled workers, not to mention Mexican Drug Cartel gang banger).
So these two constituencies now have a choice. Do we close secure the borders so that if Ebola ends up in Central America they don't migrate through our southern border like the 30.000 Central American kids did, or do we let cheap labor, and future Dem voters trump our national health security.
That is the real reason the Head of the CDC is ducking and dodging. He wants them trying to sneak in the front door, i.e. our airports (where supposedly they have ways of detecting it
), rather than sneak in UNNOTICED through our southern border. And our politicians have to chose between our safety vs. votes and cheap labor.
When people fear for their lives and their families lives it can become toxic. Rest assured, if the feds continue to neglect our southern border, every gun toting nut job in Texas and Arizona will secure it for them, and that could get messy.
