I read the article you posted.

It is the article that is biased - and the bias in that article is huge.

Of all the charges against the GOP made in the article the only one that sticks is that Phyllis Schlaffly's comment was crazy. Every other comment attributed to the GOP makes perfect sense.

Bunk.  Calls to institute a ban on travelers from endemic Ebola hot-spots is based upon sound science....there is no vaccine nor effective treatment for Ebola, it spreads like wildfire, and there is no compelling reason to allow travel from these areas during a fulminant outbreak.  

GOP is, of course, trying to extend this to the open border with Mexico, which is ridiculous.  However, I'd enjoy seeing the Obama administration doing something right for once.

Both parties are quilty of fear-mongering. As a Second Amedment advocate, when a AR-15 is used in a shooting the Democratics, CNN, MSNBC and the like go bonkers. And, then they wheel out Gabby Giffords, the 21st century James Brady!

This is ridiculous. You guys are ridiculous.
That twit in the video is just plain retarded.. and also ridiculous.

People need to rise above all this Dem/Rep bullshot and deal with Ebola without the political crap.
If you think Dallas was an embarrassment, keep fighting and see how foolish you'll look to the rest of the world.

Politics reign supreme. Sad that we all just can't be Americans! Took my son to see Fury last night, The United States was at its apex in 1945! I walked out of that movie so proud to be an American!!!

mrmouse,you can always be proud of being an American.We have saved the world many times and just a few of these times are known about. There is a saying in the Intelligence services that when the country has to go to war,it is a failure of Intelligence. This is true.Johnray1

Lol irrational tangent Sticks.

My complaints about Zer0 are based on facts. This entire thread is irrational garbage.

And the worst part for you is that I'm a hardline libertarian. If you're going to make a troll thread, at least throw a factual item in occasionally.

But good luck with your thread.
