President Obama still plans to convene a three-day summit in Washington for leaders of African countries even though the continent is experiencing an outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus, a White House spokesman said Wednesday.
We have no plans to change any elements of the U.S.-Africa summit as WE BELIEVE all air travel continues to be safe here, principal deputy press secretary Eric Schultz told reporters. Obama has issued invitations for the summit to leaders in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone THE THREE COUNTRIES EXPERIENCING THE EBOLA OUTBREAK!!! Schultz downplayed any concerns. As the CDC has said, this is not a risk to the U.S. AT THIS TIME , he said. (HOW COMFORTING!!)
Paul Bedard at the Washington Examiner reports that while leaders of Liberia and Sierra Leone have decided NOT to attend the summit, affected nations are SENDING LARGE DELEGATIONS and entourages:
At least one of those leaders attending the Sunday-Wednesday summit, Nigerias President Goodluck Jonathan, is bringing a 73-PERSON ENTOURAGE. Those from Guinea and Liberia are also expected to be large. While the travel of the entourages and support staff such as jet crews is NATURALLY RAISING CONCERNS, the White House tamped down worries and said the summit will go on.
Officials in both the United States and in African countries are on HIGH ALERT. Because of the HIGHLY-CONTAGIOUS disease, Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has announced that certain borders of the country will be closed until the outbreak stops.
U.S. health officials issued a travel advisory warning Americans not to travel to the three countries where the virus has KILLED MORE THAN 700 PEOPLE.
IMMIGRATION:
Internal investigators have already dismissed most complaints of civil rights violations against federal agents handling the surge of illegal immigrant children on the border brought by the ACLU. However, the Homeland Security Department Inspector General said in a new report that agents are ACTUALLY MAKING NEAR-HEROIC EFFORTS during the crisis.
In its first report since the surge, the inspector general said agents have contracted everything from SCABIES AND LICE TO CHICKENPOX, INCLUDING BRINGING THE DISEASES HOME TO THEIR OWN CHILDREN, as they care for the unaccompanied minors. Investigators also said they saw instances of agents and officers SPENDING THEIR OWN MONEY TO BUY TOYS, CLOTHING AND FOOD FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES.
These Border Agents are understaffed, taking risks with their health and the health of their own families by tending to unaccompanied immigrant children (including diapering), taking risks with their lives because the inadequate staff makes them more vulnerable to the drug cartels and human traffickers, and the ACLU makes complaints. It's shameful!! Wonder if any of them have been to the shelters and/or barracks where the immigrants have been housed. OBAMA SURE HASN'T!!
So let's see: In the past five years alone, the number of households on food stamps has greatly increased. In fiscal year 2009 Oct. 1, 2008 through Sept. 30, 2009 -- the number of households on food stamps was 15,232,115. Five years later, in 2013, that amount had increased by 51.3% to reach 23,052,388 households.
Between 2009 and 2012, the federal government recorded the largest budget deficits relative to the size of the economy since 1946, causing federal debt to soar. Federal debt held by the public is now about 73 percent of the economys annual output, or gross domestic product (GDP). That percentage is higher than at any point in U.S. history except a brief period around World War II, and it is twice the percentage at the end of 2007.
Obamacare caused the cancellation of 5 MILLION preferred policies by insured Americans, with many having to change doctors, pay larger premiums, larger co-pays, larger deductibles, and also forced Americans to go on a futile search for that elusive $2,500 (another broken promise).
His policies have placed immigrant children in danger as they make their way to the Mexican border, have placed OUR CHILDREN in danger of contracting diseases from these same migrant children, and not satisfied with that, he has now chosen to invite the possibility of exposure to the deadly EBOLA virus to our shores.
Why now? Why can't he wait until the epidemic is eradicated before he invites African representatives here? We're talking about 50 Leaders and their populous entourages. Are they all being tested before their journey here?
Could the November elections have something to do with it? Is Obama concerned that the tremendous cost of the flood of illegals is making blacks realize that they are being deprived of the jobs and funds that THEY need - especially in Chicago? Or maybe it's just another diversion from the Mid-East and Russian conflicts which this Administration seems too impotent to influence.
