Tweety is terrified of Ebola.

[irisblue]

He has been going on for 10 minutes already.

1. I'm not crazy about it either.

Sounds kinda lousy to me.

[Cleita]

2. Jeez! He's having a hissy.

Even Dr. Emmanuel had to tell him to calm down.

4. a couple of times

[madinmaryland]

3. Thank god, he is finally getting rid of that fucking tingle in his leg.

[Wait Wut]

5. It's a lousy way to go.

I think we need to let the professionals take over to figure out how/what/where to deal with it, and Chris needs to take a yoga class.

[HipChick]

6. Does he go back packing in Africa?

I thought he was going to tell one of his stories

[Raine]

7. Tweety is scared of everything, he's in terror that any minute

someone is going to lop his head off.

[JustAnotherGen]

8. He sounded like an idiot

He is CREATING a conspiracy where none exists.


Dramatic Music Queue: Ebola Gate! What did Obama know and wheeeeen did he know it?

[irisblue]

9. And there he goes again with a roundtable on nonexperts

Tweety STFU

[grasswire]

10. when Tweety was in the Peace Corps he contracted malaria.

So maybe we can understand his fear of disease.

[irisblue]

11. He seems v. obsessed w/ what POTUS said

[Fred Sanders]

12. More scared of being beheaded or Ebola, hard to tell with the TV fear mongers. I need to know what

to fear most!

They must laugh uproariously on pay day.

[bigdarryl]

13. He's off his meds today

14. It has the potential

to be a significant political game changer. Remember who controls elections in this country, and that's the folks in the mushy middle who decide the weekend before an election who to vote for. All they do is react to fear, whichever political party scares them the least tends to get their votes.

If Ebola spreads throughout even just a couple of cities in the US, even if it's just a few dozen people or so, then the media will run with it like crazy. If laxity on letting people travel here from Africa can be tied (even completely incorrectly) to a President who has African roots, then the transference is unstoppable.

There's only a bit more than a month before the election, not enough time for logic and reason to prevail, and plenty of time for Internet rumors, misrepresentations, and outright lies to be spread to that mushy middle.

Yeah, no wonder Tweety is squawking.
