Phyllis Schlafly: Obama Intentionally Bringing In Ebola To Make America More Like Africa

http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/phyllis-schlafly-obama-intentionally-bringing-ebola-make-america-more-africa

In an interview with WorldNetDaily published today, Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly weighed in on the unfounded theory gaining traction in the right-wing media that Central American young people are to blame for an outbreak of a childhood respiratory illness in the U.S.

“There are all kinds of diseases in the rest of the world, and we don’t want them in this country,” Schlafly told WND, adding that “of all the things (Obama has) done, I think this thing of letting these diseased people into this country to infect our own people is just the most outrageous of all.”

She went on to imply that President Obama is intentionally allowing people infected with Ebola into the United States because he wants America to be “just like everybody else, and if Africa is suffering from Ebola, we ought to join the group and be suffering from it, too. That’s his attitude.”

It spreads especially quickly among the Republicans and their vast media.

(Except isn't there a gay son in that family?)

Phyllis is a prize hypocrite, and off her rocker.

Her son Andrew runs the right-wing wack site "Conservapedia," created since Andrew thought "Wikipedia" is "too liberal."

Andrew also wants to rewrite the Bible to make it "more conservative."

At least we know progress is being made when WND is the only media outlet (aside from Faux) that will give her press...
