they are viciously racist, every single one of them (other than the Black rightys, all 8 of them), and fighting ISIS or ISIL or EBOLA means little to them compared to their deep, deep, deep HATRED of that Black Family in that White House.

Big oil isn't happy with the price of oil and ISIS could be the threat to stability that could cause the price to go back up. They also know that Ebola is not a major threat in the US.

They will use the old Republican tactic of having to cut some essential service to fund the fight against Ebola and ISIS that President Obama will, hopefully, not go along with and that will make the President the fall guy for the plan falling apart.

If the price of oil rises or we have an Ebola outbreak in the US, it's Obama's fault for not signing onto the Republican plan.

The republiscum leadership is terrified that obama will grant amnesty because latinos and asians will support democratic party as much as african americans do! The republiscum base hates minorities and won't let the leadership deal with this issue. Imagine young dreamers demonstrating at events held by republiscum running for president. And if security makes a mistake and creates an incident involving a dreamer, well...
