Ebola Debacle

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/14/us/pentagon-says-global-warming-presents-immediate-security-threat.html?_r=0How many more times do we have to watch our President and his administration bungle a crisis?  In all honesty, can anyone name the last major crisis that was handled correctly?  The ebola outbreak is yet another example of just how incompetent our leadership is.  Take for one example the fact that Obama refuses to stop all flights to and from the ebola stricken countries in Africa.  CDC chief Thomas Frieden's logic is utter madness.  Peggy Noonan points out that even 11-year olds know how to handle this.  Even more maddening is the fact that Obama, on July 22 of this year, did order a travel ban.... to Israel.  Why?  Because he wanted to send a message that he didn't like the Israeli's going after the terrorists that were lobbing bombs at them from the Gaza Strip.  Here are some other articles on the matter at hand:

But the administrations incompetence does not end there.  Oh no, at a time when Moscow has already taken over a portion of Ukraine and is attempting to take over another, when ISIS militants are beheading journalists and non-Muslims in Iraq and Syria, when ebola is ravaging west Africa, we have far greater problems.  What could it be?  Why, climate change of course.  You know, that thing they used to call global warming until they realized that the earth has not warmed since at least 1999.
