WR, fortunately for the Obama administration, the Ebola scare seems to be dying down. I actually agreed with the administration in not shutting off all travel between America and Africa, since that would have been an incredibly drastic measure that could have cost us more than the actual virus itself.

But I don't agree with those who are against 21-day quarantines, especially that nurse in Maine who felt she had a "right" to do WTF she wanted. She of all people should have appreciated the dangers of Ebola and how much of a big deal it is to contain and treat. Instead, she whines about her "dignity," that selfish idiot.

As for the Obama administration and it's handling of the Ebola crisis, I give it a C+. Not great, but could have been worse. Some of the excuses that the administration gave in not shutting off travel were really silly, like, "Oh we don't want to discourage aid workers from going to Africa." Really? You should focus on the welfare of Americans on home soil first.
