On Friday, talk show host Laura Ingraham spoke about the Ebola outbreak. She disapproves of President Barack Obamas decision to send troops to West Africa to help fight the outbreak and argues, instead, for the global equivalent of locking yourself inside your house and hiding until the outbreak works itself out.
Is this the American military mission to assist in the fight against Ebola? Again if we are really serious about Ebola being a threat to the United States of America, we have to shut down our border because you never know who could come acrossprobably not people with Ebola, but who knows. We gotta be much tougher on who we allow to come into this country legally on planes
She then likely thought, I havent been offensive enough in this three minute clip. How do convey that I dont understand international humanitarian aid while being as offensive as possible?
So, she continued: The military is just another tool in his arsenal to level the playing field, right? I mean, in other words, Africa really deserves more of Americas money because were people of privilege. Were people of great privilege, so we should do what we can, we the American taxpayers, to transfer wealth over to Africa. Its his fathers rage against colonialism, as Dinesh DSouza wrote about, and maybe this is a way to continue to atone for that
If a few American military personnel have to be exposed to the Ebola virus to carry out this redistribution of the privilegeds wealth, then so be it. http://www.salon.com/2014/09/26/laura_ingraham_obama_wants_to_expose_troops_to_ebola_to_make_up_for_colonialism/

(28,211 posts)Laura Ingraham is just a race hustler and ignorant of history.
England, Germany and a few others colonized certain African nations beginning in the 1870's.

The United States had nothing to do with it.
How clinically deranged do you have to be to associate the spread of a virus with wealth redistribution?

The old false equivalency/strawman cons still work on the zealots too stupid to think for themselves.

(111,336 posts)I've noticed something about the right wing blondes, as they approach their late 40s and their looks aren't what they were back in the heady days when they failed to remove Clinton from office over a blow job from an overheated groupie, they tend to get more and more shrill and their accusations are farther from reality as they clamor to be noticed. It's a tough world for older women in the public eye, either they need extensive surgery that's convincing enough to buy them another few years or they have to turn up the volume on the lies they've been telling for years.
Ingraham knows only how to do hatchet jobs and this one is a doozy, screeching to white power groups that they'd better kill him off now before he wipes them out with some dirty African disease. That's what this is about, that and jumping up and down and screaming "Daddy! Look at me!!!" at the media owners.
