Obama the worst president ever

Enough is enough. This president messes up something virtually every week now. This time it’s his reaction to Ebola. He told us it’s “unlikely” it will come to our shores. That happened. He then said it’s won’t spread to the populace. Well, looks like he’s dead wrong on both accounts. He won’t stop the travel of people from infected countries. He’s going to take their temperature as they enter the U.S. Only a complete fool would believe that could help find Ebola in a person. It has a 21-day incubation period. Duh.

So, he’s being PC over doing his job, which is to protect the American public. His job one. Seriously, what’s wrong with this guy? It’s always politics over doing what’s right. Have we ever had a more inept president doing a worse job? As the bumper sticker says, “Jimmy Carter is no longer the worst president.” Funny, even Jimmy Carter is speaking out negatively about this guy.

I know there is always going to be the 10 percent who back this guy no matter what. Most of them are in the mainstream media. Too much invested to admit they were wrong all along about this community organizer with no idea what he’s doing. Remember this next time you vote. Vote for the person who can do the job. Not the cool guy who will make history as the first black president or the first woman. Vote for the qualified candidate. Your life may depend on it.

Advisers to Kennedy appear poised to make consequential changes to the childhood vaccination schedule, delaying a shot that is routinely administered to newborns and discussing big changes to when or how other childhood immunizations are given.
