Joe Wilson: Hamas “Creed” Could Bring Ebola To America En Masse

CONGRESSMAN CALLS ON OBAMA TO “SEAL THE SOUTHERN BORDER”

By FITSNEWS || U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson – a “Republican” from South Carolina – says the creed of Islamic militant group Hamas could lead to the intentional spreading of the deadly Ebola virus in America.

Yeah … this issue may have officially “jumped the shark.”

“I’m very concerned,” Wilson said during a speech this week. “We had people who, I’ll repeat it, the creed of Hamas: We value death more than you value life. What? That’s their creed.”

According to Wilson, “part of their creed would be to bring persons who have Ebola into our country.”

“It would promote their creed,” he added.  “And all this could be avoided by sealing the border, thoroughly. C’mon, this is the 21st century.”

That or naming a former Joe Biden bureaucrat as the national “Ebola czar.”  Same difference, right?

News of Wilson’s remarks was first reported by Andrew Kaczynski of BuzzFeed. Kaczynski made sure to note Wilson was speaking hypothetically, but anyone who’s been to the South Carolina second congressional district knows how literally his comments were likely taken.

Which we’re sure was the point …

A longtime fiscal liberal who briefly flirted with limited government as the Tea Party movement waxed in his district, Wilson is best known for the infamous “You Lie!” outburst caused by his caffeine addiction during a presidential address to Congress.

Come on Joe. I live in your district. All you are to me is a press release, a name on the ballot who does not debate his opponents, a person in a photo-op that does not speak. I have no clue what you look like or sound like! You shun your constituents as much as you avoid being seen or heard. Have a town Hall meeting in South Congaree so we the voters can actually see or hear you. You get plenty of time off to campaign and your district is 20 minutes across either direction from center point at 45 mph. I will not vote for a campaign sign or join the Masons and the Rotaries to see or hear you. You come to South Congaree and advertise your appearance so all can attend.

Nah. I’M afraid of people who get special treatment or feel they are entitled to that treatment. I’m as blue-collar as it gets, and I’ve created every break I’ve gotten. Pisses me off to no end to see people get special treatment or advantage due to race, sex, religion, or sexual orientation. I get even more upset at rich people who use economic advantage as a weapon. Most of them claim to b self-made, while ignoring family resources and connections. All for equal rights, but EQUAL, not special treatment or benefits.

CorruptionInColumbia October 18, 2014 at 3:22 pm

Definitely with you on the EQUAL part. Equality, NOT superiority!

Uh, yeah right. October 18, 2014 at 3:43 pm

Being born a white, American and male is not “creating every break I’ve gotten”. What is it with you guys?

truthmonger October 20, 2014 at 7:25 am

Being born a particular race doesn’t mean anything as far as success. There are plenty of poor white families out there, and they didn’t get any special treatment to help them succeed based on race. The difference is, preferential treatment in aid and assistance programs. Those programs CREATE a divide rather than bring people together. Same for sex-based programs. Yes, I resent a female getting a promotion over me when I am (substantially) better qualified and more experienced, then have to do her job WITHOUT additional compensation because she decides to have a baby and takes off for a few months. I have no complaints with a woman who is promoted over me if she is better qualified, but I DO have a problem with promotion for no other reason than because she is female.

Smirks October 19, 2014 at 10:10 am

Democrats are the most fearful group on earth. They’re afraid of what might happen if people didn’t depend on gubamint for everything.

I’m certainly afraid of what would happen if health insurance could drop people on technicalities, effectively robbing them of their access to affordable care at critical times in the name of profits.

I’m certainly afraid of what would happen to old people if programs like Medicare or Social Security were utterly ruined by “well-intentioned” Republicans trying to privatize said programs so greedy corporate fucks could increase their bottom line. (Or, even worse, what would happen to old people if those programs entirely ceased to exist, which we know what it was like to be old and poor pre-Social Security.)

I’m certainly afraid of what a bloated MIC and needless wars does for our country’s ability to sustain itself. I remember when a prominent Republican figure had the same fears, but alas, the party of Eisenhower has regressed to the party of Bush, McCain, Graham…

I’m certainly afraid of what coal companies do to their employees when they contract black lung. I’m certainly afraid of what Halliburton does to its employees when they are raped. I’m certainly afraid of what risk employees of various companies would have to shoulder if OSHA didn’t exist. I’m certainly afraid of what BP can do to the gulf. I’m certainly afraid of what Keystone XL can do to drinking water for tons of people.

In short, I’m afraid of what the degenerates of society will do to others or justify that which is done to others in the name of shrinking government, borne out of self-interest and apathy to their fellow man.

fearing their loss of political power and entitlement more than they fear the fall of the country..

That’s cute.

What will actually kill this country? Raising spending, cutting revenues, destroying regulatory safeguards, bailing out big businesses when they fail, ceaseless military engagements in the Middle East, and doing zip to help the middle class.

That describes both parties and the dominant attitude of D.C. since, at least, 2000.

The fear liberals have is that Democrats have turned into the Republicans of 2000-2008, and Republicans have gone even further off the deep end, and that all of this is going to get much, much worse before it has any hope of getting better.

The fear liberals have is a very real one, it is that ALL government cuts will be done at the expense of the middle class, and ALL spending that benefits corporate interests won’t be touched. It is that ALL tax cuts will go to the ultra rich, who will then hoard the wealth, and that more and more of the tax burden will be placed upon the backs of the middle class.

This is the consequence of conservative think tank policies, and they will be the fall of America.

Welllll…. just look at what has happened with the few cases so far. Ebola is actually an excellent weapon of terror…. sneak carriers over the border, give them BUS tickets to various middle-America cities (medium-sized, they’d be least capable of controlling an outbreak, but large enough for panic to be a serious issue, and bus tickets because, really, where’s TSA looking???). Twenty or thirty carriers travelling across the country could cause us to shut down as people panic.

Further, Ebola is an ugly, lingering, fear-inciting death. The American psyche would definitely pick up a scar or two before we got back in control. It’s cheap and easy to obtain. It is, in fact, an ideal weapon that would be able to complete it’s mission even with a low successful delivery rate of less than 10%. Yeah, I’m scared they’ll use it, too.

Not true. In fact, self-interest and pandering by politicians has far greater impact. Fear is an emotion whose natural response, caution, is highly beneficial. Fear of a nuclear exchange? Caution in negotiations results. Fear of a hurricane? We prepare by stockpiling supplies and planning a response. Fear of a disease? Caution in handling and treatment of patients results. Fear of pandemic? We make preparations such as ensuring an adequate stock of medical supplies.
Fear in and of itself is not bad. In fact, it can be a motivating factor for necessary and prudent actions.

You get exposed.
If you are infected, you get sick with debilitating vomiting and diarrhea within 21 days…and, you’re going to be able to climb the steps on to a bus, plane or train while every ounce of liquid is coming out of your body?
You die or you get well within about a week of symptoms and can never catch it or infect anyone again.

Who cares if about hazmat training when YOU obviously know nothing about the disease process for Ebola?
Stay scared, baby.

The guy that brought Ebola into the US came here legally and through the numerous security/customs checkpoints with a valid passport and was a US citizen if I remember correctly. Now he did lie about not being around someone with Ebola

Unless you make everyone pass a lie detector test when they come into this country legally, sealing the border don’t mean squat.

Remember the movie “Gattica”???

Maybe it will end up like that (to include the right-wing security swabbing everybody for DNA any time they want to)

It will all be in the name of “National Security & defense of the Homeland”

From a comment at NYT op-ed writer Brank Bruni’s column:

Leadership is a complex attribute, but let’s be clear – the nation’s current cynicism about government institutions and government leadership didn’t happen in a vacuum. Saint Ronald sowed the seeds with his “government is the problem”, and his party set about spreading the word among the American people. So after three decades of wanting to strangle government in a bathtub, this disreputable cast of Republican characters sees its wishes coming true, only to scream bloody murder at the government’s incompetence, …. This is what happens when leverage over government is entrusted to a party that doesn’t believe in it. Those who now cry for leadership after doing their utmost to reject and destroy it are cruel, calculating hypocrites of the worst order.

With Ebola – they’d be dead before they ever reached the border. Now, if you wanted to do it – you’d fly to Toronto, rent a car, and cross into Buffalo – all about three hours from touchdown, rental car pick-up, stop off for some good eats, and drive down around Lake Ontario.
