*Former GOP Senator and doctor Bill Frist says a travel ban is ineffective, but it hasnt stopped some politicians and others from pushing for one. They know better, but they think that if they can use fear to win a political advantage, its acceptable behavior in those we send to D.C. to govern. The politicians on both sides of the aisle who are doing this are self-serving, dishonest individuals, all of them. AS:Political pundits say Republicans see new advantage in whipping Obama and Democrats with the scary Ebola stick since Americans have grown tired of the Obamacare beatings. Who cares that absolute public panic and endless tragic consequences are at stake? Not Gardner and Co. Burn the witch, or get out of the way so I can do it. They disregard experts from all over the planet and even fellow Republicans with better than a third-grade science education such as former Sen. Minority Leader Bill Frist. Frist is a freaking doctor. A very, very conservative doctor. “Former Sen. Frist said a travel ban “would be ineffective from a public and personal health perspective and would be grossly counterproductive to ensuring a cooperative, inclusive and closely aligned effort to eradicate the virus.” Who cares, politicians ask? It’s a popular sentiment from a country where half of the citizens don’t understand or “believe in” evolution, and a whopping 25 percent think the Sun orbits the Earth. I’m not exaggerating that. So Americans are easy prey when it comes to scaring the living hell out of them and turning the country into a living Monty Python epic.
