Take a deep breath through your respirator and relax, America! Barack Obama is going to appoint an Ebola Czar to coordinate the government's response to the not-really-an-outbreak of Ebola in the USA. The appointee, according to CNN, will be Ron Klain, who served in the past as chief of staff for Old Handsome Joe Biden, and earlier, for Al Gore when he was veep. Get ready for some screaming on the right, since Klain is not a doctor -- which is a good thing,
I read the Cabbage Hammer's column today. Among other points he claimed that British Airways has stopped flights to the affected countries, but noted that we (sic) haven't yet. He doesn't seem to grasp that no US-based airline actually flies to any of the countries with an Ebola epidemic.
So, the people who keep reminding us that "I'm not an economist" but want to decide how to run our economy, and "I'm not a scientist" but want to decide what to do about climate change (nothing)- want a doctor to deal with a disease?
What if, instead of an Ebola Czar, we had something like a Surgeon General for the whole U.S. of A.? Maybe even one who's nomination hasn't been blocked for a year by the NRA? Jeez, hasn't the NRA already got enough ways to try to kill us all?
