I was just watching the hearing on Ebola on TV just now. The poor guy from CDC is bring grilled like crazy and is holding up very well.
But so far, 3 different republicans have asked about restricting air travel. The CDC director explained very well why it would be a big mistake and would make things worse. Another republican asked the same thing and asked another CDC guy if he agreed, and he said Yes.
Then, a republican from Arizona asked the same question again but extended it to "securing the border" between US and Mexico, and US and Canada (really). Then finally, another republican (from Texas) spent 5 minutes saying how he was going to push for air travel restrictions anyway, completely dismissing what expert scientists just said 8 minutes earlier.
Just incredible.
