RedState Briefing 10/14/2014

Republicans Appropriated More for the CDC This Year Than Obama Requested

Democrats, like drug addicts, are convinced that just one more hit of tax dollars will give them the fix they need. Every Democratic response to any situation is to demand government spend more and blame Republicans for not spending as much as they should.

The latest Democratic attack is pretty straightforward in its insanity. Because the GOP won’t let the Democrats spend more money, people are getting Ebola. The Democrats would have you believe that the very same government that could not build an Obamacare website with hundreds of millions of dollars could somehow cure Ebola yesterday with more money.

There is just one problem: facts.

Meet the Incredibly Awful Democrats Behind the Push to Blame Ebola on the GOP
 
This morning RedState received an email from the group responsible for this reprehensible ad. In the email Erica Payne, the President of Agenda Project Action Fund – which I will get to in a moment, lays out her team’s strategy to win the election through fear mongering.

Payne described this new effort as “a multi-pronged blitzkrieg attack that lays blame for the Ebola crisis exactly where it belongs– at the feet of the Republican lawmakers.” She went on to call Republicans rabid dogs before this gem of fear mongering – “Yesterday, a health worker tested positive for the virus– now, the effects of the GOP’s fanatical hatred for our government may finally be exposed.”

President Obama Declares War — On the Clintons

He won’t send ground troops to fight ISIS, but the war between Barack Obama and the Clintons is heating up.

The other night at Gwyneth Paltrow’s house, most of America ridiculed the teenage stalker-ish crush Paltrow admitted she had on the President. But we should examine what the President said too. One of the things he said that is getting overlooked is this

Obama’s ISIS strategy enters Chernobyl phase

When Barack Obama decided to abandon US involvement in Iraq, he may not have set off the current crisis but he certainly made it possible. Now, as the situation worsens day by day, the options available to the administration become fewer and less pleasant. The silver bullet the administration has sought has been an indigenous ground force in Syria that can fight al-Qaeda, ISIS, and Assad.

To be blunt this is not going to happen.

Fat Lesbians Got All the Ebola Dollars, But Blame the GOP
 
Democrats have rushed out of the gate with an attack ad against Republicans claiming if only we had spent more money, we would be able to solve the Ebola situation. It’s a defensive ad that reeks of desperation. At a time when more and more Americans, including millennials, are concluding government just doesn’t work, it probably won’t be effective. And Republicans can respond in kind. For example, instead of studying Ebola, the National Institutes of Health were studying the propensity of lesbians to be fat.

Foreign aid and the spread of Ebola

As the Ebola crisis continues, many in the public health community have expressed a belief that this current outbreak is driven by an “evolution” of the virus that makes it easier to spread.

That does not seem to be the case. While numerous mutations have occurred in the virus there is no evidence that either its method of transmission or general mode of infection have changed at all. In fact, the current variety shows less variation from the past than do the changes in the flu virus from year to year. A recent study on changes in the Ebola virus since the current epidemic broke out found the virus is not evolving.

The New Republic Stumps for Republicans

Things have gotten pretty bad for the Democrats when the The New Republic writes an article like this arguing that Republicans should take control of the Senate. Of course, the piece is written as a scare piece for Democrats trying to encourage them to get out and vote to avoid a parade of horribles that will occur if Republicans take over. Unfortunately, TNR misses two important points: 1. That Republicans don’t have veto-proof support for a single one of these measures, and 2. Almost all of them are overwhelmingly popular with the American public.

Iraq requests US troops. Maybe…

The Vine

Beginning today, close to 3,000 people will be online learning how to perform abortions according to WORLD News Group (WNG). The class, which is being offered by the University of California, San Francisco, is the first of its kind and hopes that the free education will lead to greater accessibility of abortions. Of course, as the WNG post points out, lack of education isn’t the reason why abortion rates have been declining. In fact, “although 97 percent of OBGYNs had encountered a woman who desired an abortion, only 14 percent agreed to carry out the procedure.” Doctors understand that there are two lives at stake and, having taken an oath to protect lives, are understandably not willing to kill one for the convenience of the other. Additionally, the majority of Americans do not support unrestricted abortions no matter how many people take an online course to perform them. The realty is that doctors and the public are already educated and that is why the pro-abortion movement is getting so desperate.
