Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal knows where to place the blame for the global spread of Ebola.
Is it on deforestation, which, according to the Washington Post, is "bringing humans into closer contact with rare disease strains viral enough to precipitate an epidemic?" No, of course not.
Is it poverty, which makes it difficult for affected areas to develop the health care infrastructure needed to treat the sick and contain the outbreak? Nope, not even close.
It is lack of education about unsanitary practices that put people at risk? Puh-leeze, that's crazy talk!
No, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal knows exactly who and what are to blame for the now-global Ebola outbreak: Barack Obama and Obamacare.
National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Francis Collins said Sunday that there would have been an Ebola vaccine already had it not been for budget cuts and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal blamed The Affordable Care Act for taking money from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Adorable. This would be the same Bobby Jindal who famously mocked government spending, including "something called volcano monitoring," during a 2009 response to President Obama's address to Congress.
Yeah, that was a great line until it blew up in his face almost as soon as he said it.
But now we're supposed to believe that ol' Bobby has been agonizing over a lack of government spending on a vaccine for a virus that was only infecting and killing blackity black Africans until just a few weeks ago.
Yeah, I buy that, Bobby. Next, you'll be telling me you have a volcano in New Orleans you're willing to sell cheap.
