Badder Thoughts

It is too soon to know if the young woman in Texas will die from Ebola so we can’t pin her death on anyone just yet. We can blame our government for letting disease riddled savages into our country, at least one of whom had Ebola and infected this young women. There’s a chance she could be saved due to the help of  a citizen.

The Texan nurse diagnosed with Ebola has received a blood transfusion from survivor Dr Kent Brantly, reports claim.

It is the third time Dr Brantly has donated blood to Ebola victims after medics discovered he had the same blood type as previous patient Dr Nick Sacra and NBC cameraman Ashoka Mukpo, who is still being treated.

Incredibly, nurse Nina Pham, 26, has also matched with Brantly and today received a transfusion of his blood in a move that doctors believe could save her life. 

Pham has been in quarantine since Friday after catching the disease from ‘patient zero’ Thomas Eric Duncan – the man who brought the deadly virus to America.

Brantly is believed to have traveled to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, where Pham worked, to make the donation on Sunday night.

Today, Pham’s condition was described as ‘clinically stable’.

At the end of the Carter years, a lot of sensible people thought we were finished as a country. The people in charge simply had no idea how to turn the thing around and keep us from collapsing into a heap like Europe. But, the people were still in good shape. When someone with a clue came along, he was put in charge and the decline was arrested. Reagan was not perfect, but he did not have a bunch of crazy ideas in his head about the country and his countrymen. As a result, he championed sensible public policy that left the American people free to work out the rest.

Today, we are once again run by people with crazy ideas in their heads and the country is headed down the tubes. The difference now is we have millions of savages poring over the borders. Those savages are carrying disease and pestilence. Ebola is a disease you get from eating bats or improperly handling the infected corpses of the dead – IN AFRICA! There’s no damned reason for anyone in America to get the disease. It’s time to build the scaffold.

I heard today there are 60000 Somalis in Columbus, Ohio and 150000 in Minneapolis. That’s 210000 people taking up space on the lifeboat that should be jettisoned back to their desert paradise. I can’t fathom what kind of imbecile would think this is good policy.

I think most UK people recognise UKIP is a rearguard action, but it is all we have. Whatever they do (and most of us want them to ensure we are free of socialist, control-obsessed Europe, which incidentally is why the oft-promised referendum on the issue will never materialise: our politicians always want their greedy snouts in the Euro trough) they probably will fade into the background sooner or later.sadly, the damage here is done. We have become socialist whether we liked it or not, we are controlled and watched all the time and we are lied to smoothly and easily.Strange though it seems, a lot of Brits still want a successful and strong America. Maybe it’s because we had a hand in your creation (albeit a hand we didn’t really foresee) and you chose to speak English, which boosts our ego no end. Whether you can still be the strong, focussed nation you once were remains to be seen. Just don’t go down the road we did.

A lot of Americans are looking at Canada thinking it is in our long term interest for them to succeed. our children and grandchildren need a place to flee. Maybe that’s what Brits think of America.

I don’t know much about what Reagan did for the US though I am aware of how much Churchill, and Thatcher, did to assist Britain in time of dire need.Churchill’s immediate problem was obvious but Thatcher helped stem in the 80s what was a slide into left-wing sludge with endless dissent, strikes and irresponsible actions by those with other agendas and who who didn’t care about the nation. (The old UK joke was that the establishment-based paper The Times newspaper only cared about who ran the country, but the worker-communist rag The Daily Worker only cared that Russia should run the country)But both Churchill and Thatcher stemmed a decay. They got hated for it, sure, but that is the way of the shallow left.If Reagan was like that too then it occurs to me that every so often in a nation’s life a person comes along who, whatever their faults, halts the slide into barbarism and decay. Then the ‘leaders’ who come after slowly start doing all the old decay stuff again and the process of the slide resumes.Maybe on both sides of the Atlantic we are waiting for the next ‘arresting entity’ to stop the slide, but they don’t seem to be around at the moment.

Reagan was to America what Thatcher was to the UK. He ushered in sound money, cleaned up the tax code, rebuilt the military and stop pretending the Soviets were winning. The result was a renewed confidence amongst Americans. The resulting technological revolution carried us through the Caligula years in the Bush Years. There’s no Reagan waiting in the wings now. The UK has UKIP, but that looks like a rearguard action.

Build the scaffold? Hell, it’s time to load the long range deer rifles and begin the cull.

I would not blame any hospital nurse who refused to care for a patient with Ebola. Obama and the CDC Director keep saying the probability of catching the virus from a symptomatic patient is low, but they always avoid saying the obvious that if you DO catch the virus death is almost certain (at least 70% of Ebola victims die of the disease). The important metric for all of us, but caretakers in particular, is: ROI = Probability of catching the disease from someone who’s contagious X Likelihood of dying if you do catch it. (In other words, this Result of Infection is analogous to the ROI expected return from a financial investment.) The first factor, in Obama World, may be small, but the second factor is HUGE and in the majority of cases IRREVERSIBLE: you catch the virus, you die.
