This is an excellent anti-Republican ad

[TemplarKormac]

Bullshit.
There have been no cuts. Everyone's budget has increased year by year.
What a ******* bunch of leftist bullshit crap.

There were no cuts, until the Democrats decided to reallocate CDC core funding to the community transformation initiatives mandated by ARRA (American Reinvestment and Recovery Act).

I can't see the advertisement but if it's the same one I read about earlier in the day you have got to get a load of this crazy progressive loony group.

They blame the GOP for all ebola deaths.


This is from Erica Payne. President and founder of the progressive Agenda Project Action Fund.

"She said in a statement:

In launching this effort, we will be the first major progressive group to directly blame GOP budget cuts for the nearly 4,000 deaths caused by the Ebola crisis.

Our hope is that this ad and the accompanying report will spark a national conversation about the utter stupidity of the GOP's approach to government policy.

Clearly, a party that despises government will purposefully underfund it, while a party that fundamentally understands the positive role of government will ensure it functions effectively. We hope this ad will begin to establish the idea that only those who understand government should be allowed to run it."

You're a shit-eating retard on the internet.

The Facts About Ebola Funding - Gov. Bobby Jindal - POLITICO Magazine

Jindal's a lying wingnut:

First of all, Jindal is trying to bamboozle you here. If you read this hastily, you might think that the majority of the CDC's entire budget goes to this awful, horrible Obamacare program. But Jindal's talking about one portion of what the CDC receives annually -- $517.3 million over the past five years, or about $100 million a year. The CDC has a budget of $6.85 billion (which still reflects budget cuts from the sequester). The money spent on the community transformation grant program is a small slice of the CDC's total budget.

Second, it's not an Obama-era innovation for the CDC to be focused on trying to get people to live healthier lives in order to reduce the incidence of chronic diseases. Long before Barack Obama even entered politics, the CDC had a National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. Here are doctors from the National Centercontributing to a 1993 report titled Measuring the Health Behavior of Adolescents: The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System. Here's a 1999 CDC report from the National Center titled "Physical Activity and Health," which encourages people to exercise. Here's a 2002 report -- yes, it was completed during the Bush presidency, after 9/11 -- on the effects of secondhand smoke, with contributions from the National Center.

So there's nothing new about the CDC paying attention to health problems that aren't spread by scary viruses.

Liberal scum made the video believing they were savvy and cute but didn't check any facts before they threw the grenade which is going to blow up in their faces.

The average American doesn't believe your shit anymore, but they do see Obama and his goons keeping flights from Africa open and telling us 150 people per day is no big deal when it only takes 1 person to affect thousands at the airport.

One person barfs, craps, sneezes, etc on a plane exposing 100 or more people who in turn contact over 1000 people when back at their homes, jobs, schools, etc.

Why not run a positive campaign? I am sick to death of negativity regardless of source.

Its not a negative ad. Any grown-up will tell you we live in a dangerous world. What the ad shows is that the GOP doesn't understand the nature of the threat.

The threat is morons like you who actually believe they understand anything.

Your little peabrain equates anything GOP bad anything DEM good.

This ad is stupid and full of lies that any CURSORY investigation will reveal, but the Democrats know that their base is like you and too stupid and or dishonest to do any actual research. Just tell you which way to vote.

People, like the OP, who thought that that ad was great are idiots:

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.

Then there was the money for a study on wives who calm down quickly.

And the Centers for Disease Control spent its budget on gun violence studies on order of the President as part of his agenda to curtail the second amendment.

The CDC also spent its money to survey what bus riders thought of HIV videos.

Hey, and let’s not forget all the money the CDC spent to convince people to stop smoking and now we need tobacco to manufacture the drug to fight Ebola. Classic.​

Oh look, the admitted racist is calling other people names. How funny.

The ad underscores the stakes of "cutting spending to the bone" which is a tenant of every GOP/Conservative campaign. When you don't have the tools to fight a threat, the moment the threat presents itself, you're helpless to respond. Thanks to GOP lawmakers in general, the public health workers were denied those tools.

However, in fairness, no spending level in the world will make you prepared for everything. Sterile technique and staff training should be stressed.

What a ******* bunch of leftist bullshit crap.

The republicans gave $300 million MORE to the cdc than what Obozo allocated.

The democrats lie!

As I just got finished lecturing elektra about spewing that bullshit, now its a liberal. Since when do political parties cause disease? If anything you should blame Obama for ditching the CDC's Ebola Protocol.

Any lives lost will be on his shoulders.

Either way, people should stop politicizing this. No political party is responsible for causing Ebola. It's pretty stupid to insinuate such a thing. Do a bunch of toddlers lead your party perchance?

I blame the democrats for the spread of the disease and likely the enurovirus (however it's spelled).

LOL.

What Democrats are responsible for is not a disease, but something similar to one. They sow a seed of deceit in the minds of one person and sit by and watch it spread to millions. And for future reference, the word you're looking for is 'enterovirus'.
