Are you serious? Obama is president. He directs CDC, State Department and other agencies. He has ample authority to ban travel from areas where diseases are rampant. Instead he refuses to do a damn thing to limit the threat faced by americans, either from africa or latin america. So it is perfectly appropriate to blame him and his party for their abysmal leadership.
So in your view, the 30 odd countries who have enacted travel bans are just clueless victims of right wing hysteria?
Not to mention the growing number of US citizens who wants those flights curtailed. Almost 2/3 of the country ... but the Dictator says 'no'.
