sen rand paul r tb KY is a PUSSY (pussy3[poo s-ee] Slang: a timid, passive, or effeminate man.), a fear mongering coward and a hypocrite because he is one of the leaders of the gop / tea-bagger / grover norquist federal budget cutting cabal in congress. He is too pompous to be ashamed of his words and actions that are fueling unnecessary panic over Ebola, but he should be. The next time he starts running his mouth about Ebola and the inadequate federal government response someone should bitch slap him. This from +Mother Jones followed by a couple of reports from the +PBS NewsHour explaining just how Ebola is transmitted.
Sen.
Rand Paul (R-Ky) reportedly put on his scientist hat this morning,
telling CNN's Ashley Killough that Ebola is more easily spread than
AIDS–a statement that is an irresponsible, flat out lie.

Paul's posturing is just the latest in a series of Ebola-truthing tactics he and other members of the GOP have been fully employing as of late. Perhaps more seriously, Paul's theory calls into question the types of feverish, vomit-spewing cocktail soirees he suggests he frequents.

Rand Paul tells me Ebola more
transmitable than AIDS. "If someone has Ebola at a cocktail party,
they're contagious and you can catch it."
