CHICAGO NEWS CONFERENCE: Obama should start screening Americans, close O'Hare office


Contrarian Commentary editor and Obama researcher Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference today, Friday October 24th, to ask President Barack Obama to start screening Americans who return from Ebola-ravaged areas of Africa and to close the O’Hare Airport Ebola screening station. All Ebola review activity should be consolidated at one or no more than two airports. Andy says the new Ebola case in New York, and the possibility that the thousands of U.S. troops Obama is sending to Ebola-ravaged Africa could be exposed to Ebola, create the risk of an ongoing Ebola infection crisis.

Andy says that by having Ebola screening stations at multiple airports today the CDC is only increasing the potential for a public health crisis. “We must stop Ebola from spreading,” Andy charges. “Having multiple ports of entry for screening expands the potential for spread of the disease. We must also start screening Americans who are returning from African nations where Ebola is prevalent. The majority of our U.S. cases have come from Americans who were in Africa."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Attention Chicago, National daybook/assignment editors

Announcement of Chicago news conference Friday afternoon

Andy Martin asks President Barack Obama to consolidate all Ebola screening at one American airport and to close down the Ebola screening station at Chicago's O'Hare Airport

Andy says the continuing spread of Ebola calls for a single point of entry where everyone is screened, not five (5) screening stations as at present

Andy says it is time to start screening American citizens who are returning from Ebola-affected nations
(CHICAGO, IL) (October 24, 2014)  Obama expert Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference today to ask President Obama to take three immediate steps: [1] to start screening U. S. Citizens who are returning from Ebola-ravaged areas of Africa; [2] to close the O'Hare Airport Ebola screening station; and [3] to consolidate all Ebola screening at one or no more than two locations.

"Left-wing Democrats have tried to suggest that Ebola screening is some sort of racially motivated plot by conservatives," Andy says. "Ebola screening is a public health necessity, not a political issue. By seeking to politicize Ebola control efforts, liberal Democrats are endangering every American.

"The time has come to state the obvious and to take the inevitable action: we must recognize that Americans returning from Ebola areas of Africa have become a significant public health threat in this country.

"U. S. Citizenship does not confer immunity from infection and it should not confer immunity from being screened. The new New York case yesterday underscores that unpleasant reality. EVERYONE returning from Africa who has been in areas where the virus is present should be screened and monitored, both African and American alike.

"I am sure that almost all of us appreciate the great risks being taken by Americans who are fighting Ebola at the source. These brave people should be in our prayers. While we appreciate the risks they are taking for humanity, we cannot ignore the public health risk created here at home when they return. It is absolutely unfair to screen Africans who might have been exposed and to ignore the Americans who are in the midst of the crisis and may have also been exposed.

"Plain talk: the time has come to start screening both Americans and Africans who are entering the U.S.

"The current protocol of having multiple ports of entry for Ebola screening also contributes to the public health crisis. When you want to screen for an emergency, you consolidate all screening at one location. That is why Ellis Island was used a century ago. People were screened for disease at Ellis Island before they entered the U.S., not after they had landed at the [today's] airport.

"For foreigners, entering the U. S. is a privilege, not a 'right' as President Obama's actions suggest. We are allowed to take protective public health measures. Given the dangers posed by Ebola, the screening process must now be extended even to Americans. One more case of Ebola is one too many.

"The Obama Administration should therefore immediately close the O'Hare Ebola screening operation. The Obama administration should consolidate all screening at preferably one location but no more than two.

"Ebola is not going away. We have been warned that the risk is growing, not receding. The time has come to think clearly about how to contain Ebola, and to reject the 'political correctness' approach of President Obama which is posing an increasing threat to the safety of every American."

Andy returns to New York on Saturday after attending homecoming at the University of Illinois. He will continue to study how to fight the Ebola War.

CHICAGO NEWS CONFERENCE: Andy Martin - Is President Obama deliberately infecting the United States?


Contrarian Commentary editor and Obama researcher Andy Martin reviews the evidence of how two (2) current public health crises in America have their origins in deliberate policies supported by President Barack Obama. Is Obama's "third World" orientation endangering the American people by fostering the importation of infectious diseases into the United States? Andy made a very accurate prediction of the Ebola crisis -- on September 16th.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Attention Chicago, National daybook/assignment editors

Announcement of Chicago news conference Wednesday afternoon

Andy Martin asks: Is Barack Obama deliberately or negligently infecting the American people with deadly diseases?

Andy says the evidence is overwhelming that Obama administration policies are creating an ongoing series of public health emergencies in the United States

Andy charges that "President Obama is 'outsourcing' our national security to African government employees"

(CHICAGO, IL) (October 22, 2014)  I am often asked if we exaggerate in calling ContrarianCommentary.com the "Internet Powerhouse," a term that was applied to my investigative analysis during the 2008 president election. Beginning in 2004 I started exposing the truth about Barack Obama. My 2007 Psychological Profile of the future president predicted he would be unable to function in the Oval Office. Obamabots have paid me the ultimate compliment of relentless personal attacks and bogus "biographies" in Wikipedia. But still I keep publishing the truth.

After losing a primary election on September 9th I have been on a national tour promoting conservative causes and supporting Republican candidates.

And, on September 16th I held a news conference in Chicago with this subject: Chicago news conference - "Is Barack Obama trying to infect the US with Ebola?" You can read the full story at link [1] below.

Here is part of what I had to say on September 16th:

No western nation has ever willingly placed thousands of its citizens in harm’s way of a killer virus. In the Midwest, authorities currently have been unable to contain a children’s’ virus and the contagion is spreading to other states.

To date the US has avoided infection with Ebola at home because of the small number of volunteer Americans who are fighting the disease overseas. But even with just three or four cases, a massive mobilization was necessary to evacuate Americans who became infected. If Obama exposes thousands (and then more thousands through rotation) of our military and civilian employees to this killer virus how can we avoid massive exposure to Ebola? What if something goes wrong and we suddenly have 100 Ebola patients, or more?

I think you will agree my analysis was accurate and very predictive. Because I am trained as a lawyer and analyst I use descriptive analytics instead of quantitative analysis to "see over the horizon." It is a "contrarian" approach and he results speak for themselves.

But now we have to address the broader picture. Are Obama's policies deliberately or negligently infecting and endangering the American people? In my opinion the answer is yes.

Point One. The enterovirus D68 which attacks children has to date killed more children than Ebola, and D68 continues to kill children (see link [2] below for more information). It is highly likely that the surprise outbreak of this deadly substance (D68) was imported as a result of the "children's invasion" of the USA by Central American activists last summer. Obama's deliberate effort to flood the United States with illegal immigrants is now literally killing our own children.

Point Two. Obama's "experts," and the president himself, promised us the Ebola contagion was under control and would not reach the United States. He was wrong. Obama's approach? To keep lying abut the Ebola epidemic in Africa and its potential danger to Americans. (I will have more to say about that on Thursday.)

Some of Obama's enemies accuse him of having a "Third World" orientation. Obama's supporters on the other hand accuse his opponents of unfairly attacking the president as "the Other." Obama's opponents obviously have the better of the argument.

It is inescapable that Obama's policies are leading to mass infection and unnecessary deaths in the United States. The recent epidemic of D68 didn't just appear out of nowhere. Like many pathogens it is "out there." There is no medical dispute that "children" from Central America illegally entering the USA last summer brought D68 with them. D68 is a child killer. How would you feel if your youngster had died as a result of an infection brought into this country at Obama's direction and under his supervision by illegal aliens?

Likewise Obama has doggedly refused to quarantine or control citizens from Ebola-infected nations. He insists our "doors stay open," to aid those nations, not ours. Clearly, Obama is putting African nations before his responsibilities to the American people.

President Obama decries "outsourcing" of American jobs. But he has become the ultimate "outsourcer" by delegating the initial step in screening African passengers to African governments (see link [3] below). No one should begin a trip in Africa that will lead them to the United States without U.S. Government control at every stage of the journey. "Trusting" African government employees to screen for a public health emergency when their governments have failed to contain the contagion is irresponsible behavior by Obama and his public health cronies.

Obama has promised to take more illegal actions after the November election. Is it any wonder that Americans in all probability face a constitutional crisis and political confrontation in the New Year?

Barack Obama may fancy himself the first "President of the Third World." But he is clearly not acting in the best interests of the American people. His immigration "policies" ultimately are killing American children and endangering American adults. Be concerned.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Attention Chicago, National daybook/assignment editors

Announcement of Chicago news conference Tuesday afternoon

Purported “journalist” Rich Miller censors effort to defend Illinois Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner

Andy Martin says the Chicago Sun-Times is not blameless in the “McKinney incident”

Andy says Rich Miller should not be considered a legitimate journalist but rather a stooge of the Illinois Democratic Party

(CHICAGO, IL) (October 22, 2014)  “Monday morning I attempted to post a comment on the capitolfax.com web site raising questions about the “McKinney incident” Andy says. “I am clearly not a supporter of Bruce Rauner and I have never been a critic of Dave McKinney. I bear neither man any personal animus.

“My comment was innocuous. Here it is in its entirety:

I am certainly no fan of Bruce Rauner but it seems to me the McKinney story is more serious than it appears on first blush. The claim that Dave McKinney’s wife is not doing consulting in Illinois but that her firm is advising clients in Illinois is legally a distinction without a difference. It was not until I saw your story that I realized how big the amount of McKinney-related fees was. Maybe I have now graduated to the status of “old fashioned” but, if asked, I would have suggested the Sun-times disclose the potential conflict and avoid the controversy. The fact that Quinn may have been polling on the story before it was published also raises the question of whether there was a leak.

Illinois politics has long been tainted by family-related conflicts of interest. The fact that Dick Durbin’s wife is a Washington lobbyist has always raised legitimate questions in my mind. Durbin also denies any conflict. Bruce had a right to fight back on this one. There is an “appearance’ of a conflict that can leave a reasonable person uncomfortable. Because Rauner’s campaign team is inexperienced he has not handled the defense as well as he should have.

“Rich Miller removed my comment in an obvious attempt to skew his web site against Rauner. Mr. Miller has every right to censor his web site to present a pro-Democratic Party point of view. He does not have the right to masquerade as an impartial and professional journalist while acting as a hit man for Illinois Democrats.

“The issue of ‘conflicts’ posed by the modern age, in which people in the media, politics and public relations intermarry, is a subject worthy of serious consideration and debate. On the facts of Mr. Rauner’s incident I thought Bruce had a reasonable proposition to present. Rich Miller was obviously trying to act like a hick politician instead of a respectable journalist.

“The standard we use in the law is ‘what would a reasonable person think of the facts?’

“The recent appearance of ‘lobbyist’ spouses in Washington, such as Mrs. Dick Durbin, adds to the public belief that wives now serve as ‘bagmen’ for politicians and that ‘Washington’ always finds a way around any ethical restrictions which are adopted. The ‘McKinney incident’ feeds into the same narrative. The Sun-Times has every right to defend their employee, even if the undisputed facts fly in the face of the ‘reasonable person’ standard of behavior.

“I believe a reasonable person would believe that Dave McKinney, because of the huge amount of work his wife’s firm was doing in the current election, had an actual conflict of interest. McKinney’s wife has to benefit from the $600,000 or whatever amount her firm has billed. To pretend that in a small, closely-owned company a $600,000 account would not create some sort of benefit for even a partner supposedly ‘walled-off’ from working on the account is an insult to the intelligence.

“Mr. Miller has his stable of sycophants who he allows to post the most inane remarks on a daily basis. He is obviously not interested in reasonably impartial analysis of a serious situation. Particularly because I am not a supporter of Mr. Rauner, my belief that Rauner’s complaints had arguable merit was entitled to be presented along with Miller’ sycophants’ comments.

“People should be aware Miller is not a journalist; he has the same kind of conflict that Bruce Rauner raised in relation to Dave McKinney,” Andy says.
