Stop! Dana Loesch accused of 'promoting xenophobia' for Ebola concern

Liberian authorities have announced plans to prosecute the man who entered the U.S. with Ebola, accusing him of lying on a health questionnaire before boarding a flight to the U.S.

Dana Loesch believes more needs to be done to guard against the spread of the virus:

Ebola “security screening” includes giving travelers a form that they can lie on, like Duncan reportedly did. #totalconfidence

Proof-positive there’s nothing that can’t be made political.

@KelechiObi @DLoesch stating facts makes one a xenophobe? I did not know that…

@KelechiObi @DLoesch better to die horribly than potentially offend someone

@KelechiObi @DLoesch

Yes. Xenophobia can be the only possible reason. To close-minded people.
