It didn’t take long for a Fox News contributor to link President Obama (albeit sarcastically) to the news that a patient in Texas had been diagnosed Tuesday with the first case of Ebola in the United States.
Here’s how Townhall writer Katie Pavlich reacted to the news:
Well, Obama sending troops to combat Ebola worked out really well.

Beheadings. White House intruder. Illegal immigration crisis. Economic stagnation. What else could possibly go wrong? Oh…EBOLA

Obama has ordered 3,000 troops to West Africa to help overwhelmed health workers combat the virus.
Pavlich clarified in subsequent tweets that she wasn’t blaming Obama for the virus reaching America, but seemed to mock those who took issue with her connecting the two.
No. @charlescwcooke

Dear trolls: Ebola is not Obama’s fault. Freak out about Ebola, not a sarcastic tweet. Also read up on news, might help with understanding

9/29: Troops Obama sent arrive in Africa to combat Ebola 9/30: Ebola in US 9/30: I can’t believe you made connection between Obama & Ebola!

thats why fox news is called BULL SHIT MOUNTAIN
Fucking idiot says what?
Katie Pavlich, more proof that female GOPers are airheads who know absolutely nothing and are proud to be stupid.
To some people (lookin’ at you Fox), Obama is ebola.
“…Well, Obama sending troops to combat Ebola worked out really well…”
While Republicans in Congress go AWOL.
