Phyllis Schlafly: Obama wants America to be just like Africa, Ebola and all.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"1013PhyllisSchlafly\"Phyllis Schlafly is working hard to be the most hateful woman on the planet well into her dotage. In the last few weeks, the 90-year-old Eagle Forum founder has said some real doozies, from advising young women to get married to avoid being raped, to attributing the Secret Service mess-ups to the fact that an overweight woman was leading the agency.  Now she is turning that lightning intellect to the scourge of ebola, which she says Obama is trying to spread around America.<\/p>\n

To be fair, she thinks he\u2019s also trying to spread other diseases. That\u2019s why he let those kids from Central America in.<\/p>\n

\u201cOut of all the things he\u2019s done,\u201d Schlafly told WorldNetDaily in an interview this week, \u201cI think this thing of letting these diseased people into this country to infect our own people is just the most outrageous of all.\u201d<\/p>\n

These diseased people. Let’s just contemplate the hatefulness in that.<\/p>\n

The problem, Schlafly says, is that Obama wants America to be as awful as other places. Especially Africa, because he rejects American exceptionalism. And because he\u2019s black, of course. And because he’s living in the White House with his family while black.<\/p>\n

\u201cObama doesn\u2019t want America to believe that we\u2019re exceptional," Phyllis whined. "He wants us to be just like everybody else, and if Africa is suffering from Ebola, we ought to join the group and be suffering from it, too. That\u2019s his attitude.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oh, ugh. Can\u2019t someone get her to shut up? She is spreading the disease of hatred and ignorance every time she opens her mouth. Talk about a public health threat\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
