Rand Paul: You Can Catch Ebola At A Cocktail Party
Rand Paul, the eye doctor turned Republican Kentucky Senator, weighed in on the Ebola virus, which is like going to a foot doctor when you have stomach pains.
“[The Obama administration] has downplayed how transmissible it is,” Paul told CNN on Thursday morning. “They say it’s the exchange of bodily of fluids. Which makes people think, ‘Oh, it’s like AIDS. It’s very difficult to catch.'”
“If someone has Ebola at a cocktail party they’re contagious and you can catch it from them,” Paul continued. “[The administration] should be honest about that.”
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.”

A Twitter user weighs in:
@KilloughCNN@BKcolin Note to avoid Ebola. If guest at cocktail party is bleeding from their gums, nose etc do not kiss them. Solved.

I think you’re safe, Rand.
So far every case of Ebola in this country got it by helping people. So relax, Republicans, you’re in the clear.

Unless you’re swapping fluids with someone at a party – someone who has cared for an Ebola patient – then you’re safe. Ebola is not spread through the air like the flu. Oh, won’t flu season be fun this year with Ebola hysteria on the rise? One has to wonder what kind of fluid-swapping parties Rand Paul attends.

Best Ebola one-liner yet:
At a close second, my favorite barista passed this along today, “Want to hear an Ebola joke?” … (dramatic pause) … you probably wouldn’t get it.”

How many cocktails parties will he host or attend for his candidacy for president?
greenfloyd October 17th, 2014 at 00:02
Not sure about actual number. However you can bet it will be in direct proportion to how many Ebola cases emerge out of this misguided “no ban” mentality Obama clings to.

For a moment I thought you said Morlock University…my bad…but the same thing, right?
tiredoftea October 17th, 2014 at 00:35
No, Morlock is certified.

Graduates and their followers are certainly certifiable…

Three people out of 300 million catch Ebola, every Republican goes insane.

Ok Rand you better go hide under your bed and quit this silly idea of running for President and also being a Senator. The risk are high you might turn up at a cocktail party and then get Ebola, or go to Pat Robertson’s house and get AIDS from his toilet seat.
Now does Libertarians seem to be friends of Liberals? I sure never thought they were.

Republicans and conservatives live in and on fear and hate. Fear in this case.

This sounds suspiciously like “Green Eggs and Ham”
You can catch it on a plane
You can catch it on a train
You can catch it with a fox
You can catch it in a box
You can catch ebola, man
You can catch it, Sam I Am
