Dallas Ebola patient had contact with children, Texas governor says
...The patient, a man, walked into an emergency room at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas on September 26. A nurse asked him for his travel history while he was in the emergency room, and the patient said he had traveled to Africa, said Dr. Mark Lester, executive vice president of Texas Health Resources.
But that information was not "fully communicated" to the medical team, Lester said.

What is so disturbing about the Texas hospital sending the Ebola patient home, was that he told the hospital he was in Africa, and they still sent him home.

Birthers Birth BS: Michelle Obama Is A Man
The birther fringe has been touting some highly dubious “evidence” that Michelle Obama was born a man and so is biologically incapable of being the mother of her own children.
PLEASE NOTE: Americans are still far more likely to die of being denied Medicaid expansion than Ebola.- LOLGOP
OK. I did some research. You're safe as long as you are not in contact with an Ebola victim...or rely on protection from the Secret Service. - LOLGOP
WTF? Is There An Assassination Plot Afoot?
I'm wondering what the editors at Politico were thinking when they let through this bizarre line about Obama being such an abysmal manager that only his death by assassination is likely to bring about needed reform of the Secret Service.
Republicans now think President Obama has a secret plot not to protect President Obama.- LOLGOP

Sure, Minnesota, Go After A Mom Trying To Help Her Cancer Stricken Child
A Minnesota prosecutor will proceed with a child endangerment case against a mother who provided medical marijuana to her son to treat symptoms of a traumatic brain injury — despite the fact that Minnesota recently passed a law allowing cannabis oil to be used for medical purposes — ThinkProgress reports. That law, however, will not go into effect until 2015.
