There is no excuse....none at all. Those who are elected to represent and protect the USA and it's citizens have known of this potential for months. Given the exponential rise of infections in Africa it was obvious the next things that could happen....
The wait and see approach to protecting America is going to get many of it's citizens NEEDLESSLY put into harms way.
Inexcuseable incompetence! However the politicians are somewhat comforted by the usual lack of outrage and demand from we the people.....hence it is politics as usual.....we are fine let's get on with the important stuff and get re-elected.
How many have contacted their representatives including Obama and ripped them a new  for sitting on their doing nothing?

It is unclear what the federal government can do to protect people here, since there is no vaccine available for Ebola. The president just last week issued orders for 5000 military to be sent to Liberia to build hospitals and try to stop the disease where it started, and authorized millions of dollars to be spent to stop the spread of this disease.
