Pentagon closes access due to Ebola scare, officials said.

The actions were triggered shortly after 9 a.m. when police found a woman on a tour bus in the parking lot who was ill and vomiting; she told officers she had recently visited West Africa.

The Arlington County Fire Department’s emergency medical and hazardous materials teams responded and took command of the scene, cordoning off the area around the bus.

The 12 other tour bus passengers were moved to another bus parked on Virginia Avenue. (Huh?? Why weren’t they quarantined too, they were potentially exposed to a woman that was possibly highly contagious, if she was visible ill due to Ebola.) The ill woman was taken to Fairfax Inova Hospital, where a quarantine tent was set up in front of the building. There was no immediate word on the woman’s condition.

Joe Biden’s Son Hunter Kicked Out of Navy for Cocaine (Wish we could test the VP too)

Vice President Joe Biden’s son was booted from the Navy Reserve because he tested positive for drugs, it was revealed on Thursday.
A U.S. official told NBC News that Hunter Biden was kicked out of the Reserve earlier this year after he failed a drug test.

The official said Biden failed the test in 2013, but he was not kicked out until Feb. 14 of this year. Senior U.S. officials told NBC News that Biden, 44, tested positive for cocaine.

Obama’s Credit Card Rejected: While signing an executive order aimed to help protect consumers from financial fraud on Friday, President Barack Obama revealed he recently had his credit card declined at a New York City restaurant.

“It turned out, I guess, I don’t use it enough to so they thought there was some fraud going on,” Obama said. (They suspected Obama of fraud? No!)

Local news: ER-today – “The members of the Chico Police Officers’ Association are proud to announce the full endorsement of Andrew Coolidge, Mark Sorensen and Reanette Fillmer for Chico City Council. These candidates have shown their commitment not only to the City of Chico, but to your local law enforcement.” (I could not agree more, we need Fillmer, Sorensen and Coolidge, we need their intelligent, business wise leadership to get Chico out of the millions in debt our reckless and irresponsible liberals put us in. Simply put – we need adults on the council for a change! )
