The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) did not have adequate protocols in place, and two Dallas nurses caught the virus as a result. One of the nurses who contracted Ebola even received approval from the CDC to travel on Frontier Airlines, despite having a slight fever.
These errors have lent themselves to the narrative that Obama has mishandled the crisis. The most prominent example comes from Joshua Green in Bloomberg Businessweek. “It didn’t require extraordinary foresight to anticipate the public freakout once the infection spread beyond [Thomas Eric] Duncan,” Green wrote. “The crisis required more of [Obama] than he seemed to recognize. But he was hampered by the same things that have plagued him all along: a liberal technocrat’s excess of faith in government’s ability to solve problems and an unwillingness or inability to demonstrate the forcefulness Americans expect of their president in an emergency.”
Green’s article criticizes Obama’s entire style of crisis management. (The piece is titled, “Obama Is Too Cool for Crisis Management.”) The White House has faced this critique frequently over the past year, from both the left and right, as it has rushed from one crisis to the next."* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
