And a Founding Father gets thrown under the bus.

Via Washington Times:

The White House insisted Monday that policies to contain Ebola within the U.S. must not serve as a “disincentive” for health care workers who are thinking about fighting the virus in West Africa. […]

His comments came as New Jersey announced it would allow a returning health care worker, Kaci Hickox, to return to her home in Maine and finish out a 21-day quarantine.

New York, Illinois and Florida also have announced special quarantine or monitoring measures for their states, raising concerns that the U.S. approach to fighting Ebola is too fragmented.

“In some ways you can kind of take this up with James Madison,” Mr. Earnest said, referring to the American balance of federal and state powers.
