It's no coincidence that Obama's daughters are being home schooled this week, Michelle cancelled her trip to Palm Springs Monday and Obama has now cancelled his fundraising trips.
There was one major indication Wednesday of just how seriously the White House takes the threat posed by Ebola: for the first time, President Obama has canceled fund raising trips.Sooooo, either the Obama family is holing up in the White House because they don't want to be exposed to Ebola, or this is the worse crisis Obama has faced and it's really serious, in either case the public isn't be told.
Amid crisis after crisis, Obama has soldiered on with his schedule despite calls for him to cut short fundraising trips and getaways. The White House has repeatedly said that the president is able to do his job from wherever he may be, thanks to technology and staff that travels with him. Jennifer Palmieri, the White House communications director, told The New York Times. “Abrupt changes to his schedule can have the unintended consequence of unduly alarming the American people or creating a false sense of crisis.”
