    Obama spoke at the CDC in Atlanta on Tuesday
    'We have to act fast,' he warned; 'We can't dawdle on this one'
    The president was briefed by infectious disease experts and spoke briefly about what he said was the largest international relief effort in the agency's history
    The US is mounting an effort to provide clinic facilities, hazmat suits, medicines, and epidemic-control measures
    The White House announced Monday night that 3,000 military troops will go to Liberia
    One senator said 'we must take the dangerous, deadly threat of Ebola as seriously as we take ISIS,' the Islamist terror group

What we can't "dawdle on" is the necessity of immediately securing our national borders.

"If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge
