Andrew Speaker says he's being unfairly attacked for his decision to fly to Europe and get married after being diagnosed with a rare form of tuberculosis.

It seems self-evident that Andrew Speaker is a bonafide idiot. God only knows the strings that were pulled for him to earn a law degree.
However, the CDC is certainly not blameless, if we are to believe Speaker's version of the meeting in Atlanta. We can check his dad's Treo to verify the accuracy. If the CDC's intent was to forbid Speaker from flying, especially flying abroad, then they should have made that fact crystal clear. It appears that they left it up to his judgement. Now I hope they realize, that was bad judgement on their part.
There are, no doubt, offenses committed by Mr. Speaker during this affair, that are totally independent of the poor judgement of the CDC. He should be prosecuted vigorously for these. And the CDC should carefully review its quarantine policies.
