Comments on: Campaign questions, the world’s worst government agency, and medical lobbies http://blogs.reuters.com/stories-id-like-to-see/2012/01/17/campaign-questions-the-worlds-worst-government-agency-and-medical-lobbies/ Steven Brill Wed, 19 Jun 2013 10:00:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: eleno http://blogs.reuters.com/stories-id-like-to-see/2012/01/17/campaign-questions-the-worlds-worst-government-agency-and-medical-lobbies/comment-page-1/#comment-98 eleno Fri, 20 Jan 2012 00:07:01 +0000 http://blogs.reuters.com/stories-id-like-to-see/?p=101#comment-98 It is obvious that Brill is a tub thumping Democrat. Not once did I see him ask questions of the Obama campaign leading up to the election. And let's face it Obama's past with affiliations to Wright and Ayres just might be a tad murky. But on such matters the supposedly trenchant Brill was silent. In fairness, as Gordon has pointed out, Brill's questions are trivial. Far bigger questions would be what is your plan for the US economy. You claim business experience Mr Romney so what do recommend? And why should we take note and listen (after all the previous salesman promised much and delivered little). It is obvious that Brill is a tub thumping Democrat.

Like how does he intend to get us out of this mess? I would think questions like jobs (real ones, not "Obama jobs"), the massive $15 trillion (and climbing) national debt, and his tax policies (which from what I can tell, is going to be like reelecting Bush II all over again)might be likely candidates.
