Instead of Appointing a Medical Expert, Obama Appoints a LOBBYIST as Ebola Czar
Whats He Going To Do Lobby To Convince Congress That Ebola Is Not That Big A Risk? Yes hire a lawyer for pandemic issues... Obama has appointed Ron Klain as the Ebola Czar. Klain has no medical or healthcare background whatsoever <http://washington.cbslocal.com/2014/10/17/obamas-new-ebola-czar-does-not-ha ve-medical-health-care-background/> . Instead, hes a high-powered lobbyist. He helped the corrupt <http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/10/christopher-whalen-freddie-and-fanni e-helped-to-create-epidemic-of-mortgage-fraud.html> Fannie Mae to overcome <http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/11/14/AR200811140 3922.html> regulatory issues in 2004. Wikipedia notes <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Klain#Lobbying> : Klain [helped in] convincing Congress and Fannie Maes regulators that Fannie Mae wasnt doing anything dangerous, and wasnt exposing taxpayers to risk. In other words, Ron Klain got paid to help fuel the housing bubble up until a couple of years before it popped. Klain also <http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/11/14/AR200811140 3922.html> : Represented a company facing asbestos-exposure lawsuits, the embattled drugmaker ImClone and two companies trying to win support for large mergers. Whats he going to do lobby to convince Congress that Ebola is not that big a risk? Klain is also a major Democratic operative, serving as Chief of Staff for Vice Presidents Al Gore and Joe Biden <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Klain#Career> . As such, it is not unlikely that he will be motivated to cover up for any missteps by Obama and CDC chair Tom Frieden. <http://edge.liveleak.com/80281E/ll_a_s/2014/Oct/17/LiveLeak-dot-com-acb_141 3586795-klain_1413586929.jpg?d5e8cc8eccfb6039332f41f6249e92b06c91b4db65f5e99 818bdd695484dd9df29bd&ec_rate=230> Matt Stoller a Democrat who knows as much about D.C. politics as anyone notes <https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/523124038022234112> : Ron Klain is a fixer who is well-connected and knows his way around the exec branch.His skill is fixing PR problems, not logistics.
