Political Deflection Makes My Blood Boil

He's beginning to make me angry now. Check out this interview with Gordon Brown.

Interviewer:
"...you also told us, as Chancellor, you ended boom and bust..."
GB:
"What I said is we're not going to return to 15% interest rates like we had under the last world downturn."

No. I distinctly remember you saying multiple times we weren't returning to boom and bust. And I'm getting sick to death of his smugness as he's trying to score points off the Tories when thousands are losing their jobs and seeing their pensions flunk on the Stock Exchange. There's little more disturbing than world leaders that can't take responsibility for their actions.

What I'd like to see is every journalist take a transcript or video recording of one of the numerous times he has spoken about ending boom and bust and go Paxman on him, refusing to go on with the interview until he has answered the question. That'll put an end to his propaganda as he launches into answering his own question.
