kair a let's talk about the job at hand. what does marissa mayer have to do to turn around yahoo!?os in the last year. come on. struggling for identity. do they need a marketer, an engineer, a sales woman? is she up to the task? >> i don't know. on the pregnancy thing, she did does have a husband that can take care of the baby, too. >> good point. >> it is a very difficult job and one of the problems is that they're painting her as a super woman. steve jobs, coming in and reviving a company. steve jobs was a unique person and founder of the company. very different situation. this is a company in great distress with a lot of problems and internet companies, the young kill their old kind of thing. sometimes they just die like a myspace and sometimes they have troubles like aol, so the question is can she create innovation in a company that's not been innovative for many years and struggled with management? >> it is interesting that you bring up founders. i agree. it is a different approach. a founder will look at his or her business much differently than someone who is a hired hand.

great kair at the denver v.a., just a bit of an inconvenience. i have no complaints about the prosthetic care that i received. i consider myself to be very fortunate where i am vulnerable, uneducated about the process. i worry about those veteran who are not in position to look for themselves and accept what they're told. veterans should have a choice of options when it is desired by a patient. amputee veterans bill of rights i think is critical. i reviewed three reports recently issued by the office of the inspector general and have some general observations to offer this committee. the first is of the $1.8 billion spent by v.a. on prosthetics in fy 2010, only 54% or 3% was spent on prosthetic limbs this is a relatively small portion of dollars spent by the v.a. on a broader category. secondly, the v.a. has a major investment in internal limb prosthetics capacity in 2009 with the development of the amputee system of care program that should be commended for its commitment and focus on important population. the report notes high satisfaction with

i think it's good for the parties to make their kair to the country now and let the people decide howessed. they're very different visions. >> john, it's a provocative point. he's saying this is one of the most crucial elections where we as a nation want to decide what direction are we going? are we going to be more like europe or go back to the history of the united states and go back to that direction. wouldn't it be great to have that decision made and whoever is in charge lay out that plan. >> for once i agree with steve. i think that's exactly what needs to happen. we've tried obama's way, we cried trooid the democrats aae way, we tried massive stimulus and debt. it doesn't work. we got a lousy economy and $15 trillion in debts death. the democrat way has been tried. it's time for a different approach, it's time for spending restraint. it's time for a rational tax system and grow pro-growth policies. >> you're making the assumption that romney wins and that's the assumption you make. >> i am. i think romney will win and i don't expect it to be particularly close. >> i understand
