Guess who came to the White House?
Edited on Thu Dec-31-09 12:05 AM by lib2DaBone
Further research shows that Goldman Sach's CEO Lloyd Blankfein pretty much spent the entire day at the White House on October 29. He met with the president twice that day (one meeting had 119 attendees the other 16). On that day he also met one-on-one with Larry Summers. He also met one-on-one with Summers on February 4.

On October 29, Jamie Dimon met with the president twice, it appears in the same meetings as Blankfein. He also met on that day with Larry Summers but with another person present. He also met one-on-one with Rahm Emanuel that day, something Blankfein did not get to do.

Steven Rattner, who for a time ran the government's auto task force and is co-founder of the investment firm, Quadrangle Group, met with Larry Summers over 25 times.

Microsoft's Steve Ballmer met with Summers once. George Soros met with Summers in February.

4. And Andy Stern (SEIU) was the most frequent guest
apparently appearing on the list more than any other visitor.

So what's your point?

7. Look at em'.....LOOK.AT.THEM!
Old, rich, white guys.....who are "Concerned"

They're not 'concerned' about *you*, unless *you* are an old, rich, white guy who worked and saved, and your family has *worked and saved* and they're gonna take your money too! They will. They really will. *They* (the corporate 'borg') doesn't care about *you* AT ALL. The Corporation isn't programmed to recognize "the individual". In fact, the corporation abhors the individual.
