So he’s usually drunk. I see. Thats how the MSM would twist it.
“They are looking for action from Washington, bold and swift.”
I doubt that. The Capitalists I know in the Real World want Government OUT OF THE WAY.
Like to see a republican with the courage to say: This is NOT the worst economy since the depression, that is a scare tactic being used to get wwhatever Obama wants.
If this is the worst then Obama should be run out of office for squandering so much money at such a time.
Since when does Obamunism like capitalists and capitalism??
“They understand when it comes to rebuilding our economy, we don’t have a moment to spare,” Mr. Obama said of the chief executive officers attending the meeting. “They are looking for action from Washington, bold and swift.”
...they do huh? Yeah, they didn’t build their business on that stupid old capitalism BS. The Government gave them life ~sarc. DummyOTUS B.Hussein
All Tech companies:

They aren’t sober.
They are dunk on tax money and high on bailouts.
1600 Pennsylvania Ave. is now Studio 54.
It would be interesting to cross-reference that list with their 2008 campaign contributions.
Mr. Obama? Nice to see them showing the same respect they showed President Bush. And I’m not being sarcastic!
I’m confident these CEO’s agreed with 0 that the $50 million ‘economic stimulus’ for the National Endowment for the Arts would help get the economy back on track.
He really means he wants to get that $825 billion economic stimulus package passed before the peons actually find out about the pork & social programs that are in it - with nothing much to help the economy at all.
It IS good for making government more powerful & gaining more votes for the RAT party & getting the Zero re-elected.
They want to get their (our) money before everything goes to hell in a handbasket. Next up on their agenda, retirement in Costa Rica.
In other words, they want Obama and the clowns in Congress to give them lots of your money.
And, they want it now!

I believe Senator Sessions already has granted your wish. The only down side was that he threw Bush under the bus to do it, i.e. accusing Obama of using the same scare tactics as the Bush administration.
A “very sober meeting”? What a choice of words.
