If Wagner deserved to get booted, they could have found a way to move him out. But, the President calling the shot? Wow.
Does anyone wonder now why Obama wants to meet up with dictatorial rulers?
Off-topic,but Yul was the perfect pick for Pharaoh!
Moses’ God is God!
Wait till they figure out that Wagoner walks away with a 200 million dollar retirement package.
Hope he has security because ACORN will be paying him a visit any minute now.
