Good. The great zero needs to realize that he works for us, not the other way around.

After about 30 seconds of Zero’s zeroing, the three call-ins should have, inexplicably, “lost” their phone connection and then, just as inexplicably, “found themselves” unable to reestablish it. Busy shoveling snow, perhaps.
Or were they shoveling something else?

After being called to the woodshed last year, forced to submit to an attempted geither-bamster buyout/takeover, and now being publicly pilloried for the problems caused by Congressional looting of the banking system - and billed for lunch at the WH to boot!
the bigs paid off their TARP loans and showed ZERo he could “shove it” when it comes to dictating to them how to run their banks
It is interesting Geldman Sucks blew off a meeting with bam
Verrry interesting

It was a wise decision on their part. Had they flown in on their Private Jets , Obama would have made that public and chastised them for it.
They saved a lot of Carbon by using the phone.
Other than that lets look at this view. If a man is going to stab you in the back why is it considered polite to make it easy for him?

I would pay big dollars for the BOA CEO to stand up, grab his crotch (on camera of course) and say “Mr. President, lend this.” It’s the only way to put a guy like Obama in his place, and it would really crack the gossamer sphere of undeserved respect this clown seems to think he deserves.

These folks know that a couple of good Senators can carry them a lot farther than a one term president. At some point the real corporate movers and shakers will demand their paid for Senators/Representatives pull Obie back in. Couple this with the fact that many Dems in Congress are already testing the political winds and know that it is an ill wind that follows Obama. Obie will not respond well and will resort to his old Chicago style thug behavior. It is going to get very interesting.

I was laughing yesterday,watching obama on the speaker phone.
I used to be chief pilot for a medium sized company and I can remember being told the weather is just too bad today...I'll conference call that son of a gun.
Yesterday was a classic corporate blow off.

“Inclement weather,” sir, is just the Wall-Street vernacular for “Eff you.”
