If Gibbs denies it, then the WH is running the case.
Pray for America
Any mention of the 969,000dlrs that Obama’s campiagn took from Goldman, Gibbsy?
LOL! That's some funny stuff.
The managers of the Obama Campaign bought the ad rights for “Goldman Sachs SEC” search on GOOGLE to be used as a fundraising tool.

Since when did Rahm start letting a perfectly good crisis got to waste?
Sure. Purely coincidental; we believe ya...
It has absolutely nothing to do with Barney Frank/Obama’s desire to seize control of the nations banking sector??
Yes we believe you Mr. President..
When Obama goes down, so will Pelosi and the others.
Well I don’t see what the problem could be. Everybody knows Mr. Gibbs would never lie.
Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said the White House "absolutely" did not have advance notice that the Securities and Exchange Commission would announce its case on Friday.
Mister Clinton was an expert at parsing false statements, in order for them to sound like something completely different from their true but hidden meaning. Sophistry is one word for it.
For Mister Obama? It's sophistry squared.
For example, in 2008 Senator Obama said that if he is elected that anyone earning less than a 250 K$ “will not see their taxes increase by a single dime”; cynically wanting his hysterical peeps to overlook that taxes could go up a zillion "dimes", just not a "single" dime.
Re the Gibbs quotation, Mister Gibbs did not say that the WH had nothing to do with the SEC case; (I'd bet they did)
He merely said that they had no advance notice as to the announcement day. If one thinks about it a few seconds, the WH could have said to the SEC to announce on Friday (but don't give us a confirmation so we can lie more convincingly.)

Surely the RATs will give the millions they got in donations from GS to some charity.
Second, The Telegraph.co.uk reports Still not to happy with Goldman-Sachs is CHINA: The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC)accused Goldman, among other banks, of peddling "complex products ... with evil intentions".
In going back over US-China-Goldman Sachs family tree roots, Deborah Lehr, a former official in the U.S. Trade Representative's office who previously worked for Stonebridge China with offices in Shanghai and Beijing represented American and Chinese companies with extensive ties with Chinese officials. Lehr's husband, John Rogers, was Treasury Sec. Hank Paulson's chief of staff at Goldman Sachs. Paulson (the Bolten White House)along with team of personal advisers from Goldman Sachs, brought Lehr to the Treasury as his special adviser on China. Lehr resigned for personal reasons a few weeks after the China trip.
Present Time: April 13, 2010: The BBC reported that Chinese President Hu Jintao who has been resisting pressure from President Obama to raise the value of the Chinese yuan, told Obama that the Chinese were preparing to change their policy on the yuan in their own time. This meeting gave to widespread speculation of a possibility trade war within the year between the two Super Powers. Something the Administration does not need added to its bucket of troubles over joblessness, and a troubled economy in general. With millions of Chinese relocating into the cities for industrialized work, the Chinese government must create jobs. The undervaluation of China's currency creates jobs, at the expense of American workers estimated at some 1.4 million American jobs so far.
China has threatened it could dump a few hundred billion dollars worth of Treasuries on the international market decreasing the dollar value, with other countries following suit. These actions, TIME reports "would damage investor sentiment towards the U.S. economy and make it harder for Washington to finance its giant budget deficits, ObamaCare etc, while the short-term costs to the Chinese of such an action would not likely be very large."
Obama & Rahm E. raised more money from financial services players than any previous presidential candidate, but no one or group is safe from becoming a sacrificial offering when the political need arises.
That could tie the Administration in with the action by the SEC; because everything is not always as it appears.
Just a thought.
Two questions:
1) Who asked that question?
2) How long before they get to ask another one?
Seriously, did someone in the press corp finally grow a pair?
