President Barack Obama has not ruled out sabotage in the near-panic on Wall Street Thursday afternoon.
White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Obama's economic team was jolted by the news and met with Obama shortly after the market plunged.
The president announced Friday morning that a full review is being conducted, and Gibbs said Obama is waiting to hear the results of a review before ruling out what might have caused it, including the possibility of sabotage.
“I wouldn’t rule anything in or rule anything out,” Gibbs told reporters in his West Wing office Friday. “I think that’s, appropriately, why they’re reviewing what may or may not have happened.”

Had a couple of conversations/phone calls floating this idea on Wall
St — Goldman tanked the market temporarily to send the message to Obama
and his posse to back off

Sabotage? Of course.
Certainly its not a sudden realization that the whole world is going the way of Greece.

With the track record to date; we can’t believe a thing that Obama and his crew say anyway.

White House doesn't Rule Out Sabotage In Market Fluctuation They ought to know, the September 2008 crisis certainly cleared the way for Obama to take the White House.
2008 was a coincidence? I don't think so.

Of course it was. He’s been sabotaging the economy for some time now.

eric holder will see to it that misconduct or willful negligence is found. but what the obamites won’t tell you is that they think that merely being a wall street trader qualifies as criminality.

The only way to stop this type of thing is for the government to take over the floor of the stock market...right???
Or impose penalties on those who made more than $100 in a day...right??

Everyhting should be free and equal and given to me by the government!
