Movers, shakers and canapes – a typical Davos scene [Laurent Gillieron/EPA]
…and just zoom from international conference to international conference. Bloviating and accomplishing nothing.
A plan.
And, a job. I think they go for the free food and …oh… the night action, shall we say. Plus ca change.
Talk about a bunch that should be put on enforced video conferencing. Our man in Davos is Larry Summers. And entourage of course.
If they’d shift the conference to somewhere in the Pacific region, in the heat, the ptb would be sending Ob…
Bless them, every one.
hmmm According to UK Times, Blankfein set to get 100m bonus.
And why would Blankfein not do just as he pleases? Who owns who after all.
None other than Brooks, a year or more ago in the NYT, blithely stated at the close of a column that G-S runs the government. Fingers everywhere, hands and feet too.
“This is Lloyd thumbing his nose at Obama,”
Thumbing? His nose? At Obama?
I think it’s doing something else, with something else, at almost everybody else.
oh i agree with that…………..
Too bad these people are so insulated you can’t Fuld* them.
*Based on the apocryphal story about a disgruntled Lehman employee knocking out Richard Fuld in the company gym.
a disgruntled Lehman employee knocking out Richard Fuld in the company gym.
I so hope that happened…
Are those canapes for the survivors in Haiti?
Oh – what was I thinking??
… well maybe as a chaser to the pepper spray.
Wht a nightmre of nightmres..
Right on schedule, MO’s xanax infused plea for Haiti appeared on my TeeVee…
Synchronicity lives.
Active CIA Moonlighting for Wall Street…
Politico is billing it as an exclusive scoop.. As if.
As Gates is about to announce US Military Doctrine shifting away from Major Two Front War “capabilty” as if that’s been working out – …but, also, hooray right? Nah , you know better.
The shift is in favor of more numerous batshit insane conflicts of every size, shape and style worldwide..
Should be interesting When the DoD just upfront via POLICY allows field commanders to ‘moonlight” , too. Lord knows we don’t want to lose that talent outright to the private sector criminal cartels
Settle in to the new world mercenary order.
Hmm. I see Panetta is waiting tables in Israel over the last few…
New meaning to “split shifts”……….
Imagine the bastards expensing out at tax time…
Honey? Do we have a receipt for the pliers, garrote, and syringes?
I can’t remember …Did they came from the Agency or did we pick those up for that hit on the leaker at the Bank?
Baucus would be easy to unmask… that is, if the Dems wanted to. Remember that looooooooooooooong summer (and fall and early winter) with the HC Ins Reform bullscheisse? Prepare for another go round, this time iwth JOBS.
Should go down well …
Politico
Even what is mentioned in the article that may or may not (Baucus has issues and really who knows who he is fronting for) as a part of a jobs bill is small and … well small.
I suppose it CAN get smaller…………………………
OK!!
I am suggesting something similar to the Royal Endorsement that appears on goods in the UK, ”Purveyors to…”, etc.
Maybe a nice cartouche emblazoned with tanks and missiles: The chocolate that goes to war, endorsed by the really big guns in DC. Something like that….
Via Mike Allen’s Playbook:
They should work Forrest Gump in there somehow…
“Afghanistan is like a box of chocolates…”
“Predator drones are like a box of chocolates…you shoot missles off them you never know what you’re gonna hit.
All Somalia needs is chocolate! And we will deliver, by any means necessary!
hmm I slept thru most of the morning, so I am catching up… Just hearing that Toyota, at least according to La Hood, only issued the recall as he asked them to………………
LAT has reported there are 19 deaths and I see that number is getting picked up.
Geesh.
Last thread… Dan Cantor, said, a prelude to a campaign on the issue.
He was my boss in my first job in NYC… Didn’t know he was still with WFP.
Yeah I don’t pay a lot of attention to polls… sometimes Pew… or if a lot of polls come in close on something… but found that survey from WFP interesting.
Think the WH is being … well stupid actually … assuming people will troop back in 2010 and 2012. which they may very well do.
Who knows……………
Use white phosphorus to level the UN compound in Gaza and get your wrist slapped. (And, of course, after the Israeli gov’t has been screaming ‘innocent!’ over the contents since it was released this shows that it knows crimes were committed.)
And if they do it again, why… someone will kick their ankles …while wearing soft rubber padded shoes.
The mills of justice grind…………….. somewhere else!
lagging:
Wonder how many “Gen44″ they will get, at 100. Much less 250.
GOOD LUCK!
