calfoxwc Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Smoke and mirrors, smoke and mirrors. I can hear Shep cough now. Obama is helping "the man"... ************************* Obama helps strengthen General Electric-Putin ties By: Timothy P. Carney Examiner Columnist 09/17/09 2:06 PM EDT Reuters reports an interesting nugget in the wake of President Barack Obama's decision to grant Vladimir Putin his wish and kill the Eastern European missile shield: Shortly after the pullback on the shield programme was announced, Russia's government said Prime Minister Vladimir Putin would meet several U.S. executives on Friday from firms including General Electric, Morgan Stanley as well as TPG, one of the world's largest private equity firms General Electric may be the company with the closest ties to the Obama administration (if not, GE is second only to Goldman Sachs), and here we see the company benefiting from an abrupt foreign policy change made by President Obama. But GE isn't the only company benefiting. Reuters paints the broader picture: "U.S. companies have arguably lost out to some European companies in joint ventures, and better diplomacy will likely improve the chances for investors in the strategic sectors of the Russian economy," said Carlo Gallo, senior Russia analyst at London-based consultancy Control Risks. GE CEO Jeff Immelt sits on Obama's Economic Recovery Advisory Board, and GE owns MSNBC, the network famously friendly to Obama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. T Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Given the current state of the economy, disregarding whatever Bernanke says, this leaves an unsettlingly feeling. But why wouldn't Obama call upon his Comrad Putin to bail his ass out? Kinda makes you wonder if they ran out of paper or ink at the government print shop. $$??

calfoxwc Posted September 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Not true, even in this thread, some immature whined about the content of the article I posted. I didn't write the article, and it's true. Is there ANYTHING you can muster that would be considered an intelligent reply to the content of the thread? ANY THREAD?
