Goldman's White House connections raise eyebrows
While He Met with Goldman Sachs Brass 4 Times at White House]
WASHINGTON — While Goldman Sachs' lawyers negotiated with the Securities and Exchange Commission over potentially explosive civil fraud charges, Goldman's chief executive visited the White House at least four times.
White House logs show that Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein traveled to Washington for at least two events with President Barack Obama, whose 2008 presidential campaign received $994,795 in donations from Goldman's employees and their relatives. He also met twice with Obama's top economic adviser, Larry Summers.
No evidence has surfaced to suggest that Blankfein or any other Goldman executive raised the SEC case with the president or his aides. SEC Chairwoman Mary Schapiro said in a statement Wednesday that the SEC doesn't coordinate enforcement actions with the White House or other political bodies.
Meanwhile, however, Goldman is retaining former Obama White House counsel Gregory Craig as a member of its legal team. In addition, when he worked as an investment banker in Chicago a decade ago, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel advised one client who also retained Goldman as an adviser on the same $8.2 billion deal.

70% of likely Arizona voters agree with the new immigration bill that was signed into law today.
Only 23% of likely voters in Arizona agree with Barack Obama and oppose the bill.
So, who’s the misguided one?

NumbersUSA reported:
A new Rasmussen poll reveals that 70% of likely voters in Arizona support the new illegal immigration bill passed by the State Legislature. Only 23% oppose the bill. If signed into law, the bill would make it a crime to be in the state of Arizona illegally.
Kliphnote: Does Obama think no one is watching?

Does Obama think he is above the law?
And his lemmings will say he did nothing wrong.
The same people won't worship God but will worship Obama.
Oh, I forgot, Liberals NEVER do anything wrong.
What a joke.
How many Liberal politicians are cheating on their wife's?
How about Bill Clinton. He has been accused of sexual miss conduct
since he was governor.
Now he is the spokesmen for the US.
The list goes on and on.
