According to Bloomberg Business... the heads of Goldman-Sachs,(Vampire Squid, Loyd Blankfein) CitiBank, and JP Morgan (Jamie Diamon) are on their way to meeting with President Obama. Obama is hoping to have them apply pressure to the Repug Congresscritters they donated to. I wondered if Jamie will ask PBO to intervene with Holder at Justice on JP Morgan investigations in a trade for his cracking Congresscritters heads for dropping their demands.

Considering what these three Big Investment Banks owe Obama....here's hoping he pulls in the favors he's owed..big time!
