Obama urges business heads to push Congress in support of climate and energy bill
*snip*
Obama made the plug during a meeting Friday with his Economic Recovery Advisory Board, which includes the heads of General Electric, Caterpillar and Oracle, along with labor leaders and economists.
He told the group the climate bill which would cap global warming emissions is good for business and that members of Congress need to hear that.
"Individual members of Congress may be worried about the implications, at least short term," of voting for the legislation, and hearing from businesses would be reassuring, Obama said. The more business can be out front" the better, he said.

Zero will do more damage to the financial heart of the U.S. than Bin Laden could in his wildest dreams.
I’m not into boycotts but the businesses who go along with this thievery need to become part of a Mother of All Boycotts list. They can either side with their customers or they can side with the false “messiah”. The choice is theirs.
The Marxist Kenyan is insane and has forgot what country he is in.
Is there a business that isn’t “green?” I look for labels that don’t promote how green the product and company are. It’s all so damned fake.
Huh?
awesome :)
It’s sad we have a President that hates our country.
I agree with your statement, although I am boycotting GE whenever I can these days. The problem with GE is that they could care less right now about customers. They are looking to the government for its future revenue. Pleasing the government is easier than understanding and then pleasing the mass market.
I’m sure he asked...in the same way Frank Nitti asked speakeasy owners to buy Al Capone’s rotgut hooch.
“It’s not s’posed to be good...it’s supposed to be BOUGHT!”
What change? I haven’t got any left once my rent and bills are paid. I try and survive on $74 per month for groceries and other necessites and that is extremely difficult. What was worse was asking the management company of this less than 400 sq ft room to fix my fridge starting last July. They ignored me and kept ignoring me so two weeks ago my fridge became all freezer ruining all the food in the fridge and freezing my insulin. I was NOT impressed!
It sure drives up product prices, and that's what the big players want.
Yes, we need to defeat these bastards.
This is based on scientific insanity. It only makes sense if you want to intentionally do great harm the nation.
Thanx for the ping, Army Air Corps !
>>>He told the group the climate bill . . . is good for business . . .
Well, I’m really glad to have that assurance from someone so obviously business-savvy as the Community Agitator in Chief.
Leave the climate alone, idiot. You’re not God, thankfully, though you like to playact that you are.
He's a two-bit skinny little thug...NOT a President.
Maybe some payback could befall them.
“Don’t think we’re not keeping score, brother.” That’s what President Barack Obama said to Rep. Peter DeFazio in a closed-door meeting of the House Democratic Caucus last week, according to the Associated Press.

More and more, I think there’s an understood “OR ELSE”
in their ‘suggestions.’
