Boy Does Lloyd Blankfein Wish He Had Attended Obama's Sitdown In D.C., Instead Of Calling A Fog Audible

The passive-aggressive President appears to still be upset at Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein for failing to show at a President Obama called sit-down in D.C. because of fog, even though JPMorgan's  Jamie Dimon showed at the sit-down by flying in the night before.

Now, this report from Reuters:
Goldman Sachs Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein has hired high-profile Washington defense attorney Reid Weingarten, according to a government source, as the Justice Department continues to investigate the bank.
Yikes, you don't hire Weingarten to get you out of a speeding ticket. Blankfein is sweating.

I think this may have more to do with the way u.s. treasuries are sold to and from the u.s. government and the fact that the u.s. government/goldman sachs relationship has been exposed to the public. Damage control is what they call it, i think.
