"President Obama Examines John Boehner’s New Tanning Bed at General Electric Factory" (GE)

Here's a gentle poke at the Speaker.
Because at Climateer Investing we're nothing if not equal opportunity,
We'll be back with more on the new chairman of the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.
His record at GE, the destruction of shareholder wealth, the shipping jobs to China programs, the bailouts and guarantees, crony capitalism, Mussolini style corporatism and power elites, the 3.6% tax rate, subsidies and Davos, all in good fun, of course.
From New York Magazine's Daily Intel:
