GE CEO - Jeffrey Immelt: 'Iraq is going smoothly, better than expected.'
Edited on Mon Jul-12-04 10:54 PM by dArKeR
I saw him on Nightly Business Report, Monday July 12, 2004. This was him talking about the business prospects of GE in Iraq. And he's happy to be there. And Iraq's electrical system is 30% GE from previous business dealings with Iraq. (Which he didn't explain.)
Said GE has plenty of workers on the ground and GE is committed.

Wonder if he has been touring the electrical facilities?

It's absolutely amazing what I see in my 4 minutes of TV watching per day! You'd think if some 'honest' (honesty in the media) watch group recorded 1 weeks TV events they'd have enough evidence to prove RICO in any court of law.

1. Paging Mr. Immelt.
Please pick up the white courtesy clue phone.
Iraq is a cluster-fuck.

He is blinded by double digit margin signs in his eyes.

3. Translation
"We're stealing so much money, you'd think we had our own government printing press. Come to think of it, we do! Hee, hee, hee! Let the good times roll!"

5. He also said the economy is the best in years
They are still trying to get Bush to let them off the hook for cleaning up brownfields that they created.

in 2000 Jack Welsh was in the NBC newsroom ordering them to call it for Bush. They just whore for him.
