		<description>I&#039;m sure that Mr. Summers will do the right thing and give this money back, in acknowledgement of the fact that so many have fallen on hard times lately.  It does appear down right gluttonous to accept millions from wall street when millions are unemployed.</description>

		<description>Ironic that Summers is the guy who got canned by Harvard for sayin&#039; women are bad at math.

Hey, Lar! can you tell the American public what your economic plan&#039;s debt to gdp ratio is? More than 100%?! Do Tell!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m sure Larry means well.

And 5.2 million is only 3.1% of 167 Million.

And Larry is a big-time Obamy booster.

So what&#039;s the problem?</description>

		<description>Lot&#039;s of advisors who only gave a expensive speech&#039;s that were ineffective, and so much for Obama&#039;s anti-lobbyist hiring.
