Picture 1057.pngAs you’re likely aware, Lloyd Blankfein spoke to a conference of the Council of Institutional Investors this morning. He said we need “some degree” of government oversight on hedge funds and private equity and that “we should apply basic standards to how we compensate people in our industry.” Way more importantly, he interfaced with a coupla members of Code Pink, those ladies who’ve been showing up at congressional hearings wearing homemade tee-shirts and bearing signs with demands like “Give our $ back!” Two of ‘em made their way all the way to the stage and exchanged words with Blanks, who whispered something to one of them, causing her to smile and move her ass out of the way. But what?! We’ll post footage as soon as it’s available, but in the meantime, feel free to take a stab.

    He also said the gov should let him hire more H1B visa hires. I guess the USA doesn’t have enough idle talent.

    Why does that one protest hate the North Vietnamese?

    When I saw 7s comments, I thought they were being cheeky. Then 28 followed up; really? The Code Pink woman is clearly unable to pen, and combined a C with a lowercase R to get what looks like a G. But it says Crooks, not Gooks.
