Yeah, probably not, though Page Six claims it so. Supposedly Lar, who took a nice nap last month during a meeting with credit card industry officials, got some shut eye last week during a private meeting with the President. We’re a bit skeptical about this one because a) there were no reporters there, and who is leaking details of one-on-ones* with the Prez and b) after Summers’ penchant for catching a few winks on the job made Obama’s roast during the White House Correspondents Dinner, you’d think he’d be pumping himself full of amphetamines prior to making stops at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
*It’s unclear if the meeting was just Summers and Obama, or if others were there, but the point remains. Unless Joe Biden was on hand, in which case, why didn’t we hear about this sooner?

Too Narco; Didn’t Leptic
If I had to listen to Tax Cheat Timmy and Barry with his halting speech talk I’d fall the fuck asleep too.
@2- Geithner wasn’t there but thanks for playing.
@3 look at the top left photo. Geinther is indeed there. Thanks for trying though.
what a boob
@4- you’re a fucking idiot. that picture is a reference to him falling asleep in the credit card meeting last month, NOT the new report, the one on one meeting with Obama, being discussed in this post/the page six article. got it? don’t bother responding, just slink back to your hole.
I agree with a previous poster – cut the guy some slack – He may just be punching himself in the face. completely plausible.
I think 3 was referring to the newest nap edition of naptime for Premier Summers. In that case, he would be right.
Erin Burnett has on a very nice outfit today. Looks very Palm Beachy
I will go ahead and BB2N myself right now.
Summers didn’t get invited to the Baseball Boondoggle. He deserves our sympathy.
@12 – that’s good, there went my coffee!
re the tag: perhaps you got roofied?
Porker Stansberry would never stand for such insolence at his conference table. Mr. Summers, sir, you are out!
@9, great color on her, and some nice cleavage…maybe she did have them done?
…my jury is still out on that one.
Come one all. The rule on the street is that after an all nighter drinking, snorting and stuffing $100 bills up the cooch of a high priced escort in a private suite you have to show up. He probably came right from the hotel.
Just think of how many time YOU have crawled onto the desk, had an intern get a gallon of coffee and a dozen donuts from Dunkin, scarfed em all down yourself and then an hour later engaged in a massive refunding into a urinal in the men’s room cuz all the stalls were taken?
Cut the guy some slack for snoozin. Jeesh.
Am I the only one that got all hot and bothered after reading that Bess was in prom date mode last night via the Tylenol PMs?!?!
You can take those around me anytime, Bess!

Props to @7 for excellent speculation!!! Still laughing at that one.
Re: the tag, I find it much more effective just to drink myself to sleep.
Where did they find this “Larry Summers” retard?
He’s even dumber than Obama, if that was even possible!!
