(Reuters) - President Barack Obama will name General Electric Co. Chief Executive Jeffrey Immelt to head a new advisory panel focused on promoting economic growth by investing in business, the White House said on Friday.
Promoting economic growth by investing in business sounds like a good thing to me. I'm not sure how any reasonable person could see that as a negative.

GE owned NBC, CNBC, MSNBC during Obama's entire campaign. The whole MSNBC broadcast was a Obama Propaganda Campaign & Obama did not even have to claim that as campaign contributions. Since GE got Obama elected GE Capital got a nice $multi-billion$ bail-out, lucrative wind generator subsidies & any thing else they damn well please from the tax payers courtesy of Obama.

So you endorse Obama's history of political payback to corporate big wigs, yes?

I'm not a rabid Obama-hater, so I'm not able to see it that way. I see investing in business and promoting economic growth as good things, as do most Americans.

So you choose to look the other way even though the federal government chose to categorize GE as a bank so that it could revieve TARP money while it was showing a profit? You look the other way that the incandescent ban law directly benefits GE? You ignore that GE and Immelt have been active the most active endorsers and least critical of the Obama agenda via the NBC/MSNBC networks. You ignore that GE is the largest purchaser (in orders placed) of the Government Motors Volt? You choose to turn a blind eye to the very corporate oligarchical relationship that Progressives blame on Repbulicans when Immelt and Obama are unabashedly and unashamed in same? Is that correct?

OHH you brought up one of my BIGGEST pet peeves out of this deal. I want my light bulbs back! Seriously, the new ones are so much worse for the environment (if that's the argument) and they just suck. Hate the light.
So true on everything else but just couldn't help myself about those darn light bulbs!!

You need to get into the mind of those with Obama Derangement Syndrome. Anything the man says or does has them foaming at the mouth and gnashing their teeth. They wake up each morning driven by their hatred for Obama. It's a sad existence, but their choice.
