What do the heads of Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Microsoft, Motorola, General Electric, Boeing and the Carlyle Group have in common? They all attended last night's State Dinner with President Hu Jintao. Earlier the White House announced $45 billion in new trade deals with China, including a $19 billion deal with Boeing and a package with GE expected to generate more $2 billion in U.S. exports. Some economists say the deals will hurt U.S. efforts to end the jobless Great Recession. "President Obama has assumed the position of salesman-in-chief for companies like Boeing and General Electric who are actually engaged--along with many other multinational businesses--primarily in outsourcing U.S. jobs to China," says guest Robert Scott, Senior International Economist with the Economic Policy Institute.

1. Gary Locke -- Commerce Secretary

I knew the fix was in when Obama hired this weasel -- dino -- for a cabinet post.
The second thing Locke did when he was elected Governor here is take off to China on a two week trade junket with Boeing and Microsoft.But right before he left for China he took the time to ax 23 mil. from WA.'s public education budget.
Locke has been shipping jobs out of the U.S. ever since.He is a real slow motion S.O.B..
