Dallas mayor Tom Leppert meets with President Obama to mull over the crappy economy
Dallas mayor Tom Leppert will be among a crowd of 64 other big city U.S. mayors (Wait a minute... Burnsville, MN? Scratch that "big city" part) meeting today, Feb. 20, with President Obama at the White House to talk about the crappy economy and what we can all do about it (besides bending over and... you know).
Vice President Joe Biden will be on hand to provide either additional wisdom or comic relief (or perhaps both). Attorney General Eric Holder, HUD Secy. Shaun Donovan, Transportation Secy. Ray LaHood, Energy Secy. Steven Chu, Education Secy. Arne Duncan and White House senior staff will also be attending, so I hope they've scheduled this thing for one of the bigger rooms in the president's official residence.
Maybe the bowling alley?

The mayor of Dallas is going to talk economics with the President? This might be a good laugh. “Hey Mr. President, when your in debt up to your ears,, make the tax payers build you a hotel….”
