Okay, Obit. But what more does he want to do that's NOT being done already? This is the first time his spokesweasels have come out and said he is going to talk about shuttering F&F and recommend it to Congress. I guess we have to wait and see what he's actually going to say in his speech. But what timing! What is his strategy here if that is the case? And why now, just a few days before earnings are released?

Okay, I'm holding, but I'm very, very antsy about this. With any luck Obama will say nothing about eliminating F&F directly. And if it's just an indirect remark, hopefully investors will overlook it with record earnings coming up and drive the PPS up regardless.
