Larry Summers falls asleep while Obama talks
Quote:
Larry Summers, the president's top financial adviser, apparently isn't getting a lot of sleep.

For that or some other reason, as President Obama spoke to reporters inside the White House Thursday following a meeting with credit card company executives, Summers was photographed clearly asleep at the end of a table in the Roosevelt Room.

Here's a link to the pictures.

This isn't the first time this has happened. Summers reportedly fell asleep during an economic summit at the White House in February, but there were no cameras at that event.

This time there will be pictures of Summers, hand in chin - and what's worse - as the president is speaking.


Those pictures are too funny.

In jest, I bet some people would be making an uproar if the president's top financial advisor was well-rested!

And even more jokingly (I think), I've been there before!

I just hope you weren't sleeping in the Credit Card Company shakedown meeting...

Haha, poor guy, I hate when I have to go to something important and that happens to me. That feeling that you can't keep your eyelids from going down no matter what you do really sucks. XD

It's hard to stay awake in government meetings. Sometimes in two days of it only an hour applies to you. Need to put tacks in your shoe to keep from passing out. :\
