Community organizer to the rescue…
President Bush called the Chicago politician to Washington DC to help with the global financial crisis.
Here’s the video:
Or go here if it won’t play.
Obama has accepted the invitation.
Once again… It looks like he’ll be following John McCain.
Michelle Malkin and Political Punch reported:
ABC News has learned that President Bush called Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., this evening and invited him to participate in a meeting about the Wall Street bailout bill tomorrow afternoon in Washington, DC, with other congressional leaders, including Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.
Obama accepted the president’s invitation, a source tells ABC News.
The invitation comes at an interesting time. The President has not been in the middle of negotiations with Congress, leaving that task to his Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson.
Maybe Obama will bring his buddy and former Fannie Mae Chairman Jim Johnson with him?
UPDATE: President Bush warned America that a recession is possible if Congressional leaders do not get together and resolve this crisis.
