Boeing CEO, Jim Albaugh, scoffs at OWS protesters, corrects their information
Edited on Wed Nov-30-11 05:33 PM by Cannikin
"We’re at the Credit Suisse aerospace conference in New York. Occupy Wall Street is demonstrating outside and passed out a flier criticizing defense spending. Boeing is listed as the number 5 defense contractor.

Jim Albaugh, CEO of Boeing Commercial Aircraft, looked at the flier and with his ever-present sense of humor said, “That’s wrong. We’re number 2. Take this out and have them retract this.”

Stay tuned for updates throughout the day."

3. That is only because
the 787 mess was not on the Defense books.

4. He's number 2, all right
And not the kind that's second to the top. I'm talking about the brown stuff.
