Larry 'I Wrecked The Harvard Endowment' Summers As Realized In Cinema From 'The Social Network'
Evidently, this meeting with the Winklevoss dipshits was before Larry's afternoon nap. Had Summers invested just $1 million from the Harvard endowment in Zuckerberg's idea for a college-only social network, he would have made at least $1 billion (first investors in FB earned more than 1,000 times their investment with the IPO, and Harvard could have been the very first).

Nancy DeParle, then director of the White House Office of Health Reform, wrote the following email to PhRMA’s chief lobbyist on June 3, 2009: “Yes – I pushed this to everyone (Messina, Rahm) is in Egypt with POTUS but Phil Schrillo, Dana Singlser and I made decision, based on how constructive you guys have been, to oppose importation on this bill.”
That September, top PhRMA lobbyist Bryant Hall reported to his coworkers in an email that he “had a good call w Messina,” and wrote: “Confidential: WH is working on some very explicit language on importation to kill it in health care reform. This has to stay quiet.”
