Citigroup CEO Pandit says OWS protestors should "come up" for a talk

yeah, right... REAL sincerity would be if pandit would "come on down"...

Vikram Pandit, chief executive officer of Citigroup Inc., said he would be happy to talk with Occupy Wall Street protesters, calling their sentiments “completely understandable.”

[...]

“I’d talk about the fact that they should hold Citi and the financial institutions accountable for practicing responsible finance,” Pandit, 54, said. “I’d be happy to talk to them any time they want to come up.”

he probably doesn't want to risk meeting anybody outside of his fortress and phalanx of security guards...
