11. Geithner will kill this Presidency |
|
if Obama doesn't get rid of him, and soon.
It really couldn't be more blatant that Geithner is working for the crooks on Wall Street, not for the people on Main Street (to overuse a completely hackneyed cliche).

13. I agree, yet there are people here on DU that don't want Geithner to go. |
|
What is that all about??? :wtf: Check out this poll about whether or not to Fire Geithner-the last answer is supposed to be the closest answer to "No": http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x5317194

15. Geithner used to be a Republican |

The Taxpayers should stop wasting thier money by giving it to the Government. Opps.. They will lock you up though.
This insane spending to bail out crooks who created the mess to begin with is beyond asinine!! Vote the Clucking Worthless POS Politicians outta office. It is the only hope for the future of this country!!

Up so that there are no regulations, not now, not ever, regarding the Credit Default Swaps.
We have a situation wherein the cows and horses left the barn, and now, at taxpayer expense, we have new cows and horses, but No Body anywhere, has shut the barn door yet!
