is entirely made up of government spending which is funded by debt, which doesn't bother DU.

15. +1. You're an IDIOT if you don't realize that what's good for Goldman Sachs is good for America.

[Obamanaut]

16. On the plus side, making him treasury secretary got him to pay his

back IRS taxes. Oh, but with no penalty of course, because he didn't mean not to pay taxes for those several years, just an oversight.

edited to change a word - wrong word, but it was spelled correctly

[Fumesucker]

17. You found a pic of his good side I see. recced..

22. I'll say one thing in Tim Geithner defense...

He's probably a megasmidge better than Judd Gregg...

[AllentownJake]

23. I don't know

You read about the report of the AIG bailout and as bad as Gregg is, I don't know if he would have the balls to give foreign banks bailout money $ for $ on their derivatives funnled through AIG.

[dixiegrrrrl]

I shudder to think how much trouble we would be in if not for Timmy.
( but don't you think he looks a lot like Elliot Ness?)
