If the state governments want something done about the runaway spending by the Federal Government, they have the authority to do something. The U.S. constitution provides for Constitutional Conventions called by the states. Do it. Add a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution.

What am I thinking?? The Dimocrats don’t honor the Constitution now!!

this is hilarious

Congress, the people responsible for our rating downgrade, are demanding that obama fire geithner for causing our debt downgrade. Thats pretty much what I would expect to happen too.

If this exact same situation were to happen with a Republican administration then there would be nonstop bleating from the dems and the media that the president is a proven failure and should immediately resign from office.

Just imagine if this would have happened when George W. Bush was in office.

Obama will need to nominate someone to take Geithner’s place then....some kind of financial guru who can fill Tax Cheat Timmy’s size 6s....

I nominate Mitt Romney.

“Fire Tim Geithner”

Silly, simplistic, scapegoating.

This follows the same moronic “reasoning” that those in urban areas follow. When a city goes to crap, all the liberals meet and put their heads together trying desperately to answer the question, “What OTHER liberal Democrat can we elect to solve these problems?”

They cannot see that their bigotry and ignorance insulate them from potential solutions, like electing someone who is not a “liberal Democrat.” But no, it MUST be a liberal Democrat.

Firing Turbo Timmy will have NO EFFECT.

The problem is not with Timmy, it is with the FEDERAL RESERVE.

We need to first audit the hell out of them.

Once we blast a hole in that wall of their fortress, we need to shut them down completely and ELIMINATE CENTRAL BANKING FROM OUR NATION AND FROM OUR ECONOMY.

Oh, to be sure, the central banks will make the American people pay for daring to take back their liberty and their prosperity.

ARE WE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO ENDURE?

No trust in current representation, So in no way will I accept a Constitutional Convention because anything can happen.

Any ways the Constitution is fine its the representatives and the American populas who have forgotten the face of their founding fathers (I like the Gun Slinger series). We have become lazy and need to fittin up a bunch.

The biggest failure in the country right now is the media that got Obama elected in the first place. A pack of partisan hypocrites claiming to be “Journalists”.

Hah! What a laugh.... They make me sick.

We need TurboTax-Timmy-Deer-in-the-Headlights Geithner to stay on the job as court jester. He is both an albatross and millstone around Mr. Soetoro’s neck.

The problem is at the top. Tax-Cheat Timmy does need to go... but the Naked Emperor must go as well.

And they’re working overtime trying to prove this IS NOT obama’s or the dems’ fault.

If Geithner had any honor he’d offer his resignation before 0900 Monday.
