WASHINGTON - Today, Congressman John Sullivan (R-Tulsa, OK) and two of his colleagues, Reps. Allen West (R-FL) and Bill Shuster (R-PA) sent the following letter to President Obama requesting that he ask for Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s immediate resignation. The text of the Sullivan letter is below:

“Dear President Obama:

The recent decision by Standard and Poor’s (S&P) to downgrade our nation’s AAA credit rating has left our economy on the brink of disaster and created economic turmoil across the world. The American people have lost confidence in your Administration’s ability to manage our economy and major changes, starting with the resignation of Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, must be made. We request that you ask for Secretary Geithner’s resignation immediately.

This is the reason that Obama does not want anyone in DC right now. The fewer people there, the fewer people demanding Obama take responsibility for today's economy.

Good news. If you are going on offense, don’t stop. DEFUND socialist collectives foreign and domestic. They are the root cause of every problem that we face.

Geithner is a millstone around Obama’s neck.

Let them sink together.

Obama and Geithner should resign and flee to a country where the US does not have an extradition treaty.
