Who would be willing to succeed Timmy? Maybe Obama could kidnap someone and make him be treasury secretary.

Good one, Timmy

Geithner: S&P showed terrible judgment



What do treasury secretaries do these days that press secretaries can't already do?

Typical liberal...no shame or embarrassment over being a complete failure.

That's because the only criteria for a liberal is that he MEANT well.

Obama might have wanted to oust Timmy, but when he called around, no one would take the job. Who the heck would want to be in that hot tub with Obama and the dirty crowd in his administration?

Reminds me of Obama's veep search. And he finally wound up with...

Hey! Maybe THAT's the solution! Send "Bite Me" over to Treasury!

well we have to hang it round obama’s neck like an albatross.

While it is tempting to cross out a few of those words to change the meaning, I fear the post would be removed and I, your humble correspondent, exiled or banished. That's all I gots to say bout dat.

Of course, if the stock market keeps on tanking, Geithner will be punted out of his Cabinet post in no time flat, in my humble opinion!

A mis-direction for dramatic effect, it’s a play on Republicans

Timmy was told to stay in place to serve as the WH whipping boy should things turn ugly...I mean really ugly.

Also, the last thing Barry wants is to have to nominate and confirm a Treasury Sec. right now. Just imagine all those embarrassing questions regarding the WH economic policies.

You guys are completely missing the point, there's no embarrassment or failure here, these guys are high five'ing each other, this was the plan all along, I'm serious, things are going better than even they could have hoped.

I’ve been thinking that, too. It has to be the plan, nobody could be this ****ed up by accident.

Well, who the F*** would want to take the job under Obama? He’s stuck, you couldn’t get a homeless crack addict to take that job now.
