Sherman Tries to get a straight answer out of Mr.Geithner regarding if derivatives being sold today will be subject to bailouts tomorrow.

3. Geithner has got to be the biggest idiot who has ever occupied this position.
How Obama could settle on him as the one to straighten up the financial mess is beyond me.

Is there anybody who understands what he's talking about?

5. The point is that NOBODY is supposed to understand what he's talking about.
That's because he's JUST BLOWING ESOTERIC, FINANCIAL GOBBLEDYGOOK SMOKE UP OUR ASSES. Just like he has been since he was appointed to his position by the Banksters.

But he definitely is not an idiot. He knows who the piper is and he's being paid very handsomely by the piper to spout fanciful obfuscations to the peons.

Yes, he needs to go. Just like the rest of the Wall Street suckasses who are in the Obama Treasury Department.

Recommend.

14. Obama chose poorly.....
Folks at the SWT generally trashed Geitner's selection from day one-and they are the economists I trust.

7. Why does Geithner hold
this office? I think the question was easily understood. It is only 'complicated' because he wants to complicate it. The tax payer should not be on the hook for a single dime of additional bailouts. If Geithner can't answer that question he should be GONE! There should be smoke on his heels as he is dragged out the door. And someone should slap him in in his fucking face on the way out the door. This is the people's government!

12. Holy fucking Christ!
If this doesn't say it all as to how FUCKED the United States is, then I don't know what does.

All you Obama apologists can lick my balls.

At this point, as Crazy and doddering as McCain was, I don't see if we could have done worse. At least with McCain and Palin, you knew that the country was going down the tubes to the sound a fascist bootsteps, but to have this inexorable march into the Slaughterhouse, and finally getting to the point where you recognize that there is no way out and the whirling knives and blood sluices are starting up all around us.

I was hoping that Obama's team may have been monitoring DU for ideas on how far they could go without alienating the nation, or at least those that at one time had supported him, but it appears that we have served our purpose, and the DLC is firmly entrenched, and is changing into their Nazi uniforms for the next phase of the We Say so Corporate restructuring plan.

This has certainly been a big news week. The Big News is that Obama has pissed on us for too long, and the game is up.
