Geithner...You're Fired!

How’s this for thinking outside the box? Mike Huckabee visited the cast of Fox & Friends this morning to talk about the disastrous economic downturn the nation took yesterday as its credit rating sank, and had a suggestion or two for replacing one of those upon whose shoulders lay the most blame: Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner. Paramount among those? Donald Trump, who he suggested should be given 90 days to turn the economy around.

The Donald would definately get the job done!
My choice would be Thomas Sowell, but I’m not holding my breath.
Not that he would take anyones recommendation, why help this pri#$ in any way. We don’t want to see a surprising comeback and another 4 years! period!
Geithner...You're Fired!
Will the media really discuss this tomorrow...FOX excepted??
I’m thinking he could replace Geithner with Casey Anthony and see an improvement.
I’m sure the Sunday talking heads will see the necessity of QE3...you know, there just hasn’t been enough government spending...SHEESH!
sidesplitting :-)
I don’t trust Trump any more than I do Geithner.
Need to replace everyone!
Amen, you have a smart answer.
Show business and personality cult crap. We have gone over the cliff but are too obsessed by celebrities to notice. What BS.
The Secretary of Treasury is expected to obey his boss, the president. Donald would not do that and thus would never be selected.
Agreed...this isn’t a reality show.
This is why I wouldn’t want him anywhere near the WH:http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/04/18/trump-just-another-liberal/
From the dek of Governor “Obama Can Go To Hell” Paul LePage:
Governor LePage’s Statement on the U.S. Credit Rating Downgrade
August 6, 2011
“It’s clear now, Congress and the White House antics over raising the nation’s $14.3 trillion borrowing limit has cost Americans. The U.S credit rating downgrade from AAA to AA+ will deeply affect our Nation in a way that we have not experienced since 1917.
The political posturing and last minute decision by Congress proves to be part of S&P’s downgrade. Using debt default as a bargaining chip rather than putting our fiscal house back in order was an enormously risky maneuver that failed. It is a major setback for our future and economic credibility of our Country and it’s time our leaders in Washington start working to get our economy back on track instead of worrying about upcoming elections.”
In addition, spokeswoman Adrienne Bennett offered, “Maine has chosen to do the right thing in not taking on new debt and reducing our unfunded liability long-term. Maine has done exactly what S&P’s John Chambers said is what Washington should have done. We can take away a very valuable lesson from this downgrade decision, in that, it is important to not separate the budget process from debt authorization. In order to achieve fiscal stability we must examine both and acknowledge the impact they have on our State.”
No, Goldman-Sachs should replace obama with Donald Trump

He could replace Geithner with Donald Duck and it would be an improvement.
