Geithner vote of 60-34 (near strict party line), Gibbs' Press Beatings, Pelosi's $300M for abortion, Obama's "I won so shut up" -- The speed with which the Obama Administration is going down is breathtaking -- and wonderful!

I’m thinking that we have here a list of the Republican Senators who don’t think they can stand up to the IRS audits that all the ones who voted NO can expect now.

So the title should be changed from “No Repub Support” to “Almost a Full Quarter of Repubs Support Tax Cheat for Treasure Secretary.”
What a useless, pathetic bunch of wusses. Unbelievable.

Wow. This came from Byrd? Amazing.
Had he not been nominated for Treasury Secretary, its doubtful that he would have ever paid these taxes.
His staff aides nailed it. I suggest we all call any senator who voted for this cheat and ask if we can get a pass on a portion of our taxes due this year.
This was an immoral vote for anyone who voted for the confirmation. Confirming a tax cheat/fraud to head up the IRS because our country needs his "expertise"...... is like saying well, our principal may be a pervert because he has child porn on his computer, but he's such a great principal, we must keep him. Our district needs a great principal.

One of my most important goals is to restore credibility.
That is why I am nominating for Treasury Secretary an
elitist, greedhead, tax dodging, crooked Wall Street shyster."

Republicans need to vote against all of these bad decisions. Or maybe pull and Obama and vote "present". That way they can't be be blamed for voting against legislation, either.

This proves my point. Although, I was surprised by some of the closet wimps who were exposed tonight, it just goes to show we cannot trust politicians. Tonight was proof that term limits should be mandatory.
They had the audacity to spit in our faces by voting for an exposed tax cheat crook. They thought we would accept their b.s. about it being a mistake. They must really think we are dumb. They might have a point because they are still in office.

Should we all send them a pack of koolaid to protest?
Or would be accused of sending them a mysterious powder through the mail?
How stupid can these guys get? Voting for a tax cheat to head the IRS????

I agree. Another good question to ask of the "fine" senators who voted yes for the tax cheat.

Isn't he the "crybaby" who broke out into tears on the senate floor? Yes! All over John Bolton going to the UN. He was terrified for his grandkids or some nonsense.

1) I was shocked he broke with his brown noser Graham, 2) how are all you my-wayers liking Obama’s abortion moves lately.
