Frank Rich says this might be Pres. Obama’s Katrina moment. That would make Tim Geithner PBO’s Mike Brown.
Which in turn might make some people’s blood run cold to hear the president say of Geithner, during his 60 Minutes interview broadcast this evening, that: “he is doing a terrific job.”
[snip]
Whereas in the case of Katrina, Mayor Nagin and Governor Blanco bore much of the blame, in this case it is Geithner alone who apparently pushed to make the AIG bonuses, the ones that PBO has called an "outrage," legal. That's what the president calls a "terrific job"?

“Frank Rich says this might be Pres. Obama’s Katrina moment.”
I think it’s worse than a Katrina moment. I think this goes right to the top. More like a Blago moment for Barry.

and the cat 5 hurricane running smack into New orleans. And the fact that New orleans is like a soup bowl.
But now back to the topic...

Geithner to Announce “Toxic” Plan before 9:30 AM ET
by CalculatedRisk on 3/22/2009 07:54:00 PM
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will meet with reporters shortly before the 9:30 a.m. opening bell for trading on the New York Stock Exchange. ...
Geithner is expected to announce a plan in which Treasury will use $75-100 billion from last year’s $700 billion Wall Street bailout.

There isn’t enough dough to sequester all the bad debt. The buck is going down down down and we are all going to suffer.
Oh, qualifier: The Overlords won’t.

Your days are numbered Geithner. Maybe you could write a book exposing the Obozo administration’s reckless financial and economic policies...would probably be a huge bestseller...maybe...

Maybe you could write a book exposing the Obozo administration’s reckless financial and economic policiesActually, he should! And yeah... I can imagine that this will be a bestseller because you know... conservative buy books and listen to the radio... while liberals watch sit-coms and have no clue...
