"Geithner Unable To Run Treasury: Also, Now Has Kidney Stones"


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I have suffered several kidney stone attacks over the years. The pain is EXTREME.

However, I is my hope that Geithner’s surgeon is a republican, that has recently suffered a costly tax audit and the ravages of Obama-care.

Possibly so.
They will begin by going through the colon and then on through the esophagal tract and then into the brain where the kidney stones reside.
(Doc flunked basic med, but they approved him for this procedure.)

Never in my life have been in pain so badly.And that was when it was traveling to the bladder from the kidney. It was small enough to pass with no problem.

I don’t wish that pain on anyone.

Hmm, interesting variation of Schadenfreude. A literal translation of that would be 'vagina delight'.

Now, Quag, you are a freeper in good standing. If you wish to remain so, rethink your position.....this is turbo-tax-cheat Geitner.....he deserves to have to piss a stone, like the rest of us.

No need for an apology - just gave me a good chuckle, that’s all.
