Did Congress delegate authority to Geithner to appropriate money?

My only hope is that his fate follows that of the same minions in any horror movie about the Rise of the Devil...somewhere before the Devil gets whacked by the righteous, the Devil disembowels his minions. Why? Because that is his way.

Probably my fault... ever since being laid off I'm not paying anywhere near the taxes I used to pay. It starts adding up after a while.

So, go ahead, just blame me. :)
