WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on Tuesday said that time is running out for a deal to raise the debt limit, and wants a broad agreement with Congress in place by the end of next week at the latest.

Bite me!
The Republicans should call in sick for two weeks and go golfing.
Little Timmy wants a deal eh?
Maybe rather than simply demanding we continue to feed all Gov't demands for money, he and his colleagues should do some work to figure out where they are going to make cuts so that they don't have to borrow any money.
Do NOT raise the debt limit!
There's an expression that starts, "You can want in the one hand......."
> The Republicans should call in sick for two weeks and go golfing.
Good idea.
Excellent time for Republican congressmen to take their summer vacations out-of-country in places where there are no cell phone services and no internet.
That’s one right out of the Demon-commie-cRAT playbook.
It looks like someone has changed a headline.
Drudge has this up:
GEITHNER DEMANDS DEAL IN 48 HOUR
The story doesn’t match the headline.
Did Reuters change it?
Here it is on another site with Drudges headline

As far as I’m concerned, there has already been a debt limit deal made some time ago. The FedGuv has failed to stay within it. No need for a new debt limit deal; just live within the old one.
What office was Timmy elected to?
One of the backers of the Keynesian Stimulus that didn’t work either...
Geithner wants debt limit deal by next week?
People in hell want ice water.
Duz he have a planned vacation that is in jeopardy without a deal?
His suggestion to Boehner was to go golfing at BHO's favorite course
to get BHO's attention that the Pubbies are serious.
And as an after thought, Boehner should invite Rush along to guarantee
that BHO would take notice.
Dont believe any of it for a second.
STFU Timmy. Here’s how to shut up chicken little:
Why dont the Republicans pass a bill that requires that the Treasury pay interest on the debt first? I know that this is probably redundant constitutionally, but such a bill would force the Senate and 0bama to take a stand on this issue and expose the apocalyptic claims by Timmy, the Dem operatives & media as a total fraud!
Hey Timmy, sit down and STFU. You are part of the problem. For damn sure you aren’t ever going to be a part of a solution. You don’t have the stones to resign.
Geithner wants debt limit deal by next week?
Perhaps if Timmy had paid his taxes in the past we could take this a$$hat seriously.
Exactly. And we want someone in his job who is competent and not a tax cheat. Has that problem ever been resolved?
BS
Running scared.
