"Tim Geithner hasn’t paid his income taxes and doesn’t have a clue what to do with the bull he is riding"

It had been quite a while since I saw Timmy speak. I usually change the channel when he is on. So I decided to see if any residue of intelligent thought had evolved in his mind over the past few weeks. Watching the video of him "discuss" any fallback contingency "plan" with Chris was like chinese water torture. The guy cannot answer a simple question. "Where is your plan in case of default??". Nauseating having to see Chris throw the softball question again and again only to have Timmy bleat half-baked evasive answers ("the repubs want a default, yada yada, we believe the repubs will do the right thing and give us our silver platter, yada").

Totally clueless mouthpiece for Obammy.

My condolences to you for your recent self inflicted pain.

I could hardly bear to watch it! He is so clueless that he must have said about 20 times that the administration wants the debt ceiling raised so that it won't come up again until after the election. Obama has tried so hard to sound above politics, but Geithner revealed the true reason Obama refuses to sign a shorter term increase. Of course, those of us who are not “blinded by the light” that is Obama know that already, but I was still surprised at how often Geithner repeated the word election in his comments.
