DWIGHT—Geithner is a smirking chimp and a sociopath.

I have NEVER “reported” a person. Dont really believe in it. But, could you keep them shorter so I dont have to make my hands sore scrolling past them.

Usually Wall Steet doesn’t pay off the president until after his stint.  With Reagan it was a ranch, with Clinton tens of millions in speaker fees.  Obama shold really clean up afterwards given all the taxpayer money he is giving the ruling class.

re: DwightBaker

Your country first comments are ridiculous. May I suggest checking out the Barlett and Steele piece on Timothy Geithner. Lawrence Summers helped create the economic disaster this country is in, and there is nothing altruistic about this arrogant nincompoop coming to the alledged rescue, despite any cut in pay. Your analogy about a pay cut in millions is absurd. You are talking about people who receive higher salaries than 98% of all Americans. As B.B. King might say: “I’m getting some outside help that I don’t really need.”

Timothy Geithner was numero uno at the New York Fed, which means he was supposed to be keeping an eye on what the Wall Street bankers were up to.

Truedigger3 and Kdelphi—-Thanks for your humanity.
I wish I knew more about Jason but he won’t respond
to my questions.  One of those silent types.  Perhaps, he gets his handout working for our competent honest government.

Jason,

Life is full of nasty surprises!! So, show some
compassion and humility or take a hike and don’t
come back.

When I heard Larry Summers mentioned, despite my misgivings about Sen Obama, I was truly amazed. To add Geithner, just makes it wotse.

The US Govt is a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs.

P.T.—wasnt Geithner the NY Fed????

Jason!! I disagree with christian most of the time, but, you are a heartless basterd. What do you suggest the uS do with disabled people? I hope you get hit by a bus.

Remember, you are only temporarily able bodied.

As all Federal employees are repeatedly reminded by ethics personnel, when you are in charge of funds, you are expected to recuse yourself even if there is only the appearance of a conflict of interest. $8 million, most people would agree, constitutes at least such an appearance. Mr. Summers, who after all was very much present at the creation (of the legal framework that gave us the recession), should recuse himself from any action related to resolving the crisis. That is not my opinion; that is Federal regulation.

Timothy Geithner’s personal history has been in the bureaucracy.  He’s not a Wall Street banker.

Jason—-I would be receiving a lot more if I hadn’t
been forced into disability.  What do you do to earn
your annual handout?  Let’s be honest Jason?  Yes,
I did vote for Obama and it was for selfish reasons.
His campaign promise was to cut all income tax on
social security for people making less than $50,000.
I’M STILL WAITING!  Sadly, the way the government is
“handing out” trillions to Wall Street and Bankers,
I’LL BE WAITING A LONG TIME!

It is said that Timothy Geithner is not from Wall Street.

However, he thinks like Wall Street does.  That is how he advanced to where he is.

No, I would not buy anything from him. Hopefully he will commit suicide or just drop dead. And isn’t it coincidental that these current ‘multiple mass slayings’ of late don’t include those like summers et. al.
What I am reminded of is that is looks like the modern version of the vast migration of europe to north america, only it is pricks like summers and his ilk that are ‘financially’ going to the next promised land and taking it from the people.
Need I remind anyone that this is still part of that war that has been declared on the people and the way to hopefully get around this is to treat it literally as such and come up with a plan to retalliate or defend ourselves. Not much is more personally serious than having some group of evil criminals declaring war against a person or people.

voice of truth,

lol! good catch.

What else is new. It is the revolving door as usual.
It is a very sorry and deplorable situation that eroded the public trust in its governmnent
and public institutions.

Jason

There is a serious flaw in your line of thinking.  Obama administration members don’t pay taxes, so their millions don’t support anyone’s handouts.  That’s up to the rest of us.

And they hired a speech and communication coach for Geithner.  Now his beady eyes don’t dart as much. And he lies at a slower clip.  Welcome to “managed democracy”.

christian96,

His taxes on that 8 million pays for your 40k annual handout!

Now if you put that doctoral degree to work and joined the corrupt Obama party, you might earn millions and can pay for another persons handout.

I bet you voted for the corrupt Obama party so you could get a higher handout. While that might be true, you are only empowering the corrupt so did you really gain anything?

Just look at the guy.  Would you buy a used car from him?  Would you trust him with your money?

8 million!  Wow, that’s a lot of money.  I make less
than $40,000 on my disability.  I pay $2,000 yearly
for medication, another approx. $2,000 on medical
costs, and give aprrox. $3,000 to charity and a whole
lot to Uncle Sam to protect me.  I am not complaining.  There are plenty of people much worse
off than I am but they probably don’t have Master and
Doctoral degrees like I do.  What I would like to know is:  What does someone do with $8,000 dollars?
Can one of the famous talking heads on TV interview
Mr. Summers and ask him what he does with $8 million
dollars?  Now, that’s one program I’ll watch!

Isn’t it marvelous that the economic court jesters of the ownership state, can secure such lucrative income from speaking fees.
