My not-so-subtle point is that Summers and Geithner are not the problem. Obama is. He’s the one who has to go.

Obama will be gone in 2012.  Summers, a premiere Warshington jackal, has already concluded that Barry is dead political meat.  He will now satisfy his unending appetite for thievery and corruption at some other location.  More rats will be jumping ship.  Obama will sip his wine and thumb through the pages of Martha Stewart Living, waiting quietly for the ignominious end to his short political career.

Good riddance summer f**ker. But what is this?

““Administration officials are weighing whether to
name a prominent corporate executive to replace
Summers to counter criticism the administration
is anti-business, one person familiar with White
House discussions said. White House aides are
also eager to name a woman to serve in a high-
level position, two people said. They also are
concerned about finding someone with
Summers’s experience and stature, one person
said.”“”

So instead of hiring someone with some initiative
to handle the financial terrorist whore houses, o
is once again faced with ‘not offending or
appearing anti-business’ which won’t make a
difference with those terrorists. So, it won’t be
anything more that replacing this creep traitor
with a clone of sorts of another creep traitor.
Damn ain’t o amazing? Not a done deal and he,
just like pelosi in 2006(impeachment off the
table), o will try to mollify his and this country’s
antagonists with just another pile of the same
shit.

There is no other more decisive evidence that o is
being told who to put where and when those who
want who they want in key positions. Other
words, as if it needs saying, o ain’t his own man
in his job of head of this country. May as well pull
bernie madoff out of the clinker and put him in
charge.

Is he “exploring other opportunities” or “spending more time with his family”?

Why wait, Larry? GO NOW!

so what

the new guy is of the same cloth

the person matters little

this administration is married to the wrong policies

Tick tock Barry

I suppose the revolving door between government and big business will kick
Summers sorry ass into some sweet corporate position at Goldman Sacks of Gold,
or some other similar firm…

Obama’s “loss” is only relative, Truthdig. It’s a transparent sop to the Dems right now, but after the election, Obama can elevate Rubin to fill Summer’s post. Or perhaps he will demote Geithner to fill Summers’ position and appoint “Hank” Paulson to the position of Treasury under the pretext of working hand in hand with a new Republican Congress.

My not-so-subtle point is that Summers and Geithner are not the problem. Obama is. He’s the one who has to go.

damn!!  what a scheer column (last wednesday’s) can do!!! 

Good riddance! Now, maybe Obama can get a jobs program going. To wit:stop Wall Street and corporate America from offshoring jobs and start an FDR-type jobs program just the way FDR did it (and it worked!) with deficit spending a la Keynes.
Still time to do something big before the 2012 elections and get yourelf reelected Mr. Obama.
