Forget the backtaxes, the real problem with the Geithner appointment is that he was the one who allowed the Lehmann Brothers to collapse, sending the world into a recession and getting Obama back up in the polls again. I was kinda sceptical of my own theory, but now that this new relationship emerges and that the both these guys had roots way back in Indonesia, I am certain now. Not that they will have the balls to fight, but Republicans should definitely probe into Geithner’s decision to sink Lehmann at a very convenient time.

He mentioned she was involved in micro-financing, though that’s not actually what it was, since the Bangladeshi economist who came up with the idea won a Nobel Prize in 2006. That’s just typical Obama BS. Sounds like she pushed cut-throat loans on developing nations, possibly working for Bechtel, Halliburton, etc. Obama’s parents were probably both intelligence recruits.

Yes, Judgement? Wasn’t Obama running on his great judgement?

Right!

[...] Timothy Geithner has real taxing problems. It seems he forgot to mention that he didn’t pay taxes from 2001 – 2004 to the tune of $42,000. And then there is the problem with the former housekeeper with the expired immigration status. Geithner paid part of the back taxes in 2006 while letting a large chunk go unpaid until November, 2008, right before Obama won the election. Nothing transparent there. And I agree with Larry Johnson at No Quarter, Geithner Has To Go! [...]

Why wasn’t Geithner’s paycheck garnished? Is there a lean on his home? Why weren’t his bank accounts raided? Why were his penalties and interest waived by the IRS?

Another note: Accountants and tax software do not miss self employment taxes. They are taxed at a higher rate as well. So you see it isn’t a mistake it is gross negligence and unreported income. (The reason he wasn’t charged with tax invasion because the IRS is supposed to be a kinder and gentler organization….I kill me…lol!)

If it were you and I all of the above would have happened to us. Regular Joe and Josephine Taxpayer have to complete a mountain of paperwork to get penalties and interest removed….and every receipt must be accounted for!

The elite and government workers like Geithner get all the breaks.

I am not kidding about all of the above either. I am a tax preparer!

Funny how the media knew Joe The Plumber owed $1000 in taxes in less than 24hrs but never knew Michael G little secret. I wonder if Joe Biden still thinks it’s patriotic to pay taxes? The Tresuary secreatry should withdraw his name.

Michael major problem though is that he was the person in charge of New York Fed, yet he could not regulate CitiGroup. CitiGroup collpase occured under his watch. Where was the oversight?

I am tired of the media being apolgist to the educated elite when they screw up.

Additionally, The New Party stated it also sought “the democratization of our banking and financial system – including popular election of those charged with public stewardship of our banking system, worker-owner control over their pension assets, community-controlled alternative financial institutions.”

Many of the New Party’s founding members were Democratic Socialists for America leaders and members of Committees of Correspondence, a breakaway of the Communist Party USA. Obama attended several DSA events and meetings.

Evidence has emerged that Obama belonged to a socialist political party that sought to elect members to public office with the aim of moving the Democratic Party far leftward to ultimately form a new political party with a socialist agenda.

Maybe that creep (Cousin Ordinga) will organize a church burning while he is here? Of course he didn’t do the actual church burning — but it was done in his name.

Gee and Cousin Ordinga wants to make Kenya a haven for terrorists?

BACK to the subject of the article:

Andy Martin has a few words about Geithner’s selection and the SEXISM of Obama.

Andy reminds us of how a WOMAN — Zoe Baird — was run out of DC for similar tax problems.

However, since Geithner, has the “experience” organ (penis) — he will undoubtedly get a pass for his non payment of taxes.

Obama is a sexist pig.

It turns out that MS magazine is pissed at those of us who are disgusted with their current cover of Ms magazine — (showing Obama — as a “feminist”). Shall we celebrate MS mags quick trip to bankruptcy?
