2. Meanwhile Geithner would probably still stand by his decision to avoid

offering Americans relief from the Government and Financial Institution-caused indebtedness of many American states.

Already at least 36 states are facing massive deficits. And like Tim told Ahnold Schwarzenegger when he asked for a friggin' loan from Geithner "No can do."

But far better to give the rich tax cuts, and give Israel more plunder snatched from the Middle Class tax payers here.
