Geithner just did a Gonzales !!!!

[dixiegrrrrl]

" I would never..not ever...do anything that would benefit any specific party" in these matters.

In answer to question if Liddy of AIG who came from Goldman Sachs should have been picked for AIG.

Remember when Alberto Gonzales said exactly the same thing.
"I would never ever ever do anything angainst the law"

1. except I believed him

2. One difference

I kind of believe Geithner. Not only that, he isn't, at least not yet, a petulant asshole that should be slapped awake with a rotten fish every morning for the rest of his life.

Not fair IMO either to compare Geithner to one of the greatest assholes ever to infest the Government of the United States of America when he hasn't even had two months in position.

on edit: He never said the "exact" same thing as Gonzalez in any case.

3. In any case, he did seem to "protest too much"

What was that that Freud said?

4. There's a BIG difference!

Geithner is a much bigger crook than Gonzales.
