Poor Timothy Geithner

Good Ol' Charlie Brown Timothy Geithner, as illustrated by the inimitable Drew Friedman for the New Republic.

He should do America -no, the world- a favor and resign. Now.

The guy is rather cunningly and boldly ripping off America on behalf of the bankers.

Charlie Brown is far too sympathetic a character.

Poor Timothy Geithner?

Poor U.S. citizen after he's done with us. He and The Wall Street I-bankers, The Too-big-to-fail commercial banks, the private equity thieves, and the hedge-fund mob.

When Geithner's plan is implemented, we're sunk.

If all of the policy objectives are enacted, the national debt is likely to increase from about 40% of GDP today to close to 100% of GDP by 2018. Poor taxpayers.

I can't wait for the Obama administration to take over for these incompetent, power abusing members of the Bush staff.

Thankfully we have the crack staff at boingboing keeping a watchful eye on abuse of power and government attempts at stiffling freedoms and they're willingness to call them out on it.
