Yea, what the fuck were they thinking appointing Geithner to be in charge?

According to Wiki, Geithner and Prez O had some previous ties. Then again this is wiki, so I don't know how accurate this is.

Perhaps Geithner helped Obama's mom out when she needed help or something, and owed him a personal favor? And got Geithner in office, since he was close to the position anway? I don't fucking know...

All I know is that Obama is losing control, and is not the man in shining armor we all 'HOPE'D he would be. But he did open new doors and made us believe in the possibility that all things could happen. I mean, we elected a black president in America, where Palins roam and Bachmanns prowl. That's quite a feat in itself.

But here's the real question: What if that president that stood for everything good, and everything you believed in, is letting rich criminals out of trouble scott-free, doesn't know how to control his own government, while you are still struggling to hold your job?

Some fucked up shit, ain't it?

Come on! We need to look forward--not back!


History is something not to dwell on if you have all the power. Everyone has to turn towards the glorious future and those who were beat by the stick need to walk it off. Fuck this country.
