This pointy-eared elf is not funny. Ruining the US economy is not funny.

Geithner, please be a man and stand up to the socialists in this administration. I’ll bet there is an acceptible answer that doesn’t include funding a west-afr!can dance troupe, tattoo removal, and a study on how to make pig sh!t smell good.

This SNL Tim Geithner skin was about as funny as the banking crisis itself.

In other words, it was crappola beyond reason.

If they want to use satire, they would have had Democrats Chris Dodd-ie boy and Barney Fwank and Franklin Raines calling in offering to give ‘liar’ loans to everybody in America so ‘we all would be equal and rich.’

The sad story probably goes something like this:
Geithner is the mule for both Obama and Soros’ plan to take down the financial markets and any other industry where Soros and his cronies can make a few billion with hedge funds. Soros will then fund the socialist/democrat party into oblivion while we’re still waiting for the “stimulus” plan to work.
My humble opinion is that no one has been hired to work with Geithner because they might spill the beans.
SNL is a comedy TV show and nothing more. Most Americans take it way to seriously. They cross the line most of the time but with Obama and Geithner, who cares?

Eliminate the “Mark to Market” outdated accounting standard, reinstate the stock market “Uptick” rule to slow short sellers, Re-insure the bond insurers with TARP money, LOWER taxes on anyone making over $250K, put tape over President Obama’s mouth. Solved – do I get the 410 billion dollars?

Looks like old Bart is spending too much time watching SNL… ‘Three’ stories about SNL…

You do realize that the “stimulus” plan, besides the 60% corrupt pet projects it’s funding, is simply US paying for THEM.

How is this going to stimulate anything? It simply offloads the banks bad decisions onto us. So they’ll be happy and we’ll be fk’ed. They just printed another 500 Billion out of thin air for the FDIC. They are near bankruptcy themselves.

Time to start over kids. I will sooner eat a bullet than become a communist led by the spawn of islam.
