   Coward, the lot of them. And the most disappointing of all is Senator Cornyn whose phone lines have been ringing off the hook with Texans demanding that he vote against Geithner.

   When our own elected representatives fail to dance with them that brung them, why are they so surprised when they were not invited to the dance in ’06 and ’08?

   So that man who cheated on his taxes will now be in charge of the very agency that makes sure you don’t cheat on yours.

   WE ARE SCREWED.

   Now that the ethically challenged are acceptable for cabinet level positions, it won’t be long until everybody will be required to grease palms to get anything done, just like in other third world countries. How’s that old saying go….You can take the boy/girl out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the boy/girl. All of Obama’s associates, since childhood, have been terroroists, gangsters, malcontents, and other rebellious nonconformist types. Just where did you think he would get his advisors? He doesn’t know any honest, decent, patriotic people to put into these positions. You can take a pig out of it’s wallow but it will make a wallow of wherever you put him. And he is working on it. We are struck with this clown for 4 years. Get used to it.
