Geithner: Obama's debt deal very difficult to reach

[LoveVanillaRose]

Geithner is a FUCKING LIAR!!!!!!

[ElPikacupacabra]

@LoveVanillaRose no he isn't man

[LoveVanillaRose]

The People need to take control back from this Fucking De Facto Government!!!

[reverenceforall]

Transparent Tim, the Congress is a joke, a dog and pony show for the prople and the world.

[StrafingMoose]

Heh, what a straw man. If the debt ceiling did not get raised, the government would NOT have defaulted. Some assets would just have been sold to pay for liabilities.

[SLFinSF]

Secret crush: Tim Geithner. (weird to think the Sec of the Treasury is hot -- but I do!)

[caveatemp]

@SLFinSF This is appallingly scary and inappropriate thinking -- let alone to publish it online. Very, very, very scary. You do not ever wish that any official of the U.S. Government is a sexual object, whether you agree with them or not You need to stop and take a serious, LONG look at yourself and straighten up. The man is a criminal bankster and will receive no conjugal visits on death row.

[splicedenergy]

@caveatemp Shut up cave. Stop being judgmental. Fucking nutter

[caveatemp]

@splicedenergy You want me to shut up and call me a nutter. And I'm the judgmental one? We are both judgmental but you are in cognitive dissonance. 

[splicedenergy]

@SLFinSF I think he's hot too, you are not alone

[54queenbeemimi]

blah,blah, blah...they talk and talk and talk but never resolve anything..you wait senior' and poor will take the blunt ....i have already lost my job of 40 years. lost my house and at my age and bad health I have not been successful in obtaining a job.....and I know I am not alone in this situation.....

[doogleandalix]

@54queenbeemimi

You got it - screw over the people who have worked all their lives and put into Social Security for 40 years . Why not cut the pay of Congress - the most overpaid people in the world ? Why not close all the loopholes that allow GE and other corporations to pay zero taxes ? Why not bring our troops home and save trillions instead of playing policeman to the world ? How much more will people put up with - Ron Paul says we are serfs - he's right .

[MegaHouseGuy]

What a tool mr timothy is

[workingclasssociety]

domestic terrorist right here!!!!!

[Fronte999]

55 million get Social Security checks now. 70 million are going to switch from paying FICA on two levels, 180 degrees, to collecting it instead over the next 10 years or so.... there's only about 400 million people in the USA, minus 120 million collecting instead of paying FICA..... and the wealth fund is already running in the red..and that program faces almost no big cuts at all compared to Medicare. I think I get it.

[Fronte999]

the everyday american hasn't a clue as to how big the spending cuts are that the Democrats have already put on the table, nor how big the balance sheet issue is or that there even is a balance sheet issue!

[2012vote]

In 2006 both Obama and Reid voted against raising the debt what a difference an election makes. Watch this

"Harry Reid in '06: Raising debt limit last thing we should do, will weaken country, hurt economy"

[3dartistguy]

too bad the president won't sign off on repealing Affirmative Action since it keeps people unemployment if they don't fill a government mandated racial quota. higher taxes on the wealthy isn't going to grow the economy or create any jobs. employers need to be free whom they want to hire, the best qualified person, not by way of their race and gender....its time to make the tough decision by REPEALING Affirmative action or Reverse dIscrimination.

[ctone1111]

@3dartistguy You're an idiot and a racist! I guess this problem gives you a chance to point the finger using your bigoted infrared guidance but have you considered that its the policies of Geithner and Bernanke along with the Wall Street banks purposefully wreckless spending that has caused this deficit? You can eliminate every single dollar for welfare, social security, unemployment and medicare and it wouldn't even be a drop in the bucket in terms of the deficit! Get Wall Street indited fool!

[3dartistguy]

whatever dude. I believe in equal opprotunity for all, not Affirmative action. Im not the one defending Reverse Discrimination, you are by falsely calling me a rcist... I agree with you about Geithener and Bernake, but WHO appointed those bozos? We don't have a Taxing problem, we have a Spending problem. Washington spends way too much, and they've been spending way too much for the past two and half years...100 million for thise, 700 trillion for that, and nothing's worked! especially not AA!

What is the penalty for treason?

[catalinaguerrero]

@ronpaul2008rocks death. geither should be sentenced and executed.

[ajx352]

The US needs to go in default, maybe then the reality of borrowing more than you can afford to pay back will come into focus. They should not keep borrowing, raising the debt ceiling, and putting this on the backs of the nations children and grandchildren to fix this problem.

[Fronte999]

at 9:10 "the rating agencies have already made it clear in public", with stress on "in public" meaning, as anyone would guess obviously anyways but it's interesting to hear it spoken so plainly, Geithner and the rating agencies have a schedule and if this is the last call if anyone is listening!

[LilSpankey93]

"Dont play politics" Fuck The GOV 12ON PAUL

[dkkght46]

I see no reason to compromise, and I doubt their is much common ground. The House already voted against raising the debt ceiling, So they can wait to see what the Senate does, and decide to deal with them. Then let Obama decide whether to veto the bill if there is one. Why bother dealing with Obama at all?
