LIAR 'Turbo Tax Timmy' Geithner Says, " Obama administration is on your side"...LMAO
Administration to Tea Parties: We're on Your Side
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said in an interview Sunday, when asked about the Tea Party protests, that the Obama administration is paying more attention to the deficit than the Bush administration did.
Tea Partiers, the Obama administration is on your side.
That's been the message from the White House over the past few days, as top officials dispute charges that Washington is on a spending binge and encourage conservative protesters to count their blessings.
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, when asked about the Tea Party protests, said in an interview Sunday that the Obama administration is paying more attention to deficit and spending concerns than the Bush administration did.
"We've just been through eight years where many people said deficits don't matter. We can pass huge tax cuts, pass huge new programs without paying for them. That debate has changed fundamentally," Geithner said on NBC's "Meet the Press."
"You don't hear people say anymore deficits don't matter. You don't hear people saying we can pass enormous expansions in government without paying for it. That's an important change."
And President Obama said at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser Thursday that Tea Party activists should "be saying thank you" to him for the tax cuts passed by his administration.
The change in tone comes as surveys show distrust in the government is rising to historic levels. A Pew Research Center survey released on Monday found almost 80 percent of Americans say they don't trust Washington.
President Bush ran up a $458.6 billion deficit during his last full year in office. Obama ran up a $1.4 trillion deficit in fiscal 2009

" Tim Geithner said in an interview Sunday, when asked about the Tea Party protests, that the Obama administration is paying more attention to the deficit than the Bush administration did..."
Is this guy serious! Bush average about $220 billion yearly budget deficit. These current clowns just ran up a $1.4 trillion dollar budget deficit!
The sheer magnitude of the scope of the debt and liabilities commitment Obama and his Regime has thrust upon this nation won't truly be known until long after the November Elections, probably even to after 2012.
I am so sick of how they can claim "Bush Did It" in one breath and then tell us that they aren't spending any more money for all this wonderful new entitlements, in fact SAVING us money in the next.
YO Tim , Go peddle your political BS somewhere else.
Just one other thing, the Tea Parties are not only about Taxes, they are also about a lot of Consitutional things that Obama and his ilk are messing with.
And check this out below. On the chart, look at the line that reads, ‘Treasury Department.’ That’s the interest on the debt. Notice the blue bar? That shows how much money went to paying down the debt. The current pink bar above it shows significant ‘shrinkage’ as it were. *SMIRK*
Nice try, Timmy!

....Thank you Richard for sending this to me.
