Lil' Timmy Geithner Owned by Kevin Brady

Quote from Landis82:

Geithner worked for Stephen Friedman at the NY Fed. Everyone knows this. It was Friedman who worked at Goldman Sachs, not Geithner.

And as far as your Bloomberg article is concerned highlighting the decision to pay back various counter-parties to the AIG credit default swaps ($440 billion) in FULL, rather than .40 cents on the Dollar ( which is what ONE counter-party was willing to agree to, not all counter-parties ), you conveniently ignore articles that discuss all of the uncertainty surrounding allowing AIG to go bankrupt at the time; as if there was another realistic and quantifiable choice/response by the Fed given the environment that the financial markets and economy were in last Fall.

You also fail to mention that the decision to make the counter-parties whole and avoid lengthy and uncertain litigation was essentially HANK PAULSON's, and Tim Geithner was merely a "soldier" used to execute PAULSON'S decision.

You really need to stop throwing a bunch of crappy "generalizations" out there and do some homework and have a solid understanding and command of the FACTS before you try and present your claims and argument. Otherwise, your continual misrepresentations and "sloppy" presentation dramatically lessen the credibility of your posts.

Crappy generalizations....
Geitner was merely a foot soldier....
sloppy presentation......
Stop drinking the juice! i'm not trying to win over the jury... this is an internet thread ! oh and by the way I dont want foot soldiers running my government, you may and you may think it was ok for them to negotiate like they had no choices. They had a choice its too bad GS needed the additional money. You guys and your condescending BS is too much. Foot soldiers, you have got to be kidding , in charge of the New York Fed. Bite me and my sloppy presentations. Well George Bush what a sly little fox he was installing beuracratic hacks , who dont know any better to run our government institutions. Hank Paulson and Geitner and gs and aig took care of the situtation too bad they did such a great job for the "bank" of GS. There couldnt be much juice left could there BE? Sloppy presentations come down from mount argument and have a cup of tea. By the way does it seem like i'm really trying to make persuasive arguements? This subject matter doesnt require alot of thought and if i have you a little just think where you wuld be if i spent any time on this!
 
Labia82 is desperately clinging to any and all rationalizations, no matter how absurd, in a vain attempt to avoid having to face the cold harsh reality that he fucked up supporting Obabma and company.
 
Quote from Lucrum:

Hang around with a conservative crowd do you? Not saying your lying but it's a little hard to believe in your case.



Don't pussy foot around it sounds like you are saying I'm lying. I'm in West Texas and most everyone here is conservative and the law of averages makes most of my friends conservative. The people are good people just screwed up in their political thinking.
From my experience in a conversation with someone about work, family, sports, hobbies and most everything, you can't tell who is conservative or liberal, we're all pretty much the same in our day to day lives. We go to work take care of our families, have a beer with friends, we all live our lives pretty much the same.
 
And to think timmy isnt even from illinois! Timothy should resign! His services are no longer needed! He can receive his pension for the rest of his life ,probably 40 years, we will pay him, and try to pay off the trillion dollars of debt he and his predecessor thought would be a good idea to incur!
 
Quote from Landis82:

You seem to get CONFUSED awfully easily.

I would suggest that it is because you are lazy and sloppy, and just don't have a very good command of the FACTS. And yet you continue to talk about those of "us" who are biased and not

YOU seem to get CONFUSED awfully easily yourself!
Timothy is biased not you you bonehead! this thread isnt about you , it was about Geitner! WTF. LAZY and SLoppy? Are you drunk? What the hell are you talking about my generalizations for......
I bet you work for GS! GS employees have always been a little uptight about the littlest little thing. Descendants of the Queen of England, I have always thought. Imagine my disappointment when i found out they were just cheesy chums of the Head of the New York Fed.

It's okay I am completely able to empathize with your frustration, thanks to viewing "Forrest Gump" and "the jerk".
