Not trying ...

To pee on Barry's sunshine, but over the past few weeks, it's becoming evident his financial folks might be in a bit over their depth. Either that, or they've been trying to protect their pals on the Street:

...

Anyway, I guess no one could have predicted that Geithner and Summers would screw the pooch, except for everybody who was horrified that Obama put Geithner and Summers in such sensitive positions. Should've left 'em out in the wilderness where they belonged. And now they're even lying about the position and lying about whose fault it is. Creeps. They should be fired immediately.

...


Because I'm pretty sure they had a hand in this:

...

Dodd did not indict the administration in his comments today. He didn't name any names and he said that he didn't think AIG was on the radar at all at the time. He was being a good soldier, as he was when he agreed to the changes thinking he was compromising. But at some point he may have to name names since somebody in Washington is determined that he take the fall for these bonuses and the press is on the hunt to prove that the Obama administration has been lying about when they knew about it.

...


I'm sorry, but the minute AIG accepted taxpayer funding, the board and all the officers should have been out and the books laid bare. A lot of bad shit's been hidden in this big deal and the bonuses could be just the beginning.
