"Aah, once again, when it''''''''s a democrat in question, "it''''''''s an honest mistake". Yet when a republican gets caught, it''''''''s the biggest corruption scandal of the century. The only thing that will change on inauguration day is the color of the president''''''''s skin, whatever it is that day. And this is the "change" the voters were promised!

How would you call 935 "honest mistakes" ?

I guess one principle difference is that 4000 plus service members didn''t die.

auscross, what a fool you are. Obama wants open borders and amnesty for illegals. He wants to give illegals drivers licenses. Then Obamas illegal alien aunt from Kenya wouldn''''t be illegal anymore.

Hopefully Obama can find a way to make America haters like you illegal.

Obama''''''''s cronies being shown for what they are - trash.

You all voted for change your going to get it, & I bet you are NOT going to like it one bit.

First Richardson and now Geithner. Is Obama and his people vetting properly. Anyone with a skeleton in their closet should be avoided like the plague.

Shows what BAD judgement Obama has already. The man can''t even handle his own finances but Obama chose him to handle ours. 54 million people got duped and you deserve everything you''re going to get.

You know what the worst part of it is. The inauguration isn''''t even here yet and there was a time when I used to think anybody would be OK except Hillary and now I''''m beginning to feel a little whimper of doubt. Posted by swin5 at 09:50 PM : Jan 13, 2009
*** anyone other than amnesty mccain was okay with me.. I''d still rather have Obama and his downsides, rather than corporate american amnesty mccain letting corporate american and illegals get away with everything. I don''t care what Obama does, as long as rich people have to pay a more fair share of taxes, even if that means I have to pay some more taxes, just to see the walmart executives have to pay taxes is a dream come true to me

After Jan 20, we will have thousands, perhaps millions of illegal aliens coming into our country because Obama is soft on illegal immigrations. We is the author of the Dream Act, Posted by cattieJ at 08:24 PM : Jan 13, 2009
*** how wrong you are... It was the Kennedy/Mccain dream act... Obama was the one that tried putting in amendments so that it would NOT pass... It was thanks to Obamas hard work that that garbage act didn''t pass.. If it was up to amnesty mccain, there would be millions of more illegals than what Obama will let in... Amnesty mccain was even more liberal on amnesty for illegals than any democrat ever! Amnesty Mccain wanted to let over 20 million illegals get amnesty... Obama won''t let that many. Labor Unions won''t want them too... plus, with the bad economy... most have started going back anyways because of the lack of available jobs..

whoa, $34K tax evasion plus not paying self employment tax, plus paying an illegal alien under the table. If he had a business he''d be sent to jail like Martha Stewart.

Hmmm...

You know what is really troubling about this?

He KNEW ABOUT THIS before his nomination!!

Yet, he is sooo reasoning impaired he failed to withdraw his name from consideration.

What was he expecting, magic, as in close his eyes and this will all disappear?

This guy is a piece of manure and should be flushed down the toilet. He deserves the chance to swim out of the sewer or septic tank.

As for Geithner housekeeper who''s work visa expired 3 months ago, this is in keeping with Chertoff''s having illegal aliens clean his house and Barack Obama''s aunt, who is here illegally and living in public housing. We have no borders anymore. After Jan 20, we will have thousands, perhaps millions of illegal aliens coming into our country because Obama is soft on illegal immigrations. We is the author of the Dream Act, which gives free of lost cost tuition to children(adults really) of illegal aliens. Back to Gaithner, he should withdraw his name or face impeachment by the people of our United States. Folks, it may be time for another Boston Tea Party.

I guess the only way to get rid of this Geithner is for all of us to refuse to pay our taxes. Then maybe Obama will get rid of him...but Obama has decided that Roland Burris is O.K. for Senator from Illinois, (he paid somebody to play, who we dont'' know at this time, but time will tell), Clinton, who''e husband will tell you who gave him money at the END of each year, to pay to play, Richardson, who has the guts to quit while he can, and now Obama is waffleing on the war and is going to send in 30,000 more troops to Afghanastan next month. Also, how the he** can this guy, after he is selected by Obama, then decide he better pay his back taxes? This whole Obama Presendency is starting out really bad. I thought Obama, was a no drama kind of guy....sorry folks, but I forsee a terrible time ahead. Save your money, buy American and have keep your money in a safer place than your local bank.
