Why Geithner and Holder don't deserve confirmation per Alexander Hamilton - unfit character:

"To what purpose then require the co-operation of the Senate? I answer, that the necessity of their concurrence would have a powerful, though, in general, a silent operation. It would be an excellent check upon a spirit of favoritism in the President, and would tend greatly to prevent the appointment of unfit characters from State prejudice, from family connection, from personal attachment, or from a view to popularity. In addition to this, it would be an efficacious source of stability in the administration."

Both have shown they possess unfit characters. Geithner by cheating on his taxes; Holder by being a rubber stamp for the Marc Rich and PR terrorists pardons.
