Ted, try not paying your taxes. Use the Geithner defense.

Let's go back to what you said. You said Geitner was putting this country through something [bad], suggesting that his appointment was more of the same of what we have experienced under Bush. In fact, that's not true......at least not yet. He didn't pay his taxes until prodded.....that's not nearly the same thing as letting New Orleans go under or starting a trillion dollar war in Iraq over mystic WMDs.....not even close.

Now the irony is that I probably agree with you that Geitner may not be the best person for the job. After all, he worked hand and hand with Paulson on screwing up the first disbursement of TARP money. So, all I ask is that you not overly dramatize the situation for partisan effect. Can we agree on that?
