“I don’t think that’s the right way to look at it” Geithner really means what he says, mistake in personal taxes, maybe mistakes in job and employment growth in this year’s numbers, maybe tax increases in the proposed Healthcare Reform Bill now before Congress, but wait Geithner brings clarity with; “I don’t think that’s the right way to look at it.”
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner can not even answer the relatively soft ball questions from a moderately left leaning commentator like David Gregory on Meet the Press Sunday November 2, 2009. Is it any wonder the White House is prohibiting any of their Top Guns from appearing on any other radio or TV/Cable broadcast companies less favorable to them? To Gregory’s credit, he did make some attempt to get Geithner to answer a tough question or two, but each time fell short when Geithner refused to answer the question. Gregory needed to throw a few more punches, but pulled back instead.
Earlier in the MTP interview Sunday Geithner referred to the 650,000 to 1million job growth numbers coming out of the White House, of course that is depending on which bogeyman of this current Administration you are hearing from. I feel they are handing the American public more Tricks than Treats this past Halloween weekend with this, the Administration’s most recent employment numbers. After all when Gregory again threw a softball question about these numbers and how they could justify them up against real statistics of unemployment and job growth. Geithner once again characterized the issue “I don’t think that’s the right way to look at it” bringing up the ludicrous idea that a job saved, is job growth. Who wouldn’t want an accountant/tax man like Geithner on their payroll? Oh I forgot, he’s on President Obama’s payroll, because he sure isn’t working for the people, me, you, most Americans.
