So, what’s bad for the goose is bad for the gander, a specious argument at best if it’s meant to justify what Mark Block did.

What on earth does Tim Geithner have to do with this article? Is bringing him up just an attempt cast aspersions at a Obama appointment?

Just so we’re clear, I think that the so-called mistake Geithner made should have disqualified him to be U.S. Treasury Secretary on the simple grounds that he was supposed to be an expert on all matters financial. From what I remember reading at the time he said that the mistakes with “careless” and “avoidable” but “unintentional”. But articles said that if any of us made a similar $34,000 mistake the IRS would have been far less lenient.

These two Republicans are par for the course. When the race gets down to the last stretch, we will see more of the hypocracy and two-faced background of all the candidates.

A criminal past? I was expecting to read he served in Congress.

I think the supplied photo with this article fairly sums up the situation concerning these two political grifters.

It must the smell of them tasty pulled pork sandwiches served up by the U.S. Treasury ‘deli’ that’s drawin’ these two ol’ boys to D.C. …no? / : |

It was just announced that Washington DC has surpassed San Jose (Silicon Valley) as the richest city per capita thanks to high paying political jobs and the concentration of lawyers around our nation’s capitol. That’s just sad.

Money has corrupted politics to the point where only those with the very lowest morals seek office in the first place.
