President Barack Hussein Obama wants us to believe Timothy Geithner is "The Man" to lead the U.S. Treasury Department. Geithner, now confirmed, admitted publictly that he "made mistakes" and did not pay his taxes. However, BHO thinks Timmy is the "Miracle Worker" (just like him) and that he will save the economy.

Robert Gibbs said earlier in a briefing that our new Secretary of the Treasury "made amends by paying the back taxes and interest that he owes."

So what is he going to do if he makes mistakes with our billions of dollars? Is he going to pay us back with interest?
