The Tim Geithner China Comedy Tour

I guess the Globe didn't get the joke: Chinese students laugh at Geithner's assurances

You won't be laughing when you are finished, reader.


"Global recession seems to be losing force, Geithner says" by Associated Press | June 1, 2009

I'm so tired of hearing the recession is over from the guys who brought it to us and then lied and hid it for 10 months.

And NOW they say we are out of it! Pfffffffffttttt!!!


BEIJING - Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said today that the global recession seems to be losing force but that it will be critical for the United States and China to institute major economic reforms to put the world on a more sustained footing.

Why should we believe globalist solutions when those geniuses got us in this mess and dismissed anything else anyone else had to say?


The Obama administration's chief economic spokesman was using his first trip to China as treasury secretary to pursue closer economic ties with China, seeking to turn the page on years of acrimony between the two countries over contentious trade issues. Geithner had told reporters on his way to Beijing that he wanted to foster the same kind of working relationship with China that the United States has enjoyed for decades with major European economic powers....

Come on in to the fold, said the globalist wolf to the chinese, well, they aren't sheep, but I've heard the chicken is a cat, so....


--more--"

Ah, that wasn't really funny (neither are the poisonous food products imported from China); however, I'm not trying to be funny.

Neither was Geith!


"Geithner reassures China US will solve deficit crisis" by Martin Crutsinger, Associated Press | June 2, 2009

BEIJING - Judging from the reaction of the college students, Geithner may still have some explaining to do.

Yeah?

(Blog editor's note: the Globe omitted the ha-has)

Some students wanted to know whether China's holdings of $768 billion of US Treasury securities - which makes China America's biggest creditor - were safe, given projections by the Obama administration that the deficit for this year will soar to an astronomical $1.84 trillion, four times the previous record....

And?

China's investments in the United States "are very safe," Geithner told the students. "We have the deepest, most liquid financial markets in the world."

Yeah, yeah, AND????

If YOU can FIND IT in HERE then YOU are a BETTER PERSON than I!

And NO, I am NOT LAUGHING!!!!
