Mr Geithner standing just outside The President's inner circle.
Why am I the only one who has to stand this far away from the President?
I'll be ok.. I'll be ok.. as long as they don't ask me to explain "credit default swaps"..

"I can't wait to ask Dr. Phil for his advice. Cramer's advice didn't work out too well..."
"Mr. President, I'm not standing any closer until I get my bailout."
Maybe they'll forget I'm here and I won't have to say anything...
"I'd like to thank the academy for.........."
This reminds me of third grade though he didn't give me a dunce cap to place on my head
I promise I won't give up until the economy is better!
Tell me the truth...do I have the stink of failed economic policy?
Does the Obama administration stand behind the judgement of U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner? A picture says a thousand words.
Hurry up...I really have to go!!!

I'll hold it till we "Beat 360" or till the economy turns around!
Ah, Mr. President,
Crisis of confidence: a worst crisis we already passed!
I know I bear a striking resemblance to Robert Kennedy but that is where the similiarity ends- I have no desire to run for President.
"Do these flag make me look slimming?"

The president asks those in attendance to try and get along with Timmy.
hey you! put your shoe back on!
Hurry up, Mr. President...Limbaugh is making a move for the last jelly donut!
It's the stunt double crew for Spin City!
i call this look magnum
Inner monologue..."Hmmm...No one sees me here when Obama's talking, maybe I could just back out slowly, and no one will know!"
Secretary Geithner: “I hope he won’t be too long...I’ve gotta use the bathroom!”

Wait a minute! There's Oprah!
I wonder if they didn't pay their taxes either...
Josh, San Jose, CA
I sure hope Doc fixes the Flux Capacitor, soon! I need to get back to the future ... of this economy!
Obama introduces the new Tim Geithner robot. It has as much personality as the real Tim, more charisma, and it has never cheated on its taxes.

Hurry up! I've got to pee really bad!!
I should NOT have tried picturing everyone in their underwear. Stupid, stupid mistake.
There's got to be something about this in Schoolhouse Rock..."I'm just a bill".
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner poses for his new Facebook page. Status: What W-4 Form?
"I knew I shouldn't have called cash call"!
Just checking, very slowly and carefully, to see if I remembered to zip up, and hope no one notices.
"And that's the explanation Timothy gave me for not paying his taxes; oh, and no, he doesn't require a booster seat."
What?? It is not my fault that President Obama took out a restraining order against me.
Mr. Geittner is stunned after being referred to as Secretary Frodo.
"I musta had me 'bout thuh-teen of them there Dr. Peppers... ...I gotta pee"
Obama: "...and to save on our budget Timothy here on my right will do some Irish dancing for your entertainment"
Oh Geez! What's that AIG lawyer got in his hands, I hope its not a noose...:(
That can't really be a torch back there! It is! How did Rush Limbaugh get in here?!

The punishment of standing back here is better than the last one. The last time I had to write one thousand times, I will pay my taxes.
The headlights of the economy have caught Mr. Geithner.
I think I forgot to use deodorant this morning.....if I keep my arms down like this and stand at a distance maybe no one will notice....
"let's see... 20 steps to the door, two more to a phone, does pizza hut deliver here?"
Maybe if I stand back here they won't notice that my ears are bigger than Barack's.
How long do I have to stand in the "Time-Out Corner?"
