The chance of me keeping my job is this small.
Tim GITE-ner shows off his talons he sharpened on the Brooklyn Bridge on his way to school where he became the 'talonted one' who one day would be called on to fight to keep the mighty Yankee Dollar afloat!
Geithner demonstrates how he is going to go all Jack Bauer on AIG.
Fixing this economy shouldn't be too hard–when in doubt just rely on the old Magic 8 Ball!

Seemingly unphased by the latest in the AIG saga, Geithner charms a tough audience with his favorite rendition of "The Itsy Bitsy Spider".

I told the AIG CEO, to play fair!
So, I called Liddy over, placed one hand on either side of his neck and told him "make them give it back, please make them give it back!"

Geithner describing the government bailouts as a bomb waiting to explode.
I bet you 165 million you can't pull my hands apart.
...all king's dollars and all the king's men couldn't put the economy back together again.
My health teacher always told me to use my stress ball in times like this but I can't find it! My hands are missing it so much they are hoping it jumps right into them!
Geithner experiences a "Hulk-like" moment because of the stress of the AIG controversy.
Not only is being outside the inner circle embarressing....now I have been put in charge of controlling the squirrel population on the Whitehouse grounds.

First, you get $787 billion in Federal Stimulus money. Then you mix it in a little taxpayer disbelief and in 5-10 years, you get a recovery.

This is the Geithner Grip I've developed to grapple with AIG and evil forces trying to undermine the economy of the United States.
The photographer from "Beat 360" keeps following me...........It makes me so aggravated, I wish I could "Strangle" him!
And if those AIG guys refuse to pay back the money, I'll just put my hands around their neck like this...and squeeze.
Change is alright, but I prefer paper money. I'm going to get myself a printing press and make a batch!
Just think about it, wouldn't the Final Four be better played with a basketball this size?
Obama has just "THIS MUCH" confidence in me...
Don't worry – AIG will pay for our suits from the next Stimulus Bill. Dodd has added the amendment behind closed doors.
Geithner: This is what I want to do to those greedy AIG execs and the U.S. economy.
And then we crush, crush crush the AIG executives.
The President told me I'd better get a grip in a hurry. How's this look?"
"Larry, if we take all the big banks and squeeeeeze them into a little box, in essence we're reducing the size of the problem...right Christine....right?
I crush your head!!!
This whole situation just makes me what to ring the necks of AIG Executives, and possibly my tax preparer.
Hi there, we are your Mormon Missionaries. May we give you a lecture?
Unless of course you watch Big Love.
I tried grabbing the bonuses from AIG but they were too slippery for my grasp!
I used to run a nice lemonade stand when I was really young... wonder why I didn't hold on it...

mr president said : i can almost kill the ceo's from ( aig ) with my bare hands .
"Master betrayed us. Wicked. Tricksy, False. We ought to wring his filthy little neck. Kill him! Kill him! Kill them both! And then we take the precious... and we be the master!"

You see, my plan would be called The Great Geithner Sphinter Shrinker Plan.
Well yeah wow you could show some enthusiasm after all you won The Publisher's Clearing House's Bailout sweepstakes!
I could strangle the President for picking North Carolina in the White House pool. That was MY pick, that WAS MY PICK!!!
"This is how we can shrink AIG's bonuses."
I can crush a beer can, but trying to get thoses bonuses back is like trying to extract water from a stone!
