What's the difference? Tim Geithner is approved on January 26th to be the US Commerce Secretary while Tom Daschle is eliminated in the running of Secretary of Health and Human Services. These have two different results, but they are both essentially involved in the same crime: not paying taxes.
This raises a few questions:
Why is Daschle hurting Obama's agenda while Geithner is vital to our success?
What part of Geithner's job is so important that he is not accountable for HIS actions?
Why is it that no one else in the media is mentioning Tim Geithner in this situation?
Is this what we are to expect during this term?
I want America to be great. I want an ethical nation that has morals and standards that is a cut-above everyone else. I want our president to be successful, because that means that the American people are successful. I am thankful that he is willing to take a stand to admit when he is wrong, but what about the decisions that he doesn't discuss. What about Tim Geithner?
Is it the president's sole responsibility to step in here in the Tim Geithner situation? No. We need to look to Tim Geithner. It's the same type of situation as the elderly man in Michigan who froze to death in his house because the government regulated his electricity and his heat shut off. Some tried to blame the neighbors. Some are blaming the Veterans Association. Some are blaming the government. No one is taking responsibility.
Tim Geithner, on behalf of those who want to see a better America, do the RIGHT thing and take a step down.
