The prez is meeting with Wall Street’s CEOs today, and Tim Geithner is also expected to get a little face time with his old pals, too. But! Apparently in advance of the reunion, Geithner is “in a closed meeting with Senate Banking Committee members,” in Dirksen 538, circa now. What do you think they’re talking about? We’re guessing a list of demands the Congressmen want Li’l Geith to bring back to the CEOs, such as “You’ll work for a dollar a year, taxed at 99.9% and you’ll like it” and “Please don’t forget your campaign donations.” Also: “Tough break on the Zen garden. We weren’t even planning on raising shit on that one, ’cause it sounded spectacular.”

I would have much respek ( Ali G ) for Geithmer is he bitch slapped Chris Dodd *snap*
I think Timmy is reminding the Senators who really wields power in this country.
Duh! Geithner wants their opinion on whether Melissa Lee will permanantly replace Dylan on Fast Money.
Is this going to be another closed meeting where they all come out as if they have seen a ghost and won’t say a word about what went on?
Day after day
Alone on the hill
The man with the foolish grin
Is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see he’s just a fool
And he never gives an answer
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning ’round
bet it’s a tickle party
#2 – It’s Maxine “Goldman” Waters, right?

Ali G would be a much better choice to lead all hearings. At least when I was rolling on the floor laughing my ass off I would know it was for true entertainment value instead. Maxine and all those other douches are ELECTED.
As long as Max is there, USA is safe!
