It’s not clear that he’s going anywhere any time soon though Dick Bové has already stamped her seal of approval on Jamie Dimon’s nomination for the Treasury Secretary’s replacement. But, the analyst cautioned, while JD is hands down the best man for the job,* and Obama wouldn’t be out of line simply locking TG out of the building and turning his office over to JD, the president must go about getting rid of Geithner carefully. Jazzy Jeff-style, while tempting, is not going to cut it. Firing Geithner requires a gentler touch, and a glowing letter of recommendation.
“The president must support his secretary and at the same time figure a way to ease him out of his position,” the analyst explained. “So what is the solution? Clearly Mr. Geithner must, at some point in the next few months, be moved to a very prestigious position outside the Treasury.”
Unfortunately, the CEO slot at Bank of America is unavailable. So what then? Blankfein’s fluffer? That’s certainly prestigious though I doubt he’ll get the gig. Dancer at Beamers Cafe, Stamford’s premiere leisure and entertainment facility? He’ll apparently need to bring a valid passport or state identification to his audition but it doesn’t say anything about needing to have your taxes in order, so that’s a possibility. Stan O’Neal’s caddy? Shepherd? Throw some ideas out there, he needs options.

THE SCROTS OF YEARS GONE BY
The golden bells, how they toll
I heard them clang, as I strolled
Along West St., the garish new building;
A testament to foul art and hot-pink brushed kings
And though it were, and how it may
Thee golden bells deafened and dismayed
Mesmerized by their angelic song
I climbed atop the Irish Hunger to sing along
But like sirens, they drew me near
I had to retreat, 200 West St. to leer
But as I crouched, on hand and foot,
Blankfein’s balls, they buried me like soot
And though I tried with all my might
the balls, THE BALLS, they gave great fight
Smothering my face, elfin ears crushed by weight
Wondering how I fell for this 1185 bid bait
Thus is life, and thus is dreams
Smothered by balls, wading through cream

[...] Remember last year, when not a day went by without people claiming Tim Geithner was getting fired and the White House had supposedly all but forced him to move into an office in the basement where the pipes leaked so that they could prepare the place for Jamie Dimon, who we were to believe was TG replacement? That died down for a bit, in part because Geithner’s pussy outreach program was pretty successful and also because he came in handy for pick-up games. Mostly, though, it was because Obama and Dimon’s relationship hit the skids and the President needed to find someone else to make Geithner worry about. Allegedly he has. And his name is Mike. [...]
