Tim Geithner Has Some Fans!

He likely plied them with free Beast the night before but this still counts!

Geithner stepped onto a stage last week in Milwaukee, where unemployment is about 12 percent, and told 200 cheering college students that “it is excellent to be away from Washington.” “I didn’t really even know Secretary Geithner before the event,” said Allen Brown, 23, a senior from Germantown, Wisconsin, who is majoring in marketing. “He was very impressive” and “reiterated the point very well” that a regulatory revamp is needed.

Of course, he still has some detractors but whatevs, haters gonna hate. Plus, this kid wants to work in HR when he grows up. He's being trained to hate life and make you want to hate life, too.

Zach Wambold, a 21-year-old from Watertown, Wisconsin, who’s studying human resources management and political science, said Geithner “didn’t offer as much to show his expertise in the field as he could have.”
