Cliff Kinkaid of Canada Free Press asks a question no one in the U.S. media has asked: Who’s pulling Geithner’s strings?:
Appearing behind a podium that proclaimed, “Financial Stability and Recovery,†Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on Tuesday carefully read from a teleprompter and provided what his flack said was a “comprehensive†plan. It was not comprehensive in any way. It seemed so amateurish and shallow that the market dropped and commentators and senators were almost incredulous at the lack of detail.
But what were they expecting? Geithner doesn’t know the details because he hasn’t been given them yet.
