GOP lawmakers bring out their pitchfolks to call for Geithner's removal.


Some of the GOP lawmakers that are too busy wanting Geithner' head on a platter need to put down their pitchforks and focus on dealing with the financial crisis. Pointing fingers from both sides are not helpin to deal with the issue.
TPM:
Rep. Connie Mack (FL) became the first Republican to call for Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's resignation over the AIG bonuses controversy, a call quickly seconded by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA). House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) took the middle ground by warning ominously that Geithner is "on thin ice."
Of course, Republican outrage at Geithner is to be expected. It's the lukewarm support coming from Democrats that should most concern the Obama administration.
