Cut and Run.

And yet another of the Obama administration's economic gurus is choosing to exit, and not stick around to face the consequences of his contributing "work"...

Geithner, like Orswag, Goolsbee and Summers before him, will probly end up in a cushy secure job of no consequence, where the end result matters less than the lofty reputation of having "served in the Obama administration."

It's like, do we still have to pretend we're losing something big when these people finally drop out of the game? *Looking down at my scorecard.* "Um... why?"

Perhaps in the future,
the country would be better served by randomly selecting 10 names from the D.C. phonebook to serve as economic wonks and advisers. Plus, what are the odds that any of those 10 would have written off their kids' summer camp as a legitimate "daycare" expense?

Don't let the door hit yer skinny ass on the way out, Mr. Geithner.
