News, but not the serious kind
Smiley will now tell us a joke!
Blog Guy, I get the idea that President Obama’s cabinet meetings are a lot of fun. They’re a pretty zany bunch, right?
Most of them are, except for Smiley Geithner.
Smiley? That’s his nickname?
Yes, but I believe it’s a sarcastic one, like calling some huge guy “Tiny.”
Geithner is always scowling and giving the President the stink-eye, as you can see in these three different photos from the same event. I’m surprised the Secret Service lets him sit next to Obama.
Yikes, you’re right! Has he always looked like that?
Nah, just since he had to pay his taxes.

Am I the only 1 that thinks Geithner looks like the villan from “Billy Madison”?
How much do you want to bet that Geithner wears an Obama mask when he’s home alone…”I’M Barack Obama. I’M Barack Obama. ME ME ME!”
“Hmmm I wonder what I’d look like with that hair?”
Timmy should take smiling lessons from “LA LA” PELOSI. She certainly had a good time at “BO’s State of the Union address. Veritas/NH
Give him a break! He’s trying to fix the financial crisis. If it were me I’d not only scowl but would have pulled my hair out by now.
If he pulled his hair out he’d look more like Larry Fine of the 3 Stooges than the guy on Billy Madison…
Actually, I think he looks like a cross between the guy on Billy Madison and Kirk Cameron.
I was thinking he looked a little bit like Michael J. Fox but it could be my lousy monitor.
