GEITHNER: 'I Have Been The Most F------ Transparent Secretary Of The Treasury In This Country's Entire F------ History'

Well, well, well...

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has quite the mouth on him.

In Neil Barofsky's new book-- "Bailout: An Inside Account of How Washington Abandoned Main Street While Rescuing Wall Street"-- Geithner drops a few F-bombs in his interviews with the former Inspector General for TARP.

Here's an excerpt from "Bailout" that was pulled out by Huffington Post's Mark Gongloff. (Note: We've edited some of the language)

"Neil, I have been the most f***ing transparent secretary of the Treasury in this country's entire f***ing history!" Geithner erupted, in an episode that had Barofsky wondering if Geithner was going to "throttle" him. At the time, Barofsky was the special inspector general in charge of oversight of the Troubled Asset Relief Program.

And here we go again.

"'No one has ever made the banks disclose the type of s**t that I made them disclose after the stress tests. No one! And now you're saying that I haven't been f***ing transparent?'"

These egotistical *******s are all smoking crack.

Like everything with Timmah, he mixes a little bit of truth with a big lie. I am going to expose myself to an FASB audit ala Timmah and show you things I've never shown to anybody!!

Here is my house. My modeling of the expansion of my sunroom has determined that eventually I will end up with this.

Here is my basement. I have determined through extensive calculation and modeling that the dust bunnies therein will transform thusly.




Here is my bank account. Through a thorough vetting of future revenue I have determined I can increase my wages 100% every quarter.

It's justifiably immoral to deal morally with an immoral entity.
If you trade based on what other people say, you will lose money. Especially what I say. I won't be held responsible. Festina lente.

To be fair, Timmah committed the majority of his crimes before he was SoT.

About the only transparency I've seen in the current administration is in the teleprompters.
