Lack of Confidence
In Tim Geithner et al.

Timmy's such a disappointment.
    How'd he ever get the job?
He's prob'ly even started
    calling Mr. Rubin, Bob.

He's a "Sorcerer's Apprentice"
    when we're needing Harry Potter.
And now you're going to tell me
    that his wife's his boss's daughter.

Perhaps that's it. How else could Timmy
    end up at the Fed,
Thinking banks were in the black
    when they were in the red?

Then buying Goldman's claims
    that, having hedged with AIG,
It must be made completely whole
    with Federal do-re-mi?

How many more for-instances
    you think it's going to take
Before CNBC discovers
    Timmy is a fake?
