First...tax dodgers
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's Treasury secretary says the administration will unveil a series of rules and measures in the coming months to limit the ability of international companies to avoid U.S. taxes.
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told the House Ways and Means Committee on Tuesday that Obama will propose legislation to limit U.S. companies' ability to shelter foreign earnings from taxation in the U.S. He also said the administration will try to limit wealthy Americans' ability to use tax havens to avoid taxation.
He did not immediately provide details.

Barack Obama lavished praise on the 'special relationship' between Britain and America last night - but only after giving Gordon Brown a distinctly muted reception.
The Prime Minister's first official meeting with the new President fell short of the lavish welcomes laid on in recent years.
Secretly cozying up to the Ruskies...
Russian President Dimitry Medvedev's comments came in response to a New York Times report that US President Barack Obama had written a secret letter to his Russian counterpart offering to halt the planned missile shield, which would be located mainly in Poland and the Czech Republic, in return for Moscow's help in stopping Iran from developing long-range nuclear weapons.
So much for transparency in this administration...
Damage control was on in full force again after attacking critics from the media like Santelli, Limbaugh and now Cramer...
Finally, the One showed his ignorance on things economic...

Isn't it apparent that the country (i.e. the media) was drunk on making history?
