Just goes to show you that if you try to scapegoat a software program for your own financial incompetence, they’ll encode your stupidity for life. Please tell me they named it the Geithner Gambit?
Big deal–it didn’t stop the liberal Timmy Geitner from getting the job. In fact, it was probably because he is a government cheat that Obama liked him in the first place.
It is pretty scary having Geitner and Obama running the economy. They are probably cooking the books to skim off money to support Obama’s Kenyan cousin, dictator Adewale Ogunleye.
Id like to see TurboTax catch that.
The usual: do as I say (tax code) and not as I do.
So this confirms for me that Triumph is spoof like ZRIII.
Triumph has always been a spoof. Zels…well he’s either batshit crazy or the best satirist of our age.
Awesome. Great burn!
“So this confirms for me that Triumph is spoof”
What took you so long?
Just for the record (and I’m certainly no Geithner fan), but he never tried to scapegoat TurboTax. One of the senators asked him if he used tax prep software, and he replied, and then clarified that it was still his own fault.
