• Cayman Investments Were Previously Not An Issue For Top Treasury Post

  Republicans could make hay out of Jack Lew's Cayman investment, but noticeably took no issue with Henry Paulson's.

lots of things were never an issue before, before there was Barack Hussein Obama in the big chair now twice, sour grapes, or just juvenile acts by te right wing?

how can this possibly be an issue for the right, the man they put forward as your President to be was steeped in Cayman's probably owned real estate there and various ports around the world, this guy was vetted and the incident was publicized, unlike their guy who only revealed what he wanted after months of request and we still don't know if it was everything.

An investment Jack Lew made in the Cayman Islands has been flagged as an issue in the Treasury secretary nominee’s vetting by the Senate Finance Committee, according to multiple sources close to the confirmation process.

The White House says the investment was previously disclosed and is already a public matter.

Republican staff “have told us that there are concerns,” said Sean Neary, a spokesman for Finance Committee Democrats. “This came out through the vetting process in prior confirmations. Once it was looked into deeper, it was determined that it was not an issue. Lew has been completely transparent and forthcoming through any and all questions that have been posed.”

all this opposition to the Pres. picks are more to slap him then credible reasons to deny. the republican Inquisition is rearing it's ugly head again, progressives need to put forth legislation that makes those "never found anything" witch hunts post how much money they are spending on their quest to nowhere like Palin's bridge, and make them liable foe waste and restrict their budgets to prevent gross over spending, they do the dirt then try a sweep it under our rug.

“That Mr. Lew had an investment in the Caymans from 2007 through 2010 will likely draw questions during his nomination hearing,” said Antonia Ferrier, a spokeswoman for Finance Committee Republicans.

Lew has been confirmed by the Senate three times in the past — twice by unanimous consent. He was confirmed as director of the Office of Management and Budget under both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama and as deputy secretary of State under Obama.

Republicans have been critical of Lew since his nomination was announced last month. Sens. Jeff Sessions and Orrin Hatch have questioned his role in Medicare policy decisions and his role at Citigroup.

pot kettle syndrome, just because they pretend their dirt never happens they continually forget "it's on video tape stupid"

they really need to keep this up so when they implode i would love to hear how the Pres. drove them to extinction, with Beohner doing the narrative.
