I actually have another view on the $165M in bonuses. So far AIG has gotten $170 billion from the government so I am much more concerned with what the h#ll happened to the remaining 169+ billion that they got. Forget the 0.97% of the money and ask what happened to the rest of your hard earned cash!!!!

Here's an interesting factoid that is not getting nearly the attention it should. Guess who who last September in our beloved government was responsible for setting up the AIG bailout? Guess who knew about the $165M in bonuses that AIG was contractually obligated to pay out to employees? Guess who knew that AIG would turn around and give $20 billion to foreign banks, $15 billion to Goldman Sachs (no wonder they said they didn't need bailout money directly from the government) and on and on? None other than our current Treasury Secretary Turbo Tax Timothy Geithner. I am betting the Messiah wishes he had jettisoned Geithner when he found out he was a tax cheat.

This is just another in a long line of Obama scandals, pure and simple. HOPEless and CHANGE for the worse!
