AIG Bailout Disaster - Inexperience?

Inexperience we can believe in...After the fact, Obama now wants to pursue our millions of tax dollars that went to AIG bonuses! This is going to cost even more taxes in legal fees since he is now doing this on the back end. This could have been prevented altogether if only he included the stipulations in the package!

So I ask YOU America....at what point does Obama take accountabilty???? 4 more years of THIS????

We cant another 4 years of this. Obama is pure hell on America. The news used to report various things going on in America, but since the elections & thereafters all we hear is Obama.. Obama... Obama .... That dude has to go !

I think Obama is incompetent and driven by liberal ideology. This is a deadly combination--deadly to our economy.

He may not have known about the AIG stimulus clause, which makes him incompetent because his party and treasury secretary all knew.

the stipulations were specifically removed so that AIG could get the bonuses. Obama himslef got a bonus of 106K from AIG inthe form of a campaign contribution

The answer for that is, go to a mirror and ask to the reflex from the mirror,DID YOU VOTE FOR THAT HALF ONE LEG MUSLIN AFRICAN HALF COMMUNIST WHITE TRASH KENYAN? If the answer is yes, beat hell out that reflex or hit it with your on head!!!

President Barack Hussein Obama has called the bonuses that AIG paid its employees an outrage, but Comrade Obama himself received a bonus of sorts from the insurance giant — more than $100,000 in campaign contributions.

No idea at all. Utterly baffling. It is common knowledge that company bosses are a bunch of thieves perpetually seeking to line their pockets with bonuses and perks even as they are firing employees and downsizing the company. Surely it would have occurred to SOMEONE to find out beforehand about AIG's policies regarding rewarding its company heads? Okay, so you just found out. How are you going to apply this knowledge regarding the remaining payouts? Or is this going to repeat itself?
