To Recover AIG Bonuses, Lawmakers Scramble to Undo Protections They Approved
Though Connecticut Democratic Sen. Chris Dodd is among those leading the charge on retrieving AIG bonuses, an amendment he added to the $787 billion stimulus bill last month created a roadblock to getting that money back.
Now this is some funny shit,
Chirstoper Dodd writes an amendment to the stimuls bill protecting the bonus money that was “guaranteed” before 2/11/2009 and now that it’s been paid out and found out and
there is public outcry over it (as there should be) his own bill is preventing them from getting the money back.
Talk about having something blow up in your face, I bet Barry O is fit to be tied right about now.
FWIW the linked artilce states that the Senator that got the most campaign money from AIG – yep thats right Chris Dodd.
An ole Chris was gonna repay the favor by stacking the deck only the deck has just crashed hard on his head.
As I said, that’s funny right there, I don’t care who you are .. that’s funny
