"All of this going on now in Washington is a disaster."
That is what you get when a democrat is in charge. Especially when they are everywhere from top to bottom. The children are in charge now. After everything goes to hell in a handbasket then everyone will want the adults back in charge; this should occur in 2010 in congressional races. So watch for a major comeback from the Republicans. As stupid as the majority of Americans were in voting this excrement into office, I refuse to believe they are that stupid to put them back in, then again...

My concern isn't the
$165 million in bonuses but the second round of bailout money. AIG was the conduit for a second round of bailout to Goldman Sachs and certain Banks. The figure is close to
$70 billion! Let the counterparties return this money...especially from overseas.

I am so glad. That was more than a disaster happening. All of this going on now in Washington is a disaster.

You're absolutely right! This whole AIG bonus issue could have been handled differently and certainly better by all parties concerned, including the government. But now to use the current public outrage, largely created by the media, as an excuse for introducing this
very dangerous legislation is underhanded in the extreme and should
also produce an outrage...

Right you are. It seems that the ordinary citizen is losing rights, one by one. Slowly, in the hope it's not noticed; but still happening.
