Barack Obama Super Pissed at AIG

The American International Group (AIG) has no shame!

U.S. President Barack Obama expressed outrage on Monday over hefty bonus payments awarded to employees of insurer AIG and said he directed his treasury secretary to take all legal measures to block them.

Insurance giant AIG received some $173 billion in government bailout money and is now paying $165 million in employee bonuses.

He's got no right to be pissed. first - as "bonus" money, close to fifty percent goes straight back to the government in taxation. Second, he let Pelosi give away all that cash without requiring any strings of any kind. So shut up already Barak H. Obama and all your stooges. Not buying your false sense of outrage.

I am more outraged at Obama's foolhardy Treasury Secretary - he is the guy Obama put in place to monitor the taxpayer investments like this. The fact we the taxpayers found out before he did is priceless. And this is change we can believe in? 4 and out for B.O.
